Have got to pass this on, the best man at my wedding (1985 ) has a sister who married an Italian business man years ago. Turns out he has been working for the people who arrange Juventus financial deals. He has told my best mans sister that the deal for Vidal is 95% done & will have to be completed by August 5th( don't know why ) He said the fee is approx 45million euros which is about £34million. They have tried to get other clubs involved in an auction but city, PSG, Barca, Monaco, Madrid have all got to watch for financial fair play. My best man, his sister & all the family are massive Reds so have no reason to lie. Don't shoot the messenger but this is what I was told tonight, Christ I hope he is right.

{Ed007's Note - Now that's a good old-fashioned rumour!}

Im hoping your on the ball with this midelton red. If we get vidal then we will have an awesome midfield that has not been in place since Keane & Scholes.

The major benefit of having a powerful midfield will be that the defence inc DDG will have time on the ball. and we will gain lots of confidence

If it happens and a few more deals get tied there is that aura of confidence before the season has began, good times ahead I feel, obviously liverpool, chelsea and city have all strenthened, I'm hoping liverpool do a spurs like last season, but the same could be said about us, takes time to gel, time will tell. having Brand new defence will take tilme for DDG to bond with aswell

. all sounds very plausible until u mention Barcelona, why would they be worried about financial fair play, 2nd biggest turnover in the world last season, why would spending 46 million euro's on a player worry them. nice story, but 2 b a good liar your facts have 2 b believable. rumbled. Tonguer10
