Nemanja Vidic
It never rains but it pours: Nemanja Vidic is fed up with the Manchester weather

Pain of rain is too much for Nemanja

Evening Standard   27 Aug 2008


Nemanja Vidic has said that he has had enough of the English weather.

The Manchester United defender told a Russian magazine that he is so fed up with the gloomy skies in this country that he - like team-mate Cristiano Ronaldo - longs to play in Spain.

The 26-year-old, signed from Spartak Moscow for £7million in January 2006, said: "In England they say that Manchester is the city of rain. Its main attraction is considered to be a timetable at the railway station where trains leave for other, less rainy cities!"

Nemanja Vidic is a great player for us, it doesn't seem he is leaving he said he is happy to be playing in a great club like Manchester United say, he shows that in every game he plays and he also said he has a lot of respect of the people in Manchester!

Look Nemanja is denied that because he wants to clarify he did not make that particular remarks. He had at the time difficulty to setting his life at Manchester but he is happy here!
