Vidot's problems are not un-fixable. Teaching a player to have a world class feel for the game, or acquire match winning imagination like Andrew Johns, is impossible. However, Vidot's issues are just catching bombs and defence. Catching a bomb isn't hard to teach; Barba used to be terrible.
Defence is not a hard skill to teach either. Look at how bad Gaz used to be. He then turned into one of our best defenders after he came back. Defence is all about attitude, commitment, structure and technique- which isn't rocket science. Soward for example doesn't have a defensive attitude. He may have improved but he still flaps his arms at players helplessly. If he had more attitude and commitment he would rip in with his shoulder. Vidot certainly has the attacking capabilities to make a great winger or centre. He has size, power, and while admittedly he isn't the fastest, neither is Nightingale. He can finish too. So yeah sure, he may have his flaws at the moment, but there is plenty of room for improvement to make him a great player.
