Manchester United's Vidic insists he won't be mugging up on Fulham
Nemanja Vidic is not going to spend too much time doing background work on what Fulham pair Andrew Johnson and Bobby Zamora are likely to do in the FA Cup this weekend.
By no means is Vidic's attitude a measure of over-confidence from a player who was a central component in Manchester United's record run of clean sheets.
It is more to do with the fact Vidic feels an over-reliance on statistics can affect your focus, which is a point worth listening to given the Serbian is in line to become this season's player of the year.
"I don't really study statistics of our upcoming opponents," Vidic told Inside United.
"There is too much talk about shots on target and things like that.
"Sometimes it can be about luck, other times we do the job well.
"The main thing is that we win games and win trophies. Then we can be proud of what we have done at the end of each season."
After sitting out last weekend's Carling Cup final, Vidic should be involved at Craven Cottage as United try to book a semi-final slot for the fourth time in six years.
