“I think [Lindelof] had a difficult time in the beginning,” Vidic said, as cited by Daily Express. “Well done to him to come back. It’s not easy, especially playing for Man United, big club, to not start that well and have criticism from the media.

“He has some quality definitely. He has done really well. I think Phil Jones did well in the recent games he played, Chris Smalling is a good defender, [Eric] Bailly as well. I think we have four solid defenders and with the right match, I think they can perform to the best of their capabilities.
“Overall, I said even before when they didn’t have great games, if you look at the other teams, I would not have any defenders of Liverpool or Chelsea, I don’t think they have better defenders than we have.
