NEMANJA DELIJA
❤
❤
I remember when he signed and people said he wouldn't make it in the PL after a few games. Turned into one of the greatest United defenders.
One of the greatest PL defenders. People thinking that VVD is better than Vidic is laugh inducing.
Saliba is better.
@@ysav119 I'm an arsenal fan, but right now that's a no. He could become as good as him. But let's see
@@ysav119funny that
Him and Evra
My childhood hero ❤. "You can fix a broken nose, but you can't fix your broken pride if you let someone score against you"
You can tell that these two are Brothers for life.
Best defensive partnership in the Premier League era!
Best pairing ever maybe?
Lord Saliba and Lord Gabriel have something to say about that
@@ysav119come back when they have 5 league titles and a champions league until then recognise that Lords can't talk in the presence of Kings. There's levels buddy you wouldn't know about 😂😂
@ysav119 man you comment this on every comment. Saliba is that you dog? 😂
vidic was a warrior not a defender
This made me so unbelievably happy. As a Serb and fan of United, this put a massive smile on my face😁
Bro I'm afghan live in canada , love Serbian people. Have somany friends here that are Serbs. Cheers bro yall are good people 😊
@@AJ-si9qr I dont think Nemanja Vidic did anything wrong to muslims.
What a player shame you have to get old
Happy to see you happy @stretch
Vidic is loved massively love him wish he was still here at utd
You guys don't know how much we in Serbia were proud that one of us played such a big part in a legendary club like Manchester United. Knowing that people in England respect him so much is really great to know. He really was a warrior on the pitch
hahaha imagine if you were a football powerhouse how proud you would be.

Vidic doesn’t look a day older than when he left United!
Yet he's 42.takes good care of himself
Amazing...when you are a genuine person!!
He actually looked younger now
He looks younger infact!
Imagine a certain Wayne Rooney sitting next to him now. Uncle Rooney Vidic will call him! 😅
@@originalunoriginal4055 that would be hilarious! 😂 One would think Rooney was from Bruce’s era
As an Arsenal fan, I can now understand why Vidic succeeded in the English Premier League with Manchester United - His mindset. He was focused (not getting distracted with social media), determined (he was an unknown player who wants to make a statement) and committed (the guy want to make the most of the opportunity offered to him). Him talking about football education, investment and family - as post football priorities made my respect increase for him. He is one of the best to ever rock the league.
What a great statement to make. 👍
That's a good assessment that, cheers
As an Arsenal fan you should also know Saliba is levels above Vidic
@@ysav119 - Who is talking Saliba here? Let's stick to topic, please.
@@ysav11915yo Arsenal fans when they think they know everything smh...
Vidic looks the same....proper proper defender and his loyalty to the club is unsurpassed!! Thanks for the memories!!
Usually not the sentimental type but seeing them both together again gives me chills.
Not a fan of utd but yeah it does. Im sure it does for football fans
Bro me too
Yes, probably the greatest and the best defender United ever had after deez
Love it man. My favourite 2 United centre backs EVER ! 💯
So true
Love the way Rio and Vida look at each other! Can see the mutual respect coming through! Also Vida still looks like he could pull in a shirt!
yeah he looks in great shape tbf,same as rio would rather have one of them than maguire
Saliba is better tho.
Nah man, his body is broken AF
@@Discombobulate453 😂😂! Not surprised after putting it on the line for all those years!
@@zanebowen5536 Saliba is showing Vidic how its done.
What a defender vidic was, my favourite center back of all time.
Same
Look at the aura of confidence in Vidic in his entrance. What a legend!😎
Our captain. Our legend!
Nemanja is a true idol not just for Balkan footballers but Balkan people who have accomplished themselves worldwide in general. He understood the progresive worldview is the leading factor in achieving your dreams, no matter how big they could be or unusual for your environment they might seem! Love and respect from a Bulgarian kid ❤
The legend Himself Vidić.5🇷🇸
Him & Rio were another level in Defence 🐐💪🏼🚫
I'm SERB and I'm very huge fan of MAN UTD, seeing these legends make me so happy!
Vidic is always going to be in my heart. He left everything on the pitch. What a warrior. Thank you for the joy you gave us.
Nemanjaaaa woaaaahhhh he came from Serbia….. Arguably the greatest premier league centre back in the modern era. Always solid, always can rely on 8/10 minimum performances week in week out!
Saliba better.
@@ysav119 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
@@mathewkodakallil3955 Yes you are a clown. I know its hard to understand. Lord Saliba makes Vidic look like a peasant lets be real.
@@ysav119 LOL even Sven botman is better then Saliba
@@tecca78 Your actually a crackhead. Saliba At 21 = Playing for Arsenal leading us to the title. Meanwhile...... Vidic at 21 = Playing For Red Star Belgrade😂😂
My Childhood-Hero 😍 I can remember like it was yesterday. Everyone wanted to be Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Messi. I wanted to be like Vidic. Thats why I liked to tackle and play with the head in football.
Don't get too confident end up getting your head volleyed off 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This genuinely made my day. I don’t think I’ve ever smiled for 48 mins and 58 secs straight before 🤣 Brings back so many unbelievable memories seeing these two together.
True. Beautiful beautiful piece
😊
vidić is the reason i became a manchester united fan, he's also one of the reasons i'm proud to be serbian. thank you for this :)
This is simply sensational. Thank you to everyone involved in making this happen, and thank you to Vida for the glimpse into his life.
Saliba is better.
@@ysav119 Oh yh, that’s why Arsenal loaned him out last year, coz he’s been the best defender in the world for 5 years now. Get a grip, Saliba will never be as good as Vidic you melt
@@aaronfrancis134 Lol Saliba went on loan for experience. I understand the truth is hard young boy, but that peasant Vidic cannot even be compared or put in the same sentence as Lord Saliba. Vidic in his prime is not even 25% of what Lord Saliba is. Lord Saliba makes Vidic look like Maguire. Not even comparable.
@@ysav119 bruh come on now your comment sounds so ignorant
@@ysav119 you sound creepy calling him Lord you weird little pervert. Vidic has won more trophies than your club has in the last 30 years. Come back when you’re champions of Europe you bottle merchants
Vidic so humble ❤ one of the best CB of all time
As a Centre half growing up Vidic was my absolute hero! Only player I ever had on the back of a Utd kit! Legend ❤
This was the only interview which I didn't skip even 10 seconds. So much nostalgia of our glory days ❤❤
Also watched the whole interview and I'm a Liverpool fan.
Even rewinded a few times!
@@_trust9994 u are a genuine football fan
He just ignored social networks while he played for Man Utd. Can't imagine any one of our current players doing the same. What a legend he was and still is!
Most of our players back then were on social media too. Didn't stop them being winners. Maybe people need to grow up and let grown men handle their own spare time in the way they want to.
@@gregoryboatswain1605Yeah...different horses for different courses.
Absolute living legend. That phrase is overused but with Nemanja it's a worthy description. The man was completely nails on the pitch. His partnership with Rio is arguably the best centre back partnership the Premier league has ever seen. They complemented each other so well. Thanks for getting him on the channel. A real pleasure. 👍
Love Vidic. A true United warrior 💪🏽
NEMANJA!!!! WHOAOAA
U we’re literally star struck
One in a million
Rare breed
Massive smile on my face when I saw this 😊
It's no secret he's one of my favourite players ever!
Big up for making this interview happen 🙂
GOAT
Shameful how they compared to Van Disney
Bravo brate za sve sto si rekao, i hvala sto ces tek da pomazes srpskom fudbalu.
Kazes ne kao predsednik, ali da mi ti kazemo kao predsednik!!!
Proci ce mracno vreme, i dolazi svetlost samo molim te budi u sluzbi igraca i navijaca a ne političara.

Saliba is better.
@@ysav119 100%
@@ysav119 nobody asked nor agrees
Vidic is such an interesting human!
Can listen to this beast all day!
What a fantastic interview
He looks the exact same as he did 10 years ago. What a man, my childhood hero
Tears in my eyes right now,,, smh vidic the legend that disappeared from the scenes...it's so good to see the Great WALL of Manchester United after along time...these two were beasts at the back...
Vida was amazing. A very honest and likeable guy.
Vida actually looks younger ,My favourite CB in football history,no nonsense warrior,thank you Vida for the memories. I have never smiled ever since you left Manu.
Lol I'm sorry to be cheeky but when are we seeing Rio, Vidic and Evra together??? We all absolutely loved this.
By far, the best 2 centre-backs and best partnership in Premier league history. Anything else is the wrong answer. Absolute legends
Terry was far better
No, he is not
@@nemanjazecevic3167 stats says so
Vida is one of United's all-time best defenders, and after listening to him speak on your podcast, I even realised that he is a kind and family person. I'm glad you invited him.
yeah, won pl player of the year twice as defender... rare nowadays to see defenders winning these types of awards. Tells you how good he was
A rare Vidic interview! The one we’ve been waiting for!
Wow! Brilliant interview guys, Nemanja hasn't aged at all. Get him back in the United kit! Loving this so far, can't wait for part two. Vidic and Rio are the best CB partnership in PL history ⚽❤️🏆💪 Come on you reds
You stuck in the past
Great interview, what a guy he is. Arguably one of the best defenders Man United ever had.
Not just Mad United,but whole Prem league
Stop. Saliba levels above him,
I don't think any player can fill Vida's place. Legend ❤
This is one of the best interviews I have come across, intelligent, articulate, good stories, deep understanding of the game, good questions and I watched the whole thing glued to the screen. Viva Vida
How the hell is this guy the most badass premier league defender 🥺 he's so kind and loving and polite
I'm an Aussie fanatical Liverpool fan for 45 years, now living in Thailand...but what a pair these two were. Probably haven't seen any better centre back pairing since them.
Ste is definitely wearing depends here....dude prob came 20 times sitting between Vida and Rio during this interview....
I love the content Rio puts out too. I hated him as a United player. But as a man he seems like a good dude and the quality he puts out on this channel is great. He is always objective on his opinions (unlike Ste, who seems to think that anyone who hasn't played for United, probably can't lace their own boots...) and fair to opposition players - past and present.
The greatest CB pairing this country has ever seen
Saliba better.
@@ysav119 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

Seeing Rio and Nemanja together again, makes me shivver 🥶💯
So buzzing for this episode! Vidic was my favourite player growing up I used to watch compilation videos of him before my Saturday and Sunday league games, what a defender! United legend through and through❤️

Man looks like he could play tomorrow ❤

Look at me watching Vida and grinning from ear to ear.VIDIC is the best!❤

What a top top guy. No coincidence that your successful guests have also been the most humble. He looks like he could still play at CB for Utd now!
Скучала по Видичу 😊 Очень рада, что пригласили его. Люблю этого парня ❤
Tough would be an understatement to describe Vidic . He was an unbelievable defender. A great leader. Every united fan has so much respect for nemanja. A warrior. Legend

These guys are brothers. I still see the partnership even in this conversation. I’m blessed to have watched these two. Great memories. Love you guys.
I spent the whole interview with goosebumps. What a player Vidic was, what a guy he is now. Very thoughtful, funny, deep kind of guy. Well done for getting him on, easily the best interview on Five so far.
Saliba is better.
@@ysav119 bottle bottle bottle bottle bottle bottle bottle
Interview of the year on FIVE for me... Just woow!! These two sitting there next toe each other is just nostalgic !
And hearing him talk about all that stuff, as a United fan I now understand more why these two were such a success as a CB pairing at United.
Thanks Rio for bringing him on. LEGENDS !
One of the best defenders I’ve seen. His passion for defending was different! This guy locked up our goal with Rio and Edwin for 9 years 🔒
Man, I've missed Vida!!!! So many good memories seeing him and Rio together again. Best CB partnership in Prem history for me
Not gonna lie when U been a United fan forever.. These interviews bring back memories that gets you emotional. Thanks for making this happen
Finally got in Vidic, well done boys and thank you. Thank you too Nemanja, one of my favourite players ever and a true legend
Great to see Vidic again a true Manchester United legend
Best cb partnership vidic and rio
The best center back in the Manchester united history. Kids today won't know what a beast this man was.
Saliba is better.

@@ackhmezchady3616 Bro you need to open your eyes and not be so 'sentimental' towards these legends. Rio and Vidic are so many levels below Saliba its actually funny people cannot see it. You cannot even compare them to Saliba, they are not even a shell of what Saliba is.
@@ysav119 You're trolling, right? William Saliba?
@@Mopark25 No I am not trolling. Yes William Saliba, after all there is only one Saliba. Your fans blinded by 'legends' and 'sentimental' feeling. Vidic is not even a shell of what William Saliba is. Saliba would start ahead of Vidic all day long
This is absolutely insane...thank you to all the team and to nemanja for this. This is legendary footage
Literally just seeing Rio and Vidic next to each other puts a smile on my face. A bunch of memories just flooded through my mind as well. Hope one day I can see a defensive duo like that again even if it's not at united(hopefully not for a club in england if it's not united)
WOW! This is mesmerising! Thank you Rio and the FIVE team for this superb gift. You can feel that Vida speaks with his heart and what his United years meant to him. Can't wait for part 2!
The parts where he speaks about Fergie is gold. He was a true Lieutenant! Leader on the pitch but understood that the General (Sir Alex) was always in charge. True locker room leader.
As a boyhood fan of the club and growing up idolising Vidic and Rio, this has to be the greatest episode by Vibe with 5. Thank you for making this happen ❤
I started watching prem in 2004 as a kid and growing up I always thought the Rio Vidic pairing was one of the best. Vidic was absolutely fearless and would tackle anything. Great interview.
The best CB and part of the best partnership the premier league and Manchester United has ever had. A legend, a scholar and an all round smashing bloke!!! Ladies and Gentlemen the one, the only Nemanja Vidic. What a show. I love these podcasts and you have just taken it up to a whole new level! I cannot say it loud enough, thank you for this.
chelsea fan here, vidic is premier league hall of fame without a doubt. Defo in the top 3 for all time best CB. Lefe pitch like had been in the ring with Mike Tyson
Saliba is way better.
What a legend. An icon.
Two United Legends, Absolute top level defenders. Love Vida thanks for the amazing memories ❤
Both are great defenders in their Prime....good 2 see u guys together again
I love this man!! Would love to see him work for United at some point
Nemanja Vidic, the best Manchester United defender of all time......cool, calm and collected.❤
Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic have shown us an amazing defensive combination for our club Manchester United in the Premier League.❤
What an excellent episode. Manchester United 2008 is always so nostalgic!
Rio your a G for this one! Absolutely love Vidic. Absolute monster of a player and such an interesting guy. Big ratings Ri for this one
Saliba is better.
That moment at 22:38 and the way Vidic looks at Rio shows the respect they have for each other and tells a lot about that partnership.
As a City supporter watched this guys with so much envy. Bro would head a ball that was on the ground away from an attacker. Top 5 CB of EPL era and I started watching in the 90s.
The bromance is to much 😮 Great Defender 💥

@@mathewkodakallil3955 Yh you a clown. I know its hard to understand. Saliba is better in every way. Vidic a peasant compared to Lord Saliba.
Hard to even argue with it tbh, most other duos come down to one player being better these two were in a league of their own AND a goated duo, Vidic without Rio or vice versa was still the same as John Terry with Gallas or the invincibles cb pair (I can't even remember them)
You can see his drive and determination in his future - bound to be a success beyond his great playing career.
Thanks for getting him on the channel guys
The chemistry between Vida and Rio will forever be there. Great show and love hearing from the main man! NEMANJA! OHHHHHH! NEMANJA! OHHHHHHHH!
Absolutely mint you guys were the best on the pitch, and seeing you guys together again shows the love and respect you have, great content lads, never seen Ste so quiet and happy and Joe-L was all ears soaking it all up well done👏🏻👍🏻
How he explained what made Fergie one of the best manager shows his excellent knowledge of the game 👌
Fergie was never a coach or tactical genius.. but was unreal man manager, leader and developer of talent.. stories of scouts scouting players
I remember when Vedic said
“ I am the solution to Manchester United's defensive problems”
Vidic and Rio are LEGENDS! I am a Man Utd fan from Nairobi, Kenya. I adore you guys.
