How Good was Nemanja Vidic?

[@spkra8798]

My favourite quote about Vidic, one that really describes him and what makes him unique to this day “Nemanja puts his head where other players are scared to put their feet” - Robin van Persie

[@ALLENQOMONDI]

What a brilliant defender we had, no one like him

[@mirwankamarudin-hr4xo]

A good striker will win you matches...a good defender will win you title...

I’m not sure you watched the video however I do agree defence/goalie is your most important line but it is a team sport after all

[@IMMERSIVEVOICE]

Virgil had an 18 months peak. Vidic had a decade long peak

All the so called "fans" have never even seen Vidic and probably weren't even born when he was playing and in his prime. They don't know the fear Vidic put in his opponents.

​​@@niallrunswick938 Torres did what lol😂 Just 3 goals in 15 games against Vidic. Scousers always try to bring up some usless stats to win an argument. Only one time Torres got the better of Vidic. Then I would say Rashford scored 7 goals against so called Van Dijk. Does that make VVD a bad player, or a b*tch of Rashford 😂?

i agree ferdinand makes vidic looks good, but ferdinand looks great due to vidic too who complement his weakness. It's more of how 2 defenders complement each other weakness very well.
