==Career==

===Amateur===
Vide attended high school while playing for [TSV Munich 1860](/source/TSV_Munich_1860)'s youth team in [Munich](/source/Munich%2C_Germany), [Germany](/source/Germany). He played four years at the [University of Virginia](/source/University_of_Virginia) as a defensive midfielder and became a regular for the Cavaliers by his senior year.  In 2004, he spent the collegiate off season with the [Richmond Kickers Future](/source/Richmond_Kickers_Future) in the [USL Premier Development League](/source/2004_PDL_season).

===Professional===
Vide was selected fifth overall in the [2006 MLS Supplemental Draft](/source/2006_MLS_Supplemental_Draft) by [MetroStars](/source/MetroStars).

After not featuring in the clubs plans during the early part of the 2007 campaign, Vide began to receive significant playing time earning 16 appearances and 13 starts due to injuries to first team midfielders [Claudio Reyna](/source/Claudio_Reyna) and [Dema Kovalenko](/source/Dema_Kovalenko). He also made his playoff debut against [New England Revolution](/source/New_England_Revolution) on November 3, playing 77 minutes. His tenacious play and ability on the ball in the center of the field was a revelation and quickly established Vide as a fan favorite.

On July 16, 2008, he was claimed by [D.C. United](/source/D.C._United). He scored his first MLS goal for United against Colorado on August 23. Despite solid performances for D.C., he was waived by the club in February 2009.
