The centre-back has been primarily rooted to the treatment table for the past few months but recently managed to overcome his fitness problems and thus was included in the party that faced Sunderland on the weekend.
Old Trafford saluted the return of their defensive general and the Serb came on for the last few minutes in a bid to prove his abilities. While it wasn’t his best outing, the player did not enough to convince Sir Alex Ferguson that he was indeed back.
Now the Scot faces a decision whether to include the central defender in his plans for Swansea City or risk youthful options, who could cave into the pressure at the Liberty Stadium.
While the decision is up to Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752, Jones is still delighted with Vidic’s comeback and claims that he will battle with the former Spartak Moscow man in a bid to land a regular role in the starting eleven.
“It’s a fantastic boost for us to have Nemanja back. He’s a fantastic player, a great captain and it’s important that we have players like him returning for the busy Christmas and New Year period. I enjoy the competition, it’s fantastic to have a number
of players battling for the same position. It keeps people on their toes and fighting for the shirt.”
Continuing, Jones also reflected back on his own injury woes and claimed that were very frustrating as he watched his teammates grinding out results from the stands.
“I was tearing my hair out it was so frustrating. I just wanted to be out here playing and to get last season out of my system, but I couldn’t. I got back from one injury and then on my first or second day back in training I did my knee. I thought I’d hit
rock bottom,” the player was quoted as saying to the media.
