Nemanja Vidic might be Manchester United's star defender, but nothing can beat the feeling of scoring a goal. It is a feat he has managed six times already this term, including efforts against Sunderland and Chelsea and now he has Sunday's opponents Tottenham in his sights.

"I love that feeling when you score," he said.

"It is fantastic as a defender because it is not one of your main jobs.

"I always try to score when I can by taking up good positions in the box and going up for corners. If you get lucky, it is brilliant."
