Our 30-year old captain is set to return to training this week, Vidic hasn’t played since he tore his cruciate ligaments away at Basel last December but he has made remarkable progress in a bid to be fit for the season opener.
The big Serb has started training a week before his United team-mates as the medical staff at Carrington have planned various fitness regimes to improve his stamina and strength to give him the earliest return date possible.
Having Vidic back will be like a new signing, but to be honest, we didn’t miss him as much as I thought we would. In his absence Jonny Evans probably had some of his best performances in a red shirt, and these two combining at the heart of our defence is an exciting prospect going into the new season.
