Great conspiracy theory though. :-)

He'll play again, but I don't think he'll be as good. Getting to an age where he's on a downwards slope, which with the serious injury he has just suffered, that slope will become a lot steeper.
Was a cracking center half though, and is still better than a lot in the top half of the prem, irrelevant of his injury.

Rumour has to be bollox, he's almost 31, we'd pay through the nose for him and there is no guarantee he'll ever be able to play at the level he was at prior to his injury.
On the last point, it will be interesting to see if he has lost anything from that injury - rags without Vidic are a lot less solid at the back.

I don't want him but could you image Kompany and Vidic with Richards and Clichy....

Vidic is past his best. Injury prone too.

Doubt very much he'll be anywhere near the same player again, I've had an ACL reconstruction so have a pretty good idea of how it can/will limit him both physically and mentally, to play professionally and reach his old standards, no, just can't see it, I'm secretly hoping they take a chance and don't go out and buy a replacement :-).

Is your mate sure it was Vidic and not Skrtel?

Lot less? They are absolute crap at the back.

Don't say that, I've had my ACL done as well, and am still holding on to the dream Mancini will spot me out the crowd give me a run out .
Patella graft, what did you have?
