As much as I hate him now...

I feel like that sometimes.

I can't watch the video because sometimes my annoying computer won't load up youtube but I'm assuming this is about Berbadroops hat trick.

Well he wasn't playing well when it really mattered in this group, I can assure you. And 90% of the time in the last two years he's been a lazy no show, which has significantly effected how good he is from world class in year one at spurs to middle of the spectrum in the top class category since then. Against Ireland he was really poor. In some of the other matches he was pillaried by the Bulgarian fans and they blamed his laziness to the point that they said he was cancer and the main reason they were doing badly.

It's questionable whether he's much better than Peter Crouch now to be honest. I'd have Keane and Tevez every day til Sunday over him.

I think our partnerships right now with Keane in them are just as good as Keane and Berbatov in year two so I'm not in the least bit peturbed. He's a stroppy, lazy prick and we robbed united blind.

He's lost a yard of pace too and he smokes like a train. He'll continue to go downhill fast imo. He's becoming a more talented version of Kanu.

He will still have his moments though, he's extremely talented.

when he is good he is very, very good.
when his is bad he is a wank3r!

We all miss the Ginola silky touch...

A sublime player that year with Keane but selling him, especially at that price was the right move. The stupidity was selling him so late and not having a replacement lined up. Hell, even selling Keane turned out all right, not bad to be paid 10 million for a 6 month loan.

Berbatov was a hell of a player, still can be, and I don't think he's as lazy as people think, it just seems to me he makes things look easy, so it looks like he's not trying.

I'd agree with you if we are talking about year one at spurs, which I fervently stated at the time when some people called him lazy, but since then I think he really has been desperately lazy and lethargic, not taking up good positions and not being switched on with making sure he holds the ball up well.

He still had good stats in the second year but that just tells you that stats don't always tell the full story because his general play dipped considerably. He was still gifted and effortlessly better than most at general play but it was only when he felt like it and that is never acceptable to me.

Guys with talent, less talent, but still very talented like Tevez and Keane and who also have the right attitude were definitely better in recent years if you ask me (when they weren't being messed about that is).
