Actually he never said he is staying, or at least that he wants to stay.
I'm getting fed up with this. I think the transfer talk and hype got to his head. He was poor in Europe. If he doesn't get his shit straight, he could have rough year next season. He still needs to put in good/great performances in Europe.
And I definitely don't see the will to remain with us. One more year at tops.
On the other hand Vidal after the mess last season with United looks at peace with the prospect of remaining at Juve. Selling him to keep Pogba would be a huge mistake to me. Pogba will definitely leave soon. Vidal we must keep, he can't be replaced. The only midfielder similar to him is Nainggolan who is a prick and who Roma won't let go away to us.

I think he's definitely going to be sold by next Summer. I just hope we use the money to build a world class attack, and not 1 first team CM replacement and a couple of bench players.
At his point, if he's simply exchanged for Verratti or Isco would be enough for me. There are very few young midfielder with similar quality of his, and these are 2 of them.

I just feel his head isn't straight. Hype and transfer talk got to him, he doesn't seem to be focused enough, a la Vidal in the first half of last season.
