Fergie on Vidic signing

"I'm very happy. There was a period when a lot of negotiation had to be done. There were other clubs interested and there was an issue with the Italian club. Fortunately, we were able to resolve the problem and I'm delighted that he's here. The difficult thing about making your move in these situations is if you go too early, before the window opens, you can alert other clubs. So there's a timing involved in that. When we realised Fiorentina were involved, we had to move quite quickly then so we probably started to put things in motion at the beginning of December."
