Vidic: I'm Confident English Football Will Suit Me
Nemanja Vidic is relishing the prospect of his first run-out in a red shirt after he was unveiled to the world's media on Monday morning.
Vidic posed with his new number 15 shirt before answering questions via an interpreter. He did, however, reveal a reasonable understanding of English despite having not mastered his responses just yet.
The Serbia and Montenegro star is set to make his first appearance in front of the Old Trafford faithful in the FA Cup third round replay with Burton Albion on Wednesday week.
Having experienced Old Trafford as a spectator in the past, Vidic, who is currently undergoing an intense fitness programme, admits he can't wait to step out onto the home turf as a United player and is confident the English style of play will suit his game.
"I'm thrilled to be here and I think English football will really suit me."

"United are one of most famous teams you could imagine and I'm thrilled to be here," insisted Vidic. "It's every player's dream to be at United so I'm absolutely delighted to be part of the set-up.
"I've been to Old Trafford in the past and followed United on the television - they are one of the biggest teams you could imagine.
"I'm hoping to play next week," he added. "I'm looking forward to stepping out onto the field.
"I think English football will really suit me and I'm confident I'll adapt very quickly."
Vidic also took time to praise his new team-mates who he says have made him feel at home in Manchester.
"My team-mates are all very friendly and made me feel very welcome," he said simply.
Vidic sat alongside his new manager Sir Alex Ferguson at the press conference and Fergie was clearly delighted to have got his man.
"When we realised Fiorentina were involved, we knew we had to move quickly. We're delighted to have Nemanja here."

The United boss said the club have been tracking the 24-year-old defender for some time and revealed how United stepped up their efforts to sign Vidic after Fiorentina entered the fray.
"There was a period when a lot of negoiations had to be done because there were other clubs interested," explained Fergie, who highlighted Vidic's pace and passing as two of his strongest assets.
"When we realised Fiorentina were involved, we knew we had to move quickly and we started to put things in motion around the beginning of December.
"The difficult thing about making your move in these situations is if you go too early before the January window you can alert other clubs.
"There's a timing aspect involved. Fortunately we were able to resolve things and we're delighted to have him here."
