How many of Vidal's goals from open play have come when Isla has been on the pitch?

Isla stays much wider than Lichtsteiner does - almost on the touchline a lot of the time, which I like - and that should stretch that side of the defence and make it easier for Vidal to burst through the inside-right channel.

Indeed, he doesnt aimlessly run into the box most of the times we attack like Licht does, fishing for Pirlo pass, actually plays a wingback, and he also varies his crosses/passes, when to play short and low infront of the defence, or infront of goal etc.

Would be interesting to hear more about his deal. From what the newspapers seem to report, it seemed like Juve were in for Asamoah for quite a while and saw that Isla was available because Inter were getting somewhere, so the dear leader stepped in and snatched him away.
