    Conte resigns.... Wow...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,736 ✭✭✭OctavarIan


    Conte is a bigger loss to them than Vidal, in my opinion. Aren't they in a weak financial position though? I wonder what did he expect would happen.

    Loosing their best player and now their manager.

    You do realize Andrea Pirlo plays for Juventus?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,741 ✭✭✭Hococop


    I'm assuming this is good for us as it seems they want to sell him

    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' :D

    Thank you , its all become crystal clear to me now.

    Yes? Even if do you consider Pirlo a better player, he's 35. Vidal is a much bigger asset, and imo a better all round player


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,721 ✭✭✭Al Capwned


    The stars are aligning.
    Or it might mean feck all.


    Definitely one or the other.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,475 ✭✭✭Zico


    Looks like our Vidal signs are improving. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,177 ✭✭✭TheTownie


    GdS also saying Utd have increased their offer.

    It should be an automatic 24 hour ban for anyone who speaks negatively about Pirlo.

    3) Andrea Pirlo is beauty. Not beautiful, beauty itself. He personifies the word. No matter his cost he should always be purchased and played at United. Despite never playing for United, he is a United legend.

    5) Future Guy has magical powers when it comes to predicting who we'll sign.

    Thread calling Futureguy


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,177 ✭✭✭TheTownie


    Extract from GdS article here;
    The straw that broke the camel may have done could be Arturo Vidal. The company had promised that Conte would not have been sold, but Manchester United, fresh from a millionaire agreement with Adidas, in the last hours has raised the offer, finding agreement with Juventus.

Some say hes a prophet others say when he says we are not signing someone its good luck . I am only a mere mortal can someone please aware me on wtf the craic is around here.

    hey man, welcome to the forum.

    I'm the good luck charm. What I says won't happen happens. It amuses people so I keep going. One day, I will be banned because my thanks:post ratio will look like I have hacked boards but today is not that day.

    Ok, I have only energy for one more guys. I am weak and tired. My energy drained. I feel the end is near for me...

    We...

    *gasp*

    ...are not...

    *final breath*

    ...signing Vidaaaalllllllllll.....

    *cuts to credits*


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,775 ✭✭✭✭RobertKK


    Vidal wants the move going by his comments, where he basically said Juve was his fall back option if it didn't happen.

    Today Conte met the Juve board, to say it went badly is an understatement. Talk that Juve need to sell either Vidal or Pogba, maybe Conte disagreed, and wants the Italian job instead rather than be the manager who sold him.

    One would have to say the perception right now looks good for Vidal to United.

    I'm not speaking negatively in lehmann terms, still a top player but his time is almost up. All the wine drinking pics in the world won't change that.

    We are veering off topic anyhow

    Conte for Italy?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 304 ✭✭ManofStraw


    Ed "The Equalizer" Woodward just took down another one


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,515 ✭✭✭tupac_healy


    Will Conte leaving Juve help or hinder our Vidal situation???


    Could be possible he resigned due to Vidal being sold?

    Squawka Football ‏@Squawka 12m RT @JamesHorncastle: Conte asked if this has anything to do with the Italy job: "I’m thinking about the present, to the decision taken

    That is what I think.

    Conte had options, he knew Vidal would be sold but in his heart disagreed and had the option for the Italian job so resigned.

    Got to show his objection, while he has another job lined up.

    Of course pure speculation, but that makes people like us ITK :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,134 ✭✭✭✭Rayne Wooney


    We are signing Vidal

    In the know, open to correction on this though.

    Speaking of ITK and a person who should have a N for Not in front of ITK...

    Liverpool watching and ready to hijack the Vidal move if it goes pear shaped.

    The source is speculated to be tea maker who was feeling a bit bored.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,177 ✭✭✭TheTownie


    GdS again;
    After the black smoke on the renewal of the technician, the Chilean midfielder is closer to move to England. The Red Devils put on the plate of € 44 million

    Help I would guess, if the person who was objecting is leaving, then it has to be good. Presuming this is the reason for the resignation.

    Conte probably upset because of the Vidal position. He wanted Juve to spend money and Juve and Italian league in general just dont have the money
