Manchester United's Nemanja Vidic has confessed to a growing fear
of flying. The Old Trafford Serbian-born defender tells Inside
United the official magazine of Manchester United "I'm starting
to get more worried each time I fly.
"My wife isn't very good on planes and the more travelling I do
with her the more she makes me nervous. "And obviously I travel a
lot with Manchester United, so sometimes I think the more I get on
the plane, the more chance there is of something going wrong. "I
think Sir Bobby Charlton is amazing. He was involved in a terrible
air crash yet he still flies. He is a very, very courageous man. I
cannot imagine doing that, definitely not."
Vidic says training with players like Rooney, Ronaldo, Tevez and
Saha has helped him become a better player. "Training with those
players would make anyone better. And it's not just those four.
There are so many great players here, people who can beat you one
on one, he said. "That's fantastic from my point of view because
it helps gauge where I am. There's also competition for places, and
I can do with tough challenges in training. "It all helps me
improve and keep my place in the team."
