Vidic Plays Down Talk Of Future Captaincy
Top rated Serbian defender Nemanja Vidic has reacted to reports tipping him as a
future captain of Manchester United.
The tough-tackling 26-year-old has gone from strength to strength since joining
the English giants from Spartak Moscow two years back, and some feel that he is
destined for one of the club’s highest honours if he continues his progression.
"If it happens I'd be delighted, especially at this club but it's not something I have
my sights on,” said Vidic.
"Being captain means a lot to you and it's a great honour.
"I just play my game and whether I'm captain or not doesn't change what I do on
the pitch."
For now Vidic is happy as pie just getting to play alongside some of his boyhood
idols on a daily basis.
"I used to watch Giggsy and Scholesy and now I play with them every day,” he
said. “It's a great feeling.
"Giggsy is just another person – a very professional player, but also just a person
and a friend.
"Scholesy loves football and he loves having the ball at his feet.
"He takes a lot of enjoyment from playing passes, scoring goals and even making
tackles."
Vidic is currently in the middle of what could escalate into a full-blown club versus
country row, as Sir Alex Ferguson is none to happy, to say the least, that
Serbia's Euro 2008 qualifier with Kazakhstan has been rescheduled for this
coming Saturday.
The United boss is expected to put up a fight to have Vidic available to face
Bolton – especially if it ends up that Serbia are already qualified – seeing that
next Saturday is not a recognised international weekend.
