Wouldn't be too worried about missing out on him to be honest.

He looked positively awful at times at the WC. I paid attention to him because we were linked with him. Think it's a blessing the speculation died down rapidly as matches went on.

Ya but think of the combination of Martins Indi's eyes and Phil Jones' face...strikers would run away in fear!

Very realistic chance of Vidal. I think 60\40 in our favour personally.

Do we really have the luxury of finding out though? We are top heavy with attackers and have fewer than usual games next season, where are we going to find 10/15 matches that we can give Bebe meaningful gametime for his development?

We have to focus on the league next season, we simply cannot miss out on top four and so we just cannot be taking chances on a guy like Bebe. Letting him go is the right call.

Why do we have to throw Bebe into the first team next season.

If he goes this summer in his last year of contract we will get 4 or 5 million.

If he signs a new contract and goes on loan to a Premiership side we will get a better idea about him. If he flops we will still get 3 or 4 million. If he performs well he can come back the following season and challenge for a first team spot.

Bebe might never turn into a United regular but i would rather be safe than sorry.

Savage. The scary thing is, they'd probably still be able to do the same if you replaced the all kids with everyone from this thread.

At least have a buy back clause for when he tears it up and Real try to sign him in 2 years.

I didn't say a dozen times yesterday we are not signing Vidal and I didn't say today we were signing him.

Accurate reporting of facts is crucial in my line of work.

Case in point, there's a lad sitting across from me. He has Zaha 28 on his shirt.

It's an ongoing joke. FutureGuy says "we aren't signing x" and he is often very wrong. It's a good omen, think of future guy as our lucky thread leprechaun!

There's no guarantee that Bebe was willing to sign a new contract with United. He's had a few loans already, he might not have been interested in another one.

What I've learned from the responses to that tweet...

1) Everyone wants us to sign Vidal.

2) Tom Cleverley has a massive fan in Indonesia.

Reports coming from Italy that Antonio Conte has resigned.

Gazetta dello Sport and Sky Italia are speculating that it's over signing Evra and selling Vidal.

Future Guy has received 24,567,838 thanks from 6,700 posts where he states that "We are not signing X" (source Bill O' Herlihy)

The majority of us here are quite fond of these posts and consider it good luck for future signings. If there is something you definitely want to happen in your life, try to get Future Guy to say that it is not happening, and then watch as your wish comes true. But shhh, he's ours and we don't want the mainstream media catching onto and taking advantage of his charms.

Consider yourself 'awared'

Just seen that, disheartening for Juve to be honest, but great for us. Loosing their best player and now their manager.

I won't feel too bad though, we haven't been shrewd enough in the transfer market for a long time when chasing big name targets, will all be forgotten if he lines out for United next year

Yeah huge news from Juventus, speculation it is over the sale of Vidal without the now former manager's agreement.

I'm going to guess that if it is over one of the those two things, that it's the latter and not the former.
