Did he dangerously tackle one of your favourite players or something? What's not to like about Vidal?
Purely anecdotal. Met him briefly but mostly just saw how he interacted with people shortly before he went to Germany to play. He was a dick. I'm not a fan.

Vidal is the best player in the entire game. I seriously consider him better than messi or ronaldo.
That is awesome, and it makes me really happy for Chile.

I was going to guess "he plays club football for Juventus" as the reason you didn't like him, but that works too.

No, it was in Chile.

But I'd forgotten about the U20 in Canada, that was bad. I completely side with the Chilean team on that.

Happy with the win, not terribly thrilled with how they played though. I don't see them even managing a tie with Spain. I hope they play better though.

He had knee surgery pretty much right after Juve sealed the title, which was a little over a month ago. He's still recovering really.

Swedish style? No.
Yugoslavian style? Of course not.
It has to be Zlatan-style.

Vidal was really quiet and pretty obviously not match fit. Still a very good player but really struggled to impose himself on what is honestly a pretty weak Australia midfield.

he played a lot of very good balls but barely did any heavy physical work besides like 2 tackles

If Chile managed a tie with Spain, they'd just have to avoid getting slaughtered by the Netherlands, right?

Our alleged first eleven for tomorrow:

Claudio Bravo; Gary Medel, Francisco Silva, Gonzalo Jara; Mauricio Isla, Charles Aránguiz, Marcelo Díaz, Eugenio Mena; Arturo Vidal; Eduardo Vargas and Alexis Sánchez.

No Valdivia, maybe they're saving him as a super-sub. Vidal will play in his position.

(I'm so nervous about the game I might puke.)

Incorrect, this was at the Hereford FIFA Fan Zone at the George V Playfields. The one in Rio was like 2.5x the size of this one. Chile is going wild this FIFA World Cup, great support.
