This entire episode made me so emotional. Thanks for the memories Captain Nemanja and Rio, and thanks for allowing us to relive them ❤

[@evaa4242]

Honestly. Especially that part where he wasn't called for negotiation on a new contract, due to David Moyes being silly. While Rooney who still had 2 years was being called for negotiation. Also, the part they lost the second UCL final they reached to Barcelona. I hope David Moyes gets sacked at West Ham. I am so mad that he made us not to see or watch Vidic more 😭😭😭. To think he didn't even last long at United. VIDIC was right about Moyes not knowing what he was doing kind of!

[@DilbertWhitehead]

@EVAA so true re Moyes. I felt the same with Mourinho and Ronaldo. Knowing he wanted to come back when still in his prime and yet we wait til he's coming to the end and bring him into a toxic debacle of a side to a new fanbase of haters. The drop from Vidic to Jones, Smalling & Co was immense. So glad we finally have a decent pairing again

Why Vidic is my favourite defender isn't just because he is an incredible player... but his personality screams to you even as a kid. I saw his love and strong, warrior mentality towards the club which clearly reflected him as a person and I will always love him for that. It turns out as an adult we are actually similar in terms of how we see things in football and life in ways but not entirely... and that may be because of me admiring him as a kid so much. Him, Nani, Wayne, CR7, Paul Scholes and Edwin are my favourite United players but I'm quickly loving Lisandro... and I'm glad Vidic see's him as a similar way.

I know that his biggest achievement was to play and score against Partizan Belgrade in the Eternal Derby and he did, everything else after that is just additional making him the best CB that ever played in the Premier League (Sorry Rio, you're the second one in my list 😂).

Very nostalgic to see these two legends together again. By far the greatest defensive partnership I ever watched growing up as a kid. Vidic was just coming through when I was getting into football and started supporting United. They’ve set some standard for those who come after to follow.

Very intelligent Vidic is. He will definitely make a good manager.

This was a joy to watch. Thanks again for this. You can clearly see why this guy is so respected...Apart from a world class defender he is a true gentleman and very well educated. Never a show off on and off the pitch but a beast on the pitch and a perfect example of what a Man Utd player should be. Thanks for the memories warrior ❤

Done watching! This 2 part series was so beautiful and Vidic was so sincere. It felt like the interview should NOT end. It should have been a part 4 series as you, Rio and co know how we've longed to know sth about him and his progress all these while. VIDIC is top top top quality, a great person and I'll say, his family is so blessed to have him. He's just so unique and loves to be on a low doing his stuffs. The British media overate others and his likes gets disrespected. So awful! I felt bad when the club didn't call him for a new contract. I remember that last game that he played for us... Vidic was in tears, with a mic in his hands when fans were singing for him. We were so lucky to have these 2 CB pairing at United. Imagine Vidic being our coach in the future after ETH, damn, I will be there for it. I am glad he is NOT rushing things for instance, coaching and all and at the right time, he will manage a club if that's what he so desires. Damn, the standards will surely return more (if he gets to coach United), will be high, his mentality is TOP NOTCH!!! This guy will excel and do more exploits than the likes of Lampard, Gerard, Veira etc at management. Above all, let the Glazers go and it's heartbreaking United's standard has fallen off. Like they said, their mentality was SUPERB and they UPHELD it COURAGEOUSLY!!! Thank you for this and I am glad he's on Instagram now. We can shower him with more love, support and respect. Thank you, thank you for this 🤩🤩🙏

When Ferguson told Rio how Vidic was exactly what we needed cause our other CB was useless I just bursted into laughter. I was not prepared for that comment :) As for Vidic, he is just a year older then me. I was aware of his greatness since he played for Red Star. I was so proud of him when he joined UTD. I could not believe that Sir Alex Ferguson would rate one of our players so highly that he would get him to come to United. From there on, even before he was known to the whole World I would say to anyone who ever made a negative comment about Vidic after a bad game that Ferguson knows better then "you" and if he brought him there "your" opinion is irrelevant. What a player he was. I am both sorry and grateful that he given us his time playing for our national team as our FA was and still is corrupt to the bone. Nemanja, kapiram da ovo neces citati, ali ako slucajno vidis, hocu da znas koliko si nam ulepsao odrastanje. Ogromno hvala za sve!

Trossard scored more goals to Van Dijk than Torres scored to Vidic, yet haters dare to compare them, shameless 😂 Vida was an absolute beast, and this interview shows he's an amazing person, what a great interview, thanks guys 🔥🔥

[@upthereddevils]

What a player,what a man,could listen to him all day

[@aaronagnew82]

An interview 6 years in the making, have to say it was well worth the wait. Fantastic guys 👏

[@dylansahajpal5913]

Really impressed with how intelligent Vida is. Can really see why he was our caption and so successful.

[@davidpearson6785]

Hearing sir Alex there, best intro to an upload ever. Absolutely the best interview of the year this one absolutely brilliant 👍👍👍 ten out of ten ste and Joel and to see Rio reunited with Vida, simply magic. Listening to the boss , to hear his voice, goosebumps.i coulda wrote summat witty to try to make ste laugh so I could blag a signed summat or other 🤣🤣 but do you know what, watching those 2 episodes, I've already had my reward. Thank you so much guys that was epic

[@knownasmessi]

That interview blew my mind on so many levels how a Cb of that level can be so humble is something a lot of this generation could learn from. He was twice named the Player of the Season in 2008/09 and 2010/11 so arguably the best Cb in prem history. I was blessed to watch this team guided by Sir Alex and man I took it for granted because that will never be again. Thank you for the memories and thank you to Rio Joel and Ste for the best podcast content on KZbin 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Love that Man Utd swooped in and did the deal fast taking it away from Liverpool 😆 then they signed Agger instead 😂😂😂😂

[@ezekielehimare2414]

As an Arsenal fan I really hated to see Vidic start against, I really hated watching him play against us, loved him outside the pitch and this interview even brought more love. First time watching a United channel without hearing bias opinion from the panelist. If United wants to get back to where they were they need more Vidic opinion than Neville. Vidic is straight no sweet talking just giving facts.

[@rossjones2795]

Time flies man! Doesn’t feel like that long ago watching these two live in the champions league final in Moscow and now they’re reminiscing over the good times! Great podcast as always ⚽️
