Dimitar Berbatov - All 56 Goals and 22 Assists for Manchester United - 2008 - 2012
As a Bulgarian I am proud of him, but he was so heavily criticized from our media because of the national team. The whole nation was expecting him to score at least 3 goals a match and carry alongside Martin Petron and Stiliyan Petrov. That was unfair. We treated him so badly. While ManU and Totenham's fans loved him more than his own nation. Well I am not sure about Totenham anymore, but ManU's fans loved him as far as I was seeing. He just had such a unique slow paced, intelligent look over the game. Kinda reminds me of Zidane. I remember talking to my father one day and he said: "There's something about him. He is always on the right place at the right time. Like the ball wants to go towards him so he can score". Viewing this clip just makes me confirm that and seeing the good comments just makes me proud that he was the last Bulgarian world class worthy player.
not slow paced pure class gifted foresight your right a exceptional player
mm... as scholes has once said - about doing the right thing as a certain player than doing some over the top things on the reason why he never try to over run or do extra step overs despite his talent. It is same with Berba. He does the right thing which is more productive and still stylish and amazing. makes things look so easy peasy...
As football fan I just love him .wat a player super talented.lotss of lv
Berbatov was the Bulgarian version of Cantona/Le Tissier/Zlatan
Брато, това е вярно, че феновете на Тотнъм и Манчестър Юнайтед го уважават повече от самите българи, но той това си го е заслужил, защото според мен можеше да постигне много повече неща за националките, поне голове щеше да вкара, щеше да бъде много полезен за отбора, но той какво направи на 30 години се отказа от националния, кой каквото и където си е заслужил 😏
Many times he was called "lazy player" , but the truth is he just knew how to manage his energy and stamina.
Aka jealous people who don't recognize soccer talent. He was very energetic and fast.
& he still comes to watch the new utd lads whenever he can. Respect!
Had to come and remind myself of this magic man. Even as a Villa fan the man was class
Since you're a Villa fan, I guess you should know they are best friends with Stiliyan Petrov. When Berbatov came to CSKA Sofia Stiliyan was the first man to talk to him and get him into the way the team was playing. Later they continued their friendship and transferred their common plays in the Bulgarian national team. Shortly after Stan was diagnosed with leukaemia Berbatov published a letter he had been writing to him for all the years both had been playing football. Now Berbatov is a candidate for president of the Bulgarian Football Union with Stan being one of his assistants. Even if I am a Man United fan, I am a Bulgarian before all. And I also will never forget what Stiliyan Petrov did for this team. Both of them were more than awesome players. Stan, the tenacious box-to-box midfielder, who never stops running and wanting the ball. And Berbatov, the striker, who always was two moves before the defenders and always knew what to do with the ball before even touching it. Legends forever. So sad Bulgaria no longer has players like them.
The man who made me fall in love with watching Manchetser Untied. The most elegant footballer I have ever seen. Effortless.
Dimitar Berbatov, a magician and an absolute star.
Manchester United when they played like this were the best team in the world in my opinion. Look at the crisis they're in now
Berbatov, Ronaldo, Rooney, and Tevez. Enough said.
It's easy to see why we struggling to b 4th
3 of them are definitely the best players of their country ever. No wonder we were unnstopeable.
Add Nani off the bench and giggs to that mix too and you have a UCL winning team
@@elyeicovanterco6093 yeah all of them are except tevez, but yeah they were deadly, it was scary for me as an Arsenal fan
@@elyeicovanterco6093 Berbatov isn't the best Bulgarian player ever
Best thing about Berbatov was that he's always executed his movements exactly as the moment required. Nothing more, nothing less - and that's what made him a great striker.
Just look how many of his goals and assists came from balls in the air. Berbatov himself said the reason why he could do so well with balls in the air is because when he was a kid in Bulgaria they played on concrete, they had to adapt and be able to control high, bouncing balls.
@@BugWalk 😮
No he actually used a basketball, becouse at one point his family couldn’t afford football
Mario Rusinov spot on, I remember he said that!
@@BugWalk what a great memory, thanks for sharing! Hope you enjoyed Bulgaria!
Most football playgrounds in Bulgaria are still like that. Very few have a carpet.
Lukaku would only dream for berbatov's first touch.
Lukaku is nothing. Poor gay
Ahahah cuz he is bulgarian❤️
berbatov first touch is second to none.
Lukaku probably dreams only about food. He cant even dream of Berbatov's touch.
Check your records lukakau has scored many premier legue goals than berbatov actually lukaku is in top 28 premier legue goal scorers of all time he got 100+ goals
One of the biggest mistakes of Sir Alex was to not play this man in the final of the Champions League (2010-11). He decided to choose players like Hernandez and Owen, over prime Berbatov. I am pretty sure that if the Bulgarian played that night, United could have had a bigger chance of winning it. The downfall of United started, when this man was thrown away for players like Danny Welbeck and Javier Hernandez.
Berbatov scored 0 in 7 CL games that season
@@fitnesse9055But became the Premier League top scorer...
@@smarty-br8ogOne of the most overrated seasons in football history. 13 of his 20 goals were in 5 games. He regularly went on goal droughts and was dropped for Chicharito by the end of the season
No other player with the casual brilliance and the results, that Berbatov has.
In my early years what made me watch football and become a Manchester United fan was Berbatov. By that time he had moved on to United and my dad watched every game he played. His insight into the game and his incredible first touch impressed me every time. And since then, for over 10 years, I have continued to support my beloved team even though we are not as strong anymore
Incredible skills and vision for the game. The amazing talent of placing himself on the right spot at the right time and scoring unique goals. Well done Berbo
Един от великите българи, прославили Родината! Браво Бербо!
:D
😀😀😀😀😁😁😁
that 2008-09 team, one the most complete squads ever put together in the history of football GK Van der saar DF Vidic, Ferdinand, Evra, Neville, Evans, Rafael MD Scholes, Carrick, Fletcher, Park, Anderson, Nani, Giggs FW Rooney, Tevez, Ronaldo, Berbatov, Saha
Saha left that summer to Everton fam
You also fail to mention O’Shea among that defense, I’d definitely place him ahead of Evans. Scored in the first leg against Arsenal in the semifinals of the CL that season
Most of mu fans love him. I just feel the club should talk about him more / consider him as one their legends bcoz he is the first player to score a hattrick against liverpool after 64 years and the bicycle kick was pure genius .
Magician on the pitch. So unpredictable and clever with the ball at his feet. Absolute legend. He made me proud to be a Red Devils fan. Incredibly skillful and a talented player. Charisma and field influence/presence unreal. Football was epic and beautiful in this era unlike today unfortunately. It's all about greed now. It's not the same as it used to be. Most badass, stylish and masterclass footballer ever.
Greatest forward I’ve ever seen play, I became a Spurs fan because of him. That season at Spurs was in my opinion his best but I loved seeing Man U play thanks to him as well. So smooth with all his touches.
Berbatov was pure class and underrated ❤️⭐
Everything this man did was pure class
Това е легенда ще остане в историята 🇧🇬✌️
1:03 created the most useful fifa skill of all time.
...and then perfect pass!
this guy was pure class never looked like he broke a sweet
Criminally underrated but that’s what you get for playing on a team with so many legends and that’s coming from an arsenal fan
Unbelievable player, lucky enough to see him in the flesh week in, week out for a few years at OT. Weirdly though, my favourite memory of him is his pen for Spurs v Chelsea in the 08 league cup final. The coolness of the man in that situation was ridiculous!
Berbatov what a brilliant and genius of a player. Peace!
He makes everything looks easy.. Touches, positioning, passes, taps, goals..
That spin against West Ham made him a legend. Such class 👌
United should build a statue of him So underrated
Well, he did spend a lot of time on the pitch standing still...
@Kamen Braykov Why are Bulgarians so biased towards Berbatov? He was no Stoictkov, he achieved nothing with Bulgaria national team, he never won the champions league and for ManUtd he was Berbaflop, a waste of 30million. That goal at 2:12 was his only ManUtd goal against a top5 team in his 4 seasons at the club so definitely no statue for him sorry only legends get statues. He never won the FAcup either and he singlehandedly cost ManUtd at least 2 FAcup's in semi-finals 2008/09 & 2010/11 and those 2 seasons were actually much better ones from him compared to his other 2 and 2009/10 overall he was abysmal and played a part in destroying ManUtd's bid to win a record 4th PL title in a row, played in the 3rd round FAcup match vs Leeds where ManUtd lost to the 3rd tier team at home, scored no champions league goals etc...He only scored 5 champions league goals altogether in 4 seasons and they were all group stage goals, 2 vs Aalborg in his first season 08/09, 2 at home to Celtic same season and then his next and last was 3 years later in his final season at home to Benfica which still wasn't enough to get through the group. So no important champions league goals or performances worth mentioning. His best season 2010/11 Hernandez was still ManUtd's most important striker. He scored just 1 less overall but scored in a lot more games than Berbatov and many close games. A quarter of Berbatov's goals that season came in 1 game vs Blackburn in a 7-1 win which sums him up because it was a game ManUtd would've won anyway without his goals but when it's a much more important time where he has some really good chances vs a better team at 0-0 he misses them, fails to score any and ManUtd go on to narrowly lose.
@@kevinsavuwa Yeah well whatever you call him, it didn't work at ManUtd that's a fact. Also he wasn't an important player for the only giant club he ever played for. Him coming to ManUtd made Tevez leave, therefore ManUtd didn't have as much success as they would've maintained with Tevez. Obviously the arrival of Javier Hernandez helped but this was after the 4 in a row record was already lost.
@@cddb5408 I know you - you are one of those that say that Messi never accomplished anything with his national team. That he is only good thanks to Iniesta and Xavi. That him coming made Ronaldinho leave. Obviously the arrival of Suarez helped but that was after 4 in a row record was already lost! Fuck off you silly little man! You know nothing of football - bulgarians might be blinded and biased towards Berbatov, but they dont hate on Tevez or Rooney - go with your bullshit statistics somewhere else - if footbal was statistics - Usain Bolt would of been the most prolific striker ever! But he is not - and you are not a smart man either!
@@dididimilo6307 well said brother. in football stats are almost irrelevant. if they matter then great midfielders and fullbacks would be ranked below bottom tier striker
Fuckin outstanding player, very overlooked when looking at the best players to grace the PL
1st man utd player to score hatrick vs liverpool in 64 years 😁 that just shown his true colours.he is hungry inside,lazy outside.pure talent,classy player.i’d love to see someone played like him nowaday.maybe he should train martial,to be more clinical&deadly in front of goal.
Fantastic mix : Rooney - Berbatov
2008 - Berbatov Tevez Rooney Ronaldo 2019 - Lukaku Rashford Lingard Martial 😭😭😭
Hahaha
Rashford and Martial are still young. They can be very good players. Need the right temperament and some very good players with them.
i like martial he is very talented
Rashford has great potential.
But martial is lazy
for some reason Berbatov and Rooney just seems so coordinated together. Both of them had little to no selfishness. Unlike most of the scoring title strikers, both of them are willing and happy to assistant others. Even with greats such as Messi or C Ronaldo, there is still moments you would say may be they should pass that. But with Berbatov and Rooney, its just seems they always making the right choice at the right moment.
thats a good point, they made the right decisions and shared tings for each other and the team. Forwards need to be greedy, but also have to know when to give the ball to the other guy!
90% of his goals aren’t easy
True. He made them look easy. Master.
Ванио и ти би ги вкарал тия 90 % нали ? Само че работиш за смешна заплата .

Must of been a nightmare for the other team when you've got Ronaldo, Rooney and Tevez running at you from all angles - and then Berbatov just strolls up and scores a beauty.
Not a single boring goal or assist with this guy... 7:03 love this pass to Scholes and the finish
Прекрасный футболист, отличный нападающий. Сколько он забил мячей ножницами и ударами через себя. И вообще прекрасный атакующий состав тогда был у МЮ: Эвра, Гиггз, Скоулз, Руни, Роналду, Бербатов и, конечно же, Карлитос Тевез
Carrick is so underrated in this video. None of the midfielders in the current squad passes like him.
Absolutely stunning first touch! Great dribbling and vision. Brilliant technique. Only downside, sometimes losses motivation. Imho one of the skilled forwards played in United.
I never thought that. He just saved his energy whilst others ran like headless chickens.
Majestic player and weirdly underrated. That overhead v the Scousers was unreal
No mention of this man when it comes to epl greats but for me he was the reason why I loved man u even more .lv u berba ur first touch was out of this world .love and lots of respect u will always be remembered amongst man u all time greats
As a Real Madrid supporter, I think that Man U was the best team in the world from 2007 to 2009. Imo.
Fitting they became World champions in 2008 then wasn't it lol
I’d say in 2007 it was still ac Milan, from 2008 to 2009 defo Man United
2009 Chelsea was the best team
@@nishhnishh1088 where?
Arjun अर्जुन् * 2010
Every goal he scored was beautyful GREAT PLAYER
Carrick long pass + Berbatov first touch = 🔥🔥🔥
Super efficient and effective striker
I remember that I was very happy that he came at Old Trafford! Unfortunately I couldn't watch his every single game but I am happy to watch all of these highlights. Pure talent! his forst touch was unreal!
The magician from BULGARIA
He was so fun to watch. He’s worth the price of any ticket.
Such a player, touch and vision was exceptional
My goodness, what a class S stylist forward! 1:06, 4:27; 4:23; 7:19 are beast of plays
1:05 Pure magic
Watching with tears of joy 😢
Pure class player, amazing technique and skills
United hasn't been the same since my guy left. Very instrumental in Ronaldo and Rooney's start to their careers. Dude was like a puppet master and everyone else was puppet's..Even Valencia was scoring goals..smdh
Striker with plenty of assists... that's rare
Karim Benzema
1:06 unbelievebale
rooneys best numbers in a season... when berba played 9. says it all
Highly underrated. He seemed nonchalant at firs but gets the job done. You can tell he loves spectacular goals. 👍
Berbatov legend striker menchester united ❤❤❤👍👍👍
Amazing moments from berbatov
4:42 holy...
I could watch this video every weekend instead of the garbage games that United play.
Epic ball control when the ball is in the air. Im also bulgarian. As young i used to train soccer and this was one of the first things the coach taught us! Nowdays im not a big football fan, but i can feel the thousands trainings behind those perfect 1-1,5m high ball control. i was attacker, but even i got many hours as a goalkeeper training, just to learn how to controll 1m high ball shoot, which later it looked more like passing.
As Saying said, 'We only appreciate things after we lose it' Looking at Berbatov, we need someone like him now to mature up our young striker; Rashford, Martial and Greenwood I am very happy with Ole choice to build the team around the youngster, however, we need them to mature up and be more clinical in front of goal, cause thats what we needed in these past 3 games Thus, I would love Man Utd to get Ibrahimovic back to the team (on loan), to train, to lead and provide experience and maturity not just to the team and youngsters but for us at the front Who's with me? 😁
Im with you . We know football well
Any and every striker now and years to come have a lesson to learn from this goal raker Berbatov.
looking at speed and quality of the football utd used to play makes me feel sad for what utd are now
Scholes, Rooney, Ronaldo, Nani, Teves and Giggs alongside Dimitar. Those were the days
I still try to understand why SAF leave him out of the team against Barcelona, final UCL ??? In this year he was in top performance and he didn't deserve that from his coach. Anyway we know how finished that final without him !!!!!
SAF over-think it back then.
Yeah i always hate the excesive care he had having such great players at his disposal
Some stylish goals in there!
berbatov just perfect
That hat trick against Looserpool (and especially the second goal) and those 5 goals against Blackburn will remain forever. Lukaku should watch and learn how you stop a ball and shoot
To be fair, a lot of Berba's goals were first touch
Alexander Stoyanov looserpool schut up best team in the premium league
@@sebastienlecluyse661 lolol sure thing mate but in another universe :)
Because of the perfect attacking positioning maybe?One of the most important things for one complete forward...Basics of football...

Senstional Player. Touch of magic. Great player!
Such class. A true great player. Good lord!
The good old days such a sad situation right now to be a United fan
berba was special player .. so cool !
God bless u for making compalations like this one😍😍😍
chris devon He didn’t make this compilation. He copied it.
A special player for sure.
Top player
was onto being a real united fan during this time, remember all the goals, classic player at most times frustrating with a team that ran on high expectations..
НЕВЕРОЯТЕНИЯ И ВЕЛИКОЛЕПЕН БЕРБАТОВ ! БРАВО ЗЕМЛЯК,ГОРДЕЕМ СЕ С ТЕБ !
Lol just got this in my recommended. Cheers for taking my video, did a shoddy job of blurring out my name though 😉
Bjarni Erlingur I love your videos Keep up the good work
Just copystrike him
Great player, who only made 2 mistakes in his career. 1. Staying the last year with Man United, despite Alex Ferguson leaving him (the best goalscorer of the Premier League) out of the squad for the Champions League final against Barcelona (Reminder Barca-ManU 4:0!!!). And 2. Signing with Fulham instead Fiorentina or Juventus. Alex Ferguson - what a great manager, but in this case an a.h.
Haven't heard our fans scream like that in a while especially at home every goal
My favourite no 9 in mu.genius.
I'm still mad at SAF for not letting him play that CL final.
Made it look easy. Pure class
Ronaldo was so lucky he can play whit the superstar Berbatov :)
imagine we were criticizing him saying he did not use all the chances he get but now we are using martial and lingared . we didn't give him enough recognition and respect
Easy to forget just how good he was and Fergie even dropped him at times!! Couldn't buy him for less than a hundred million these days.
All beauty goals, Only one BERBATOV
Best target man you can ever asked no matter how he has to touch the ball inside the box and scores it
I love berbatov 🥰🥰
Great player
I loved Berbatov so so much! So clever and such a supreme artist of a footballer very much in the mould of Eric, that maybe lacked that little bit of nastiness needed, but still maybe his Ronaldo assist was worth it all by itself! But in the end Tevez suited our style of play so much more & should of been our priority to have kept.
I love man united this era''' Without stupid young'' lingaard and pogba
Dont include pogba confused clown
touch of a genius.. classy..
Most underrated striker . His first touch 😍
А good football player makes things look easy !
