Bastian Schweinsteiger leaving Bayern. In return, the Munich undertake probably Arturo Vidal of Juventus. Is the Chilean a one-to-one replacement? Certainly not. Why the South Americans is much more than a blutgrätschender fighter.
When you think of the attributes of Arturo Vidal, first pierces the great commitment of Chileans eye. The 28-year-old dances always on the border between passion and over aggressiveness
His former coach Jupp Heynckes once described him as “street footballer” -.. So a species that is not so often found
More than just Blutgrätschen
In the last Serie A season Vidal recorded the fourth-most successful tackles among players with at least ten operations.
Its intensity can be also channeled so far. He is an outstanding Pressing player who sometimes terrorized with his dynamic and spacious play an opposing team

Vidal implies even like the self-image of a warrior who denies any football match, but bring in a battle. In his best phases he is all over the place.
Winning here the ball, accelerates the attack there. One type midfield all-rounder, as wish him many coaches.
Not from Warrior Image blinded
But Pep Guardiola looks the same way? After all, the Catalan has a very special taste of what players – especially midfielders -. Relates
But no one should be blinded by the warrior image of Arturo Vidal , The Chilean can not only play high-intensity pressing and distribute Blutgrätschen. He’s just an accomplished, versatile pass player who fits Guardiola ball circulation machine.
counterweight to Thiago?
With Juventus Vidal acted last on either the eight or on the numeric position. He also plays for Chile. For both teams it often took over running paths for his creative side men.
In Turin he secured from defensive alongside Andrea Pirlo. For Chile, he often ran a few extra kilometers for the offensive playmaker Jorge Valdivia

In the tactical formations of Guardiola Vidal could accumulate again in midfield and for example, represent a kind of counterpoint to Thiago there. If the Spaniard fit and in shape, Thiago is the rhythm at Bayern before.
Vidal could run holes on Thiago’s side, back in their ability to press forward and take on many other labor-intensive activities.
Against Barcelona a like Vidal
lacked than last season, Munich phases were nailed by FC Barcelona in their own half of the semi-final first leg of the Champions League, the then ailing midfield lacked exactly that type of player.
Vidal with his playing style on the one hand for perfect counterattack against top teams. And on the other hand very intense in counter pressing to maintain their own possession dominance.
Poor prospects for Hoejbjerg, Kimmich and Rode
Because of its strengths and its versatility should the Chilean an important role at Bayern take. In 4-3-3 it can act as a constantly rochierender eight, occupying the second position in the six-3-4-3 or 3-4-1-2 or even helping out now and then as a wing defender

Vidal does not compensate for the departure of Bastian Schweinsteiger, as both are too different. But he could reduce a young talent like Pierre Emile Hoejbjerg chances to use minutes. Because the 19-year-old Dane is similar in some respects Vidal. The Minutes of Joshua Kimmich and Sebastian Rode will not rise by the Vidal-purchase.
All the take Bayern into account. For their latest commitment has already made at the highest level the performance capabilities. In the case of Vidal wants to develop any talent, but a finished player for immediate use at the European top level
