United, Here We Go!

I have been a Manchester United (MU) fan since my teens. I have been a great admirer of former MU captain (dubbed "Captain Marvel") Bryan Robson. Some of the great achievements of the club include the 1998/1999 treble (European, EPL & FA cup champions) and becoming the 2007/2008 EPL & UEFA Champions League champs.

I am glad that for the 2008/2009, MU managed to secure the service of Dimitar Berbatov from Tottenham Hotspurs after a long transfer saga.

MU really needed an out and out striker that could help them score despite Cristiano Ronaldo's 31 goals in the 2007/2008 season (Ronaldo won the European Golden Shoe & UEFA Footballer of the Year). MU needs a goal poacher with the likes of Ruud Van Nistelrooy.

Berbatov is the Bulgarian national team's captain. He has a very impressive scoring record of 1 goal in every 2 games that he played from 1999–2008:

CSKA Sofia - 50 games played (25 goals scored)

Bayer Leverkusen - 154 (69)

Tottenham Hotspur - 101 (46)

I can't wait to see him in action for the Red Devils against arch rivals Liverpool next weekend!
