it is well documented that marotta wanted to bring inler from udinese, paratici identified Vidal, both including Conte were at the england vs switzerland match and decided against inler and went for Vidal instead

Where is that documented?

We don't know and we cannot know how many deals can be attributed to either, but since he's higher in hierarchy he takes more credit and more blame as well. He makes the final calls.

If people are assuming that Parattici has more merit for some signings, I'll assume that some players that we didn't bring in the end, mediocrity like Pazzini, Gila, Diamanti, are Marotta's merit, since he halted those deals in the end.

He says we, but I found this interesting:

Biggest mistake:
“The ‘flops’ are the acquisitions you remember most. I was convinced that Jorge Martinez was a great player. You learn a lot from your mistakes, because you read on the newspapers that you’re a fool. Martinez came from three successful seasons at Catania, with 30+ games and 10 goals per season”.

Seems like he was the main culprit for Martinez' purchase.
