		<description>People say its not berbatov&#039;s fault we paid 30 million

no. but part of being a united player is having a strong mentality and the ability to cope with all kinds of pressure. berbatov clearly does not have this if the price tag is getting to him so much</description>

		<description>Berba&#039;s price tag and performances are not value for money. 

People are saying he has to go in the summer (should be not perform), however how much so you think we&#039;d actually get for him based on what he has produced in the past two seasons?</description>

		<description>His burden,
the £30M. numbers.
like it was his fault.

He appears to me, 
the kind of player, 
who didn&#039;t need the burden 
of this/that expectation,
and the intensity
of an endless £30M eyes scrutiny,
every pass, every game, every sub, 
every injury.

People tend to forget this game, too,
is so mental.</description>

		<description>A good post, original and worth reading.

Berbaflop isn&#039;t a United player. He isn&#039;t for numerous reasons. Firstly he is lazy, secondly he doesn&#039;t keep up with play and even when Rooney is playing with him it is like Rooney is playing on his own Berbaflop is miles behind play. Thirdly you need players who can produce critical moments in a game when it really counts, Rooney and Giggs are the only players who can do this on a regular basis for United nowadays.

Fourthly United&#039;s game most of the time has been about pace and breakaway and catching teams out. Berbaflop cannot do this and slows our attacks down.

People say he is like Cantona, what a joke that is. Cantona was a match winner and created countless opportunities for his team mates especially Cole. And produced in big games. Cantona also wasn&#039;t slow and didn&#039;t hold our team back on quick breakaways. 

Tevez was a far superior player and suited united&#039;s style. Also with Berbaflop Rooney is forced to play as a main striker which isn&#039;t his best role. Rooney should be played in the hole, he can do everything and more what Berbaflop offers.

Berbaflop is Fergie&#039;s worst ever buy. 

Looking at the present United team if we are going to get back to being the best team in the world again we need a major rebuilding. We require in the next 12 months a keeper, may be a right back although Rafael might be able to compete with O&#039;Shea and Brown and develop in to a top class player, although I think midfield is the way for both brothers as defensively they are suspect.

I also think we need at least one midfield player a goalscoring midfield player to play with Fletcher who is our only world class midfield player.

Wingers, I like Valencia and Obertan but I am far from certain both will be in the Beckham, Kanchelskis, Giggs, Ronaldo, Sharpe class. And that is what we require. We also 
require a striker such as a Vila or Benzema et al to partner Rooney. Although i have been told Diouf is a special talent. I also like Macheda but if I hadn&#039;t heard Fergie go on and on about Welbeck I wouldn&#039;t have thought he had much chance. But Fergie is God so he must have something.

Do we have funds, I am beginning to doubt it as the old Fergie would not be a shrinking violet if he knew we required major rebuilding.</description>
