Berba fans don't like admittng how much Berba relied on Rooney. Even the season earlier when Rooney was on fire until his injury, not only did Rooney's goals stop after the injury that season but Berba's lame tally (which was about the same amount as ManUtd scored via own goals that season) didn't extend either.

Berbatov's playstyle was lowkey ahead of its time. Somewhere between a false 9 with great touch along with his vision, and a true goal poacher who's ready to strike at moment's notice. He might be comparable to Benzema, but his playstyle was more elegant.

Lol you compared him to a better player so for all the world it looks like when you say "but" you're going to say something like "but...obviously not quite at that level nor anywhere near as consistent nor anywhere near as much of a big game player as Benzema"...but no after the "but" you say something which indicates that you think Berbaflop is better than Benzema.

Not really, you could see the decline beginning after 2009, Ferguson worked wonders to keep the team competitive. By 2011, most of the squad was either aging or just average. Players like Berbatov (already 30), Chicharito (a fantastic sub but not really starter material), and Nani were carrying the load. Rooney was still good but clearly not the same force he once was. Then in 2013, it was basically Robin van Persie, at 30, single-handedly winning the league. United were relying on a few world-class players who were nearing or past their peak, and as a fan, I could see that the team’s future beyond a few years looked bleak.
