I think he was very good tonight! He tackled, made fouls to stop our attacks, was dirty, wasted time! He will have a good career in Serie A! I can never hate him, had high hopes for him when he joined us!
He was giving 100% for Cagliari and that's shows the he protects the colors of the jersey he is wearing. If we play vs Leverkusen, you expect Vidal to play badly because he is playing vs his former team?
Not bothered about Ekdal either way. We did well for him and he did for us, took him from obscurity for a few hundred thousand and then made a few million off him. Now he has cemented himself as a Serie A standard player and is building towards a bigger move.
If he had moved to Chelsea aged 16 maybe he would have ended up like most of their kids - in the lower divisions.
