Vidic cannot believe Man utd on top cause Man Utd play so badly




NEMANJA VIDIC cannot believe Manchester United are top - because they are playing so badly.

Premier League leaders United have drawn SEVEN of their nine away games.

And skipper Vidic said: "If someone had predicted we would lose this many points I'd have said we would not win the league, that's for sure.

"Our away record is not something we're proud of, yet here we are top and still unbeaten. But we want to improve and we must play better."

United's fortunate New Year's Day win at West Brom was only their second on the road this term.

Vidic added: "If we had won just half of the away games we have drawn we would have been out of reach by now.

"So it is very inconsistent from us and it's hard to explain why. Definitely in some games we did not perform well, but got the result. Then again sometimes we did play well and didn't get the result."

The Serbian star, 29, is clearly looking for a significant improvement in form and results in the second half of the campaign, starting tonight against Stoke at Old Trafford.

He added: "We still believe we can win the League and we have certainly shown this season we can play solid because we haven't lost.

"This season is very strange indeed - if you'd told me five weeks ago Chelsea wouldn't win for five or six games I wouldn't have believed you.

"Everyone thought Chelsea were the strongest team and that they would win the title... but after that they didn't win.

"And that shows how strong and competitive it is in the Premier League."
