Can we at least wait for official announcement and Vidal to tell his story and Marotta to tell his than we can judge?

I don't get this people saying 'so much from being a top club, top clubs don't sell their stars' that's BS. Pirlo is 36 and was our worst player on the pitch this season, Tevez wanted to go back so badly and we know what unmotivated Tevez can do in the dressing room and on the pitch. They asked to leave, what kind of message would we send if we kept players by force who want to leave? If Vidal asked to leave which is the most probable thing than its not our fault, Marotta said they will only sell Vidal and Pogba if they ask to be sold. Plus its not Marotta's style to rush so much like he did in the last 4-5 hours asking about information about players its obvious this struck him out of nowhere. Felicevich (spelling?) is the one behind this he was pushing him to RM, Utd and Arsenal according to many papers.
Probably they won't shed much information. It will be Conte style I guess. We won't really know what made them sell him, unless he directly requested this beforehand, which I doubt.

I don't think we're getting a big signing.

Sorry but I just can't see it.

It's most likely Draxler and what a huge downgrade that would be.

Right now, as a CL finalist, Copa America Final man of the match, and ten man finalist for player of the year -- 35M is fucking garbage. He's 28.

He only hit his form the past two months of the season, that's what happens when you play on a torn meniscus to secure a points record, and then halve the recovery time after surgery to play in the WC. It took him a long time to get healthy, but he's been moving really well.

35M for him right now is garbage -- in my book.

Edit: *Would* be garbage... because I refuse to believe this is happening. :D

This draxler thing reminds me of Inler - Vidal case, Iturbe - Pereyra...

Who knows how he would turn out.

I know one thing Pereyra has great future ahead and he must use this chance (if true) to prove his worth.


Arturo regained his defensive form in the last 2 months but his passing and finishing were awful and anyone could have noticed that, in terms of attack he was never the same player.

Hust man, I think you're being a bit biased towards Marotta
I'm not even talking about Marotta.

We saw a very rough season for Vidal after a knee injury. Name me one player that maintained his value when sold after his knee went kaput.

All I'm saying is, 35m isn't a bad piece of business. We can't sell him next year at 29 and 1 year left on his contract. And we certainly can't match the 6.5m Bayern is offering him.

If this was down to money, don't you think he'd have already left? Also, why is his knee suddenly kaput? He was great for almost all of the Copa.
