Defender at pains to correct rain remarks
Manchester United defender Nemanja Vidic has insisted that he is not looking to move away from Old Trafford.
The Serbia international centre-back was quoted in Russian magazine
Football Weekly, in which he criticised the weather in Manchester and life in England.
Vidic did discuss his difficulties in initially settling in following his move from Spartak Moscow in January 2006, but feels the majority of his comments have been taken out of context.
Very happy
He told the club's
official website: "I'd like to clarify that I did not make these particular remarks. I spoke about the difficulty I had settling in to life in Manchester, but that does not reflect how I feel now.
"I enjoy my life very much as a footballer at Manchester United and I'm very happy to be a part of this great club.
"I think I show that in the way I play every week. I also have far too much respect for the people of Manchester, and England, to criticise them in this way."
