Vidic proud to be part of Man Utd record breaking defence

Central defender Nemanja Vidic is proud to be part of Manchester United's record-breaking 13 successive Premier League clean sheets. "I am very proud and happy to be part of a team that created the record," said the Serbia international.

"We are delighted to have the new record but we will try to keep going and doing the same things we have done in the past because the most important thing is to win games."

Vidic and United keeper Edwin van der Sar are the only ever-presents during that amazing run.

"I am very happy to be part of this defence," the 27 year old said.

"I have been there all the time and it is a nice feeling to know you have not lost a goal for so many games.

"As defenders we can take a lot of credit because our job is to keep clean sheets.

"It is obvious we have done well over the last few months and I have really enjoyed it."
