Stop giving away your age RHD, I don't remember '90
25mEuro would be an absolute steal for him!

He failed his medical. Not sure what Monaco was supposed to do in that situation tbh.This cracks me up!
Monaco doesn't fulfil a contract, and in protest, a player decides not to fulfil his.
Fecking LMAO!
They havent been impressive, but they are in the semis, job done. Brasil, Germany, Argentina, none of this team has been impressive so far.
They knew he was injured, surely they couldn't expect him to pass it. They could tell him that they would sign him when he is fit again. It's not like he is out injured for the whole upcoming season.

They signed him before the injury, risky business. Now sure how they're being allowed to break the contract.

Haven't said he is ready yet. I just rate him very highly and I'd rather see us signing someone who will help us in the long term than splashing way more money out for a player who will help us on a short term.
Of course you have to take prices for compareable players in regard. That's how anyone values anything... Why would anyone pay a certain price for a product if he can get something compareable for less? That's simple economy.
Yeah thanks, I know that. Of course you can compare the prices, since it's not just about the transfer value but the wages also. Kroos rumored wages at Real Madrid (if the transfer goes through obviously) are 5m€ after tax - which is rougly 10m€ before taxes. That's about 170-180k a week, which Vidal would most likely exceed if he was ending up here. That makes Kroos far cheaper, which again leads to the question: Is Vidal worth 25m more than Kroos for us? I don't think so.
It doesn't really matter why a player is going so cheaply. It's our job to get the best deals for our money. And paying 50m for Vidal isn't a good deal, even though some might disagree. I'm pretty confident that if we were after him, we could get him for around 40m€. Paying above that definately is overpaying in my eyes.
That would be fine if we already had the short term, instant fixes. But we don't.
things like this are why I dont and didn't want Brazil to win it. Their over dramatic reactions to everything is too much. Scolari was saying today how they were targeting Neymar and Ronaldo was on about them meaning to injure him, just moaning about it. Not one word on how they spent 90 minutes kicking lumps out of Rodriguez
Worth it.
Oh whyyyyyyyyy can't there be at least one half-decent paper reporting on our interest in Vidal
Yep. Won't happen though, I can bet my frigging house that Bayern will come in and snap Vidal from us. Can see it a fecking mile off
Like how Carroll cost -15m.
That's our own fault. We've put ourselves in a position where we have to overpay
We overpay whoever we buy it would seem, e.g Fellaini. Rather splurge on him than someone else.
He's top class, and all the top players on history have won it and been the catalyst. Could be his year.
The contract he signed before th
This would be what Fergie would call "No value in market". Thats just a stupid amount.
Quoting the fecking Star should be a banning offence.
You'd sign for them as well if you had that bloke next to him staring at you.
Were you at the contract signing?
To be fair, not too many reports were claiming we were interested in Herrera until it was pretty much confirmed he was coming.Oh whyyyyyyyyy can't there be at least one half-decent paper reporting on our interest in Vidal
If the camera panned down to the 'contract' we'd see "HELP ME!" scribbled on it.
Agreed.
It does matter why the fee is so low, you brought up Kroos as an example but ignored the reason for the fee, if he wasn't in the last year of his contract Real would likely be paying north of £40M for him. I don't know where you are getting the other part of your post from, Juve have no real reason to sell and we are in desperate need of a world class CM, we are not in a strong bargaining position.
Dont read any reports. Just dont. Dont read anything rly. Just stay under your rock.
From a quick google search all reports say he was on 90k/week.
And posted in a Twitter thread where 90% of the tweets and discussions are nonsense.
