Wishlist Dimitar Berbatov

Pathetic thread...

[Tricky 301]

Bump this.....

Guy is perfect for us, would accept a squad place, links up well with midfield and is comfortable with his back to goal. His age is perfect as it would allow Lukaka to develop and make the step up in a few years. Plus his value is reduced, can't see United wanting 5 strikers on their books.

Sign him, Tricky has spoken.

Would take Berba in an instance, hes 30 or 31, got 2 years left in him at the highest level but still what he has in technical ability and footballing intelligence age doesn't really matter. Lukaku would hopefully become good by then and him and Sturridge could fight it out for the main striking role as I imagine Torres will be even shitter in 2 years.

need a bigger guy, tevez, falcao, holt, etc.

Wait we need a bigger guy upfront? Why say Tevez and Falcao then!! Tevez is 5 ft 7 and Falcao is 5 ft 9.

Couldn't agree more, never realized Berbativ has roughly a 2:1 strike rate at United, he can hold up the ball bring others into play, score goals and is cheap!!! HELLO!!!

Stick a bid in, I Berbatovs PR agent have spoken.

We're not going to sign a 31 year old striker lol.

Why not? The last thing we need is a young striker with Sturridge and Lukaku at the club.

Berbatov as a back-up striker for the next two years would be great. By that time, Lukaku would be ready to actually play a part in the first team.

Don't want the manc reject

[Tricky 301]

His age is the best thing about this deal, provides experience (something people seem to bang on about), plus would be on his way out just as Lukaka and Sturridge are on the way in.

His ability to link up with midfield is just what we need given the abundance of attacking talent we have bought. His goal tally is more than impressive. Plus he is very cheap £5-6 million and he is ours.

But hey screw it lets sign another £40 million pound player, after all it's not our money.

Any particular reason? Can think of a lot of rejects which did very well once they moved on.

[sleazyB 58]

It might make sense, but having to watch him play seems very underwhelming. So it's a no thanks from me.

Alright going by that logic, then we should sign a 30 something year old midfielder just so he can leave in a couple years and McEachran can have a chance?

We won't win things doing that, if Lukaku and Sturridge are good enough then they should be able to challenge whoever we bring in, and that person should definitely not be Man utd's 5th choice striker.

Berbatov scores goals and that's a good thing from a backup striker.

So Pirlo is available on a free an your response would be?

Pirlo is world class, i don't think any team can turn him down even at his age. But Berbatov is not.

Yes and that's great, but it's his age that concerns me the most. 31 years old and is probably (or will soon be) on the decline.
