But what neutral observers of Berbatov's performances for Man Utd mostly remember, unfortunately are his "headline misses" of sitters. > > The difference is that, at United, goals come from all over the pitch > moreso than at most other EPL clubs. But thats totally irrelevant to the number of opportunities where Berbatov should most definitely have scored but simply didn't. It was Berbatov in front of goal with the ball at his feet. Nobody else. Unfortunately. Where � multi-million strikers are concerned the excuses can only go on for so long. Face facts chum. If Fergie could arrange a behind-the-scenes deal to offload Berbatov and the player was happy, Berbatov would be out of Old Trafford faster than a rat up a drainpipe. And it would be smiles all round. > > Keep it up, though, your ignorance of the game is astounding. Assuming he's picked his performances will speak for themselves.

AF made a > mistake when he paid �30mil for him. Well, he had an average season last year, but still managed to almost match Stevie Me in the Actim Stats.... In which case, I expect Stevie Me to be sold ASAP, as a 'flop'. And Reina, too. Closely followed by Gareth Barry, who is ranked lower than Berbatov. And perhaps also John Terry, who was similarly only a handful of points ahead. I suspect your ABU stance is colouring your view on this one. -- SteveH

Yes of course it is Steve, of course it is ... now run along and repeat to yourself that Berbatov must have been worth �30mil as AF never makes a mistake and even if he did (which he didn't) he has a bunch of mugs who will prove he didn't make a mistake (which of course he didn't).

Only if we could replace him with a better player. Which, of course, for �25m, we couldn't. -- SteveH |
