Former Chelsea striker Chris Sutton has jokingly claimed that Manchester United great Nemanja Vidic ‘ended his career’. Sutton is known for his controversial views but this was more of a light-hearted attempt at humour after the ex-forward threw Vidic’s hat into the ring during the BBC’s best foreign import debate. Vidic starred for the United from 2006 until 2014 and won five Premier League titles with the club. He was also a major reason behind why United reclaimed the Champions League trophy at the end of the 2007/08 season. Sutton recalls playing against Vidic during the latter part of his career with Aston Villa and lauded the former Serbia international’s ‘uncompromising’ approach to football. “Vidic ended my career – I played my last ever game against him,” Sutton told the BBC.

Beauty was Rio and the beast was Vidic. “An old school rough and ready defender, he was tough and uncompromising but he was more than that. A superb reader of the game and leader. When the going got tough he was the one you would want standing next to you in the heat of the battle.” Today’s top Manchester United stories Source link The post Former Chelsea striker recalls how Man Utd legend Nemanja Vidic ended his career appeared first on 10z Soccer. #NemanjaVidic #ManchesterUnitedFC

Nemanja Matic has made a sly dig at Virgil van Dijk (Picture: Getty)Former Manchester United captain Nemanja Vidic claims Liverpool star Virgil van Dijk is not a better defender than Chris Smalling or Phil Jones. The Dutchman is this season’s favourite to be named PFA Player of the Year after his dominant performances for title-chasing Liverpool. The Reds have conceded just 15 times in the league this season, 20 times fewer than Manchester United [35] who have conceded over 1.5 goals a game so far this term. Nevertheless, Vidic – who will be in the Sky Sports studio for Sunday’s showdown at Old Trafford – says Van Dijk would not get in United’s side. Van Dijk is favourite to be named PFA Player of the Year (Picture :Getty)‘I think [Lindelof] had a difficult time in the beginning,” Vidic told Omnisport . ‘Well done to him to come back. It’s not easy, especially playing for Man United, big club, to not start that well and have criticism from the media. ‘To come back from that and now perform well, it shows some character as well, which is important if you want to play for Man United. ‘I think Phil Jones did well in the recent games he played, Chris Smalling is a good defender, [Eric] Bailly as well. I think we have four solid defenders and with the right match I think they can perform to the best of their capabilities. ‘Overall, I said even before when they didn’t have great games, if you look at the other teams, I would not have any defenders of Liverpool or Chelsea, I don’t think they have better defenders than we have. ‘I think now the team is playing better, they have more confidence and there will come even better matches from them.’ MORE: MANCHESTER UNITED FC Nemanja Vidic claims Virgil van Dijk wouldn't get in Manchester Unites's sideStruggling Man Utd star sends cryptic message to supporters ahead of Liverpool showdownMan Utd star loses Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's trust and won't play against LiverpoolVidic spent eight years at Old Trafford, winning five league titles and a Champions League title in the north-west. The 36-year-old admits Van Dijk is a fantastic defender but says the spotlight is on him right now because of Liverpool’s title tilt. ‘I think he’s doing a great job – he’s strong physically, he’s fast, he’s a presence on the pitch,’ Vidic added of Van Dijk. ‘He’s a great defender, top defender, but I’m saying when teams are doing well, everyone gets recognition. I know that because I played for Man United and when you’re doing well, when you’re scoring goals, [getting] a few clean sheets, straight away people start talking about how good you are.’ MORE: Tiger Woods explains his plan to catch Dustin Johnson and Rory McIlroy at WGC-Mexico #NemanjaVidic #VirgilVanDijk #ManchesterUnitedFC

Liputanviral - Mantan bek tengah Manchester United, Nemanja Vidic menggambarkan Cristiano Ronaldo sebagai panutan sempurna. Ronaldo sendiri akan kembali bermain di Old Trafford pada Rabu (24/10/2018) dini hari WIB nanti. Itu akan menjadi laga reuni keduanya dengan Manchester United. Pada tahun 2013 Ronaldo pernah melakukannya saat masih berseragam Real Madrid. “Anda harus memiliki pemain semacam ini di tim Anda, para pemain ini mereka selalu mendorong maju,” kata Vidic kepada Omnisport. “Pemain seperti Ronaldo tidak pernah puas dengan permainan mereka, mereka ingin meningkatkan dan Anda harus memiliki pemain semacam ini di tim Anda. “Pada akhirnya mereka adalah panutan karena mereka adalah pemain yang bagus dan mereka profesional dan jelas contoh bagi pemain lain tentang bagaimana mereka harus bekerja.” “Saya bermain dengan dia, Ronaldo, selama beberapa tahun, kami memenangkan banyak trofi sehingga kami memiliki kenangan indah dan jelas itu akan menjadi momen yang hebat baginya untuk kembali ke Old Trafford lagi – semoga kali ini dia tidak akan pergi untuk menang. Hebat, pemain, pemain top, dia hebat untuk klub dan rekan setim yang baik,” tandas bek yang di akhir kariernya sempat memperkuat Inter Milan itu. Ronaldo dan Juventus sendiri datang ke Old Trafford dengan kondisi yang bagus baik secara fisik ataupun mental. Hal itu tentu akan menjadi tantangan yang sangat berat bagi Manchester United yang penampilannya di musim ini masih jauh dari kata memuaskan. Read the full article

Nemanja Vidic won five Premier League titles at Manchester United (Picture: Getty)Manchester United fans have urged Nemanja Vidic to remind Paul Pogba of his responsibilities after the legendary defender spelled out what a privilege it was to have represented the Premier League giants. Vidic won five league titles, three League Cups and the Champions League during the course of a trophy-laden eight-year career at Old Trafford. ‘Manchester United is an institution,’ he said. ‘Every player is very happy to have a chance to play at Old Trafford. That is a privilege, I know that.’ Vidic’s words, tweeted out by the club’s official account, come on the back of the conflicting statements Pogba has given with regards to his own future at the club. The World Cup winner told Sky Sports Germany earlier this week that he still had a contract with the club, but his situation could change within a couple of months amid reports his relationship with Jose Mourinho had deteriorated and Barcelona’s keen interest. Pogba subsequently angered United fans by claiming he was not responsible for the continued transfer speculation and the club’s fans are eager for Vidic to send a timely reminder… "Manchester United is an institution. Every player is very happy to have a chance to play at Old Trafford.
