You just never know when a player comes back from long term injury whether they'll ever be the same again.
Until today Vidic hadn't looked the part in any of his appearances since coming off at Basel last season but he improved as the game went on and the last half an hour or so was Vidic at his best, an absolute rock.
Delighted and relieved!

i love the fact he does so many crunching tackles
even if he doesnt need to, it fires up the rest of the team

If he was fit last season we would have won the league. Huge player for us and its no surprise we kept a clean sheet today with out best CB pairing on the pitch.

Vidic was brilliant, bit concerned about how easily smalling was beaten by odemwengie consistently though

In fairness....Smalling is a centre half playing full back. It's not his best position. He does a job not that's about it.
I was at the game and Fergie was on the touchline giving him loads of instructions. He moved centrally for the last 20 mins and Valencia filled in at right back. It was basically a back 5.
Vidic was immense though. Can't remember a clear cut chance for them. Long time since I'v said that.

Vidic is the cornerstone of our defence. That is all to say really.
