What are you basing that on?
It's the impression he gives off on the pitch, to me anyway. Looks like he couldn't be arsed most of the time, and more worryingly he goes missing in games...whereas others are more likely to stand up and try to change things.

Oh Berbatov
You're just so slick
But please don't stand there like a prick
When we haven't got the ball
You don't do very much at all.

Oh Berbatov
When you first came
People on the caf all raised their game
And their glasses, and some their cocks
But please get in the fecking box.

Nah, don't think it has a lot to do with bias.

It's just idiotic and I don't understand how anyone can think Berbatov's as talented as Bergkamp.
Well, put it this way. Only United fans or absolute biased Tottenham fans would mention Berbatov is the same breath as Bergkamp. With all due respect to Berbatov, Bergkamp has been one of the best players even to play in the PL.

Yeah, but even the most biased United fans wouldn't think Berbatov's as good as Bergkamp, unless he's idiotic as well.

Has as much to do with idiocy as it has to do with bias.

Fair enough. You would have to be idiotic to mention them in the same breath.

Tevez is a level above Berbatov, has a pedigree to him prior to going to the PL Berbatov does not and Owen has never and will never be on Henry's level.

In other words, your comparison is way off.

I'd just like to know what Berbatov has done to be mentioned in the same breath as Henry.
Interesting how things change in just a couple of years.

OK, you're limiting it to the Prem, so at least that makes things clearer, but even there I've never said that Berbatov is the best in the Prem right now - Drogba for one must be a strong contender for that accolade.

As for Rooney, I've said that he's a very different type of player to Berbatov, so comparisons are a bit like comparing apples with oranges. But yes, for me whilst they are pretty close in overall ability I'd say that Berbatov maybe just shades it.

I don't expect much support (if any) for that view on a United board, but there you go.
Man, that's bad.

:lol:!!

Drogba, Rooney, Saha, Van Persie, Carlos Tevez, etc...
Scousers and a lot of others would say Torres.
Anyone who has watched Shevchenko for more than a year would say him too.

Good point though....seriously.
Moron.
Hmm, another one saying Tevez > Berbatov.

Rooney and Drogba I'll give you, but there's no way Saha, McCarthy and Bent are better than Berbatov. Not on your nelly, neither is Van Persie for that matter.
Spammy in 'talking the most sense on here' shocker.

Er, Henrys become rather rubbish now.
Heh, that's bad like.

Some of those posts are ridiculous.

Rooney is a hundred times better than Berbatov.

And as for who's better between Tevez & Berbatov, that is certainly still open to debate.

Van Persie and Berbatov would be an interesting discussion.

Henry is still not finished, never mind back in 2007.
