Nemanja insists that the premier league table does not lie. Despite moving into top spot, Manchester United are still being forced to fend off critics.
It is a subject that irritates Sir Alex Ferguson judging by his program notes ahead of last week's encounter with Crawley.
However, his side's performance against the non-leaguers, followed by a drab display in Marseille, when even Ferguson admitted "nothing happened" have again raised question marks about United's title credentials ahead of a run of three away games, that include trips to Chelsea and Liverpool.
Vidic does not believe they have any foundation.
"I am not surprised by where we are. The table shows where we should be," said the United skipper.
"In some games we scored a goal in the last minute but there were others, at Everton and Fulham for instance, when we conceded them. We are where we are. We have the points we should have overall."
Three more are imperative on Saturday.
United have never failed to beat Wigan and now is not a great time to start given Roberto Martinez's men have been stuck in the relegation zone for the past couple of months and those tricky trips to Stamford Bridge and Anfield loom immediately afterwards.
Even though Ryan Giggs is the only absent from Wednesday night that Ferguson is reasonably confident of having available, the Red Devils' greatest danger would appear to be looking too far ahead. Not that Vidic is expecting that to happen.
"As players we don't have that kind of mentality," he said. "We are just taking it game by game. We have important matches to play but the next one is Wigan. We have to take the three points. I believe we can."
