Tancredi said Pogba is certain to move in the summer. Not that he's fully credible or anything. But with Pirlo out of it, Vidal is a shadow of himself, it'll be interesting to see what will happen to the midfield.

so fr next season we got vidal -marchisio- pogba as starters, and sturaro - pirlo, and maybe pereyra as back up.

now the asa situation is interesting. i wish he was fit sooner to see if he can be relied on as starting LB. if he can great, if not it would be interesting to see if we get a lb and move him to midfield. then we would have more than enough quality mids.

the problem is getting a reliable lb for a decent price. do we play caceres there? maybe convert ogbonna into that spot? i quite like his bulldozing run forward and he is decent in crossing..... maybe keep lord padion?

inb4 rakib tells us rodriguez or kurzwa are the solution.

i have been thinking about Vidal and his status here for a while and realized a few things. i think there are big chances of him leaving this summer and im gonna explain why. i would personally never do it but there are many factors that have to be considered here...

1st, when we renewed the contract it was only for ONE extra year until 2017 (we renewed with Pogba until 2019). now, im sure we would do everything to keep Arturo here so maybe he requested for a shorter contract so he has the possibility to eventually consider other options. maybe he wanted to leave even last summer but we convinced him with an increased salary to stay for one extra year...

2nd, this is the summer we lose no important players except for Llorente (and the rest are squad fillers; Ogbonna, Padoin, Pepe etc.). summer 2016 we lose Pirlo, Barzagli, Evra, Tevez, summer 2017 possibly Buffon and Licht. it would be better to lose Vidal now when we have no important players leaving than "lose half the team" next year with him Tevez etc. it would be unwise to do what Milan did, keep all your key players for years and let them go all at the same time, so we should start thinking about it already.

3rd, this is the mercato we not only have to potentially spend up to 60M on Berardi, Zaza, Pereyra, Romulo. this is also the mercato we have to resolve ALL co-ownerships (and we all know how many of those we have) + the league is restricting the number of players in teams to 25, so there is not much room to make major signings. this whole mercato is kinda different from the others so that might limit our options (except if we can sign someone like Jovetic on loan, but i doubt we could do that). selling Vidal (I REPEAT; ONLY IF WHAT I SAID IS TRUE AND HE WANTS TO LEAVE EVENTUALLY; OTHERWISE I WOULD NEVER DO IT) might free up a lot of wages and give us extra money to work with so we might do it.

4th, hes turning 28 soon. if he has any intentions of leaving Juve for a better (or richer) club now is the perfect time (actually, last summer was better for that but this is probably one of his last chances).

5th, he is probably at the peak of his market value, i doubt it will increase from this point on. next season he will be entering the last year of his current contract so his price would sink even more. if we consider all this, there is no better time to sell him under his current contract than summer 2015.

the best thing would be if he renewed the contract and stayed for the rest of his career here. the fans love him, he loves the club, he rejected United in the summer already, he became the best player in his position at this club. so what do you guys think? i know if i asked "would you sell Vidal?" no one would do it. but does anyone think its possible to sell him? that both parties (Juve and Vidal) might decide its over?
Well said, good points, it the the right moment to sell Vidal and ask for a ridiculus fee for Pogba, we have now enough options to replace him and he has obviously lost the determination to keep playing with us.
I doubt that Marotta can get a decent ammount for him though, making good profit from sales is still his weakest point...

$#@! you zizinho vidal is here for life
but i said we should only sell him if he wants to go (Marotta, Agnelli and co. said many times that we would only sell one of our key players if they want to go). if he doesent want to leave us we have to offer him a new contract and keep him (i prefer the 2nd option ofcourse)...

best thing to do with ogbonna is to just sell him. Last time i recall him playing left back was against real madrid last season, he was so bad that he was subbed off in the first half
