Look, man, lets leave our differences in the past. I can understand your hate on Bravo after he made Messi his bitch in two consecutive copa america finals. MATS is quality and its a shame that he was benched by Bravo and Neuer. I’m sure when he matures he’ll be something else.

Regarding Vidal, he’s the best b2b in the world and has won 7 consecutive league titles in europe. Lets hope he continues that and add CL to his title list.

you have a lot to learn
you're trying too hard

people underestimating Vidal. I watched almost every bayern Game and is he is fit he is a top class midfielder.

He is strong, has contrary what everyone thinks a very good tecnique and has a hell of a shot. Plus he is a born fighter and not a washed lazy fraud like arda turan
For 30 Milion thats a steal.

Don't really care about him being the GOAT or even not playing the World Cup. Valdes didn't either and he's got an infinitely better resume than Bravo as well.

Just hope we don't see you crying your eyes out when Vidal starts playing like shit and everyone starts to slam him. Hopefully if he starts a Clasico he does better for us than your last favorite, although I guess it'd be pretty hard to do worse than make 0 saves while your team loses by 1...

Dude, let it go. He was two time champion and best GK in la liga 2 seasons in a row while the german kid was learning from the bench. I’m sure Vidal will be great at Barça, he’s got the winning mentality the team is lacking.

I cant wait for him to winning matches and tournaments and Barça fans surrendering to King Arturo. Then, just like with Bravo, those questioning the signing will have to explain their poor judgement.

It's around 20, it seems.

More importantly, you don't think he'll decline soon?

No because he is such a fighter, I remember one season where me and my friends said, Vidal has never a bad game.
I think he will be really exited to play with messi and co and give his all.
He has a very good stamina and his physics can be matched only by a few players in europe.

I've watched Barca lift 9 different La Liga trophies, Bravo being there for two during our peak doesn't mean anything to me. And "The German kid" won three trophies in that same amount of time as the starter in the CL and Copa.

I in the end turned out to be right about Bravo, we were making a poor choice by starting him over Mats. ter Stegen has proven to be a better keeper and is easily capable of doing everything Bravo did for us and more.

Culé de Celestial Empire
Paulinho was sold due to an offer of 50m from China
Vidal will be purchased for 20-25m

Same profile player (Vidal a better player) will be in the squad while the club pockets 25-30m in the process.

It's actually excellent business.

I am not sure if Vidal is better. Paulinho scores a decent amount of goals, rarely gets injured, work-ethic is great, with no off-pitch issues and is 30. Vidal scores once in a great while, with knee issues, has off-pitch issues and is 31.

Can only take your word for it.

His sudden decline is my biggest worry. I've read a lot of comments saying he's declined in last 2 season. But I rarely watch Bayern, tbf, so I couldn't really tell.

his injury did its part for that, but I would not say that he declined.
I'm convinced that if he reached his fitness level again, he is still top class and very very useful for every team

Dude we’re talking about Vidal here. If you want to fight about the german bench he’s got his own thread.
