Weren't you the one who said that these ratings come from "football experts", which unlike ratings from forum members, are quite reliable? 
What I have said (repeatedly maybe, not quite sure, old age & all) is that the ratings of the so called experts are often entirely different from what I read on here. Don't know how that relates to either of them being more reliable. Not that I care, I'll judge based on what I see & how I see it.
For me, Vidal was good last night, just like the entire team (bar Vuci), but not exceptional. Players who I thought were more than just good are Pirlo, DP & Pepe.
I'll challenge you to find that/those post(s).

We share the same opinion about last night's match (if I'm honest, I agree with mostly everything you say related to football), except that unlike you, I think that Marchisio had an overall average performance.
I don't have the energy to look for that, but I don't think I'm wrong here.

Trust me, it's better to agree with me compared to the Gazzetta anyway. I know you wouldn't like the overall, average rating they have for Vidal so far.
I agree it's usually a hybrid of 4-3-3/4-2-4 when Giacch's in cause he often drifts out wide and then cut inside , but yeserday Ale Completely moved in center playing off Matri.
After Giacch came in he was hugging that left side the whole time and Ale was the one dropping back in center to link up. The way they positioned in last 10mins or so, it looked as if we had two out wide wingers in Quag and Giacch.

"Did a lot of work defensively" is always my favorite
Here is a good stat:
Giovinco's penalty goal in the opening round is the only goal we conceded in serie A in the last 5 minutes of the game. Just compare this to last season and how many pts we lost due to last minute(s) goals.
On the other hand, we're not too efficient ourselves in those same last minutes. Marchisio's brace against Milan are the only two goals we scored in the last minutes.
Here we can add the coppa match vs Bologna though, because we both scored and conceded in the last minute.
As far as scoring vital goals late in the game goes, Del Piero's goal yesterday was only the second decisive goal in the latest stages of the game. Previously only Marchisio against Milan scored such a goal.
If we count Coppa here too, then we can also add Marchisio's goal against Bologna and Vucinic's against Milan, both in extra time.

Even without the goal, his game was immense.
