games since berbatov arrival
liverpool away - sets up a goal in the first 5 mins, then is isolated as the team drops deeper and deeper, going for long balls, lacking width and any shape - lose 2-1
chelsea away - has his shot saved which parks scores on rebound, not really in the game as chelsea dominate in the second half, some neat touches in the first whilst still isolated, draw 1-1
bolton home - starts slowly then in the second half starts to find his feet, and as soon as rooney and scholes are introduced, magic starts to happen, 1 touch, nice intelligent play and interchange, no surprise its instigated by the 3 geniuses patrolling the field. result 2-0
see a pattern?
He is slowly finding his form and fitness in a new team, give him a little more time and you wont be disappointed, the signs are there, he just has to find his role in the team, not all players have immediate impacts, but he is paying his way in, and he is a great player who cant be held down for too long, we just need to play through him because he loves the responsibility, we cant ignore his graciousness on the football pitch like we did in the first halve
