Llorente to Arsenal, Vidal to Liverpool?

This post may seem a little out of character but it has to be said- the transfer merry go round has already started and it has me baffled. Firstly the season isn't over yet and it seems to be in bad taste to start poaching the players now, and secondly, Juve's success has primarily been because they are a fairly stable club, and what do you think will happen when you tinker too much?

I sort of understand why they might be thinking of letting Fernando go, he hasn't really set the league on fire with his goals, but there is more to his game that being a target man. He has forged a strong partnership with Tevez and is able to assist his team mates and he is always willing to track back and help the defense. He is hardworking and doesn't go off in a strop whenever he gets subbed.But he must appreciate that he currently does start many game but with Dybyla coming, that might change.

That is on the field, off the field I hear he is a leader to the younger players and a great personality in the dressing room. And when you have a dressing room full of talented youngsters, it is always a plus to have someone who can reel you in, of course we have Buffon who is THE symbol of Juventus but it is a plus to have someone who speaks Spanish for the young " whipper snapper" Morata. From a Purely financial standpoint " The Lion King" does have a hefty wage bill and we don't know whether he will accept a wage cut.

The rumours surround Arturo Vidal I'm having a harder time reconciling. I understand that he has not scored as many goals as last season but that is partly due to the fact that he had a major injury before the World Cup and still went to the summer competition. He is a major link in a wonderful midfield. He is strong and extremely skillful and he adds another dimension to your game.

All I'm saying is, think hard before you decide because the consequences may be hard to handle!
