Sammer says the club will take action against claims Vidal was drunk during their January training camp in Qatar and will pull together, despite Guardiola's news coming in the middle of an injury crisis.

"Our coach is currently being made responsible for everything and what is going on here at the moment isn't right," Sammer fumed.
