Actually 30-33 is the peak of a players career

Aside from King Arturo he is known as El Guerrero

Or set money aside for “Operation Pogba”

The dragon nickname makes no sense. It applied to paulinho cos he cane from China. Vidal’s official nickname is King Arturo

People seem to be complaining that he is an “alcoholic” so my comment was based on that. I don’t know the details.

I hope the club provides him with the support he needs to overcome any alcohol problems

Multiple sources say the official announcement is imminent

It doesn’t really matter. Even if it was 30m it’s good in today’s market, and not my money being spent so who cares, Barca do not have to worry about money

£27m according to guardian

I agree he is static in offense these days aswell. To be fair to Suarez he does press but not as effectively anymore, seems to have lost some physicality.

I agree Messi is the least of the problems in that he’s clearly the best player. It’s just operating a 4-3-3 with him is tough because the right back won’t be receiving help. I would like a 4-3-3 but that is the main problem with it.

Valverde has two different 4-4-2, one was a flat 4-4-2 and one was more of a diamond shape. Paulinho played as the tip of the diamond in that formation and Vidal can do that here. Although a better option is Coutinho as the tip of the diamond with Rakitic, Busquets and Vidal behind. Still I...

If Messi showed more work rate in the pressing game then he could fit in a 4-3-3 like 2015, he dropped his efforts in that area since then and the following season when he asked to move closer to the middle, Barca had a drop in league form and CL exit. It really limits Barca’s options when he...

He left training, official announcement today

It’s not much in today’s market, digne cost the same amount Two years of solid production from Vidal are worth the price

Cojones and mentalidad are an important aspect of football, no pseudo science

I’d say it does lack character. Pique is a joke when it comes to character. At the time of the Roma exit, Umtiti, Alba and Busquets were mentally crumbling. There were other players that weren’t crumbling per se but they were tame and passive.

He should play less at Barca which maximise what he has left and gives Rakitic rest. It also allows Arthur plenty of time in his first year without overburdening him. Valverde can fuck this up but the pieces to win the league and still compete and possibly win CL are all there.

Apparently it’s a done deal now. Official announcement in the next few hours. Seems weird though as it’s midnight here in Europe, they will probably do it tomorrow. It just made me realise what time of day to teams usually announce players?
