This a question only time and he himself can answer. As far as my opinion is concerned, I guess he's not done too badly as many have indicated. It does take time for some players to gel with the team and in berbatov's case it may take a bit longer as we still don't have a totally fit squad. Once the chemistry within the team is set, we'll be by far the best attacking force in Europe. Now, coming to allegations that he doesn't track back like rooney or tevez. If I'm not wrong, he's been assigned the role of a target man. He's doing just that. An out-n-out striker will not track back evry time the team loses the ball. He'll stay in the attacking half to work on counter attacks. His inclusion into the team though will mean some star play will have to start from the bench. Thankfully we don't get to see too many ego clashes at old trafford and we now have back ups for every position on the field. United has a very good team. Its all down to getting the right results now.

Yes. I also thought they will play him as a target man. But looking back to several past games, I can see him track back until before the halfway line. So, my perception now is he's also like tevez and rooney type of player.

well.. i do believe Berbatov is very suitable for Manchester United.. hes an out and out striker which Manchester United were missing since ruud van nistelroy left .. yes i know that there is tevez and rooney but they are more of a supporting strikers ..so with Berbatov arrival Man United has in him an all out center forward .. :).. we all know his qualities as he .. played a big role in propelling totenttam to 2 consecutive 5th place finish before last season.. well.. Hargreaves might have to sit out but still hes gonna play an integral part as Manchester United will need all its players to defend their champions league and remier league crowns :)

Hi, I dont think Berbatov is suitable for manchester united, although i havent seen much of him. I watched the chelsea match, i arely saw him doing anything. He was just standing or very slow.Hope he improves for the rest of the season

berbatov is one of the talented strikers in EPL. i would rate hims in the top 5. his performance against chelsea was very disappointeing. it true that he finding very difficult to find his feet in mant utd team. it will take some time for him to get adjust in man utd. there will also be lot of preasure on him to prove himself to fans and club. so, we need to give him some more time. i hope he bounces back strongly......
