Wayne Rooney is more than capable of putting the ball in the back of the net, and more often than not, talented enough to produce something magical to turn the match in his team’s favor. His strike partner, Carlos Tevez, also has a knack for goal and is a major threat at the pinnacle of United’s attack.
Both Rooney and Tevez often drop deep to receive the ball from midfield and both players possess a similar style of play. The acquisition of Berbatov would add an entire new dimension to an already lethal attacking force, and, quite possibly, make the difference between a disappointing season and a trophy-laden season.
With less than four days left until the close of the transfer market, time is quickly running out for Manchester United, as well as Dimitar Berbatov. The English Champions face a tricky fixture list this season, with trips to Monaco and as far as Tokyo both scheduled before the turn of the year. United’s European success means they will be taking part in the UEFA Super Cup this Friday against Zenit St. Petersburg and will also be challenging for the FIFA Club World Cup in December.
Another attacking option would do United no harm, especially when it’s a player as talented and established as Berbatov. The Tottenham ace has scored 23 goals in his first season in England and matched that tally during last year’s campaign.
Manchester United could sure use 23 goals per season and with that amount of goals being guaranteed, Rooney and Tevez would have a lot of pressure lifted off their shoulders. If things remain the way they are, Manchester United, Tottenham, and Dimitar Berbatov will all regret not being able to come to an agreement.
