    Available-apparently. Pricey-yes but surely affordable. Classy-undoubtably. Goalscorer-big time. Infuriating-for sure. For us-what do you think.

    Absolutely class, WHEN HE WANTS TO BE, as you say infuriating. If mentally he decided to put the effort in every game then definately

    Think wages would be a stumbling block. He is probably on pretty good money at Manchu. He is also a lazy beggar sometimes

    Yes, but there is literally no chance in the deepest darkest depths of hell that we'll sign him.

    Absolutely not for me.

    Not a player that would either settle or perform for a club like ours. If the filth want him Ihope they get him and that wll servethem right.

    Over paid, over rated, he is one Man Utd ex-player I definately dont want.

    Imagine him and Steed in the same team. No chance of him coming to us, but I love Berba, me.

    Would never come to us in a million years and would bust the pay structure, those realities apart would love to see him at SOL, some of his skills are worth the entry fee

    People are saying 'no' to Berba?

    Mind boggling. Even at his laziest he would improve us, a magnificent player.

    More chance me bying a plot of land on the moon, in the next 4 seconds.

    Berbatov would come to the SOL and feel 'cheated' as a player mate. He has a top 4, top European club mentality and SAFC cant offer him anything he doesnt already have.

    We can't even give him Europa Cup football but if we could, then maybe he would be interested. Its why I have always said we missed the boat last season. A finish in Europe and we could have moved onto these targets. Right now, we have to target players that can GET us there in the first place.

    Berbatov would be a huge disaster at SAFC but a huge success at Arsenal, Chelsea or one of the top 5 or 6 clubs in Europe.

    Couldn't agree more - a luxury player but one that would get our fans' backs up in no time at all !

    If many of us found Kenwynne Jones lazy what would the crowd make of Berbatov ??!!

    Although I feel he would add undoubted quality, we're dreaming even thinking about signing him. He's on 100k+ a week for starters and we haggling with N'Zogbia over 65k per week, so on a financial basis alone it ain't happening. Secondly he could go to many a fancy place around Europe I'm sure, perhaps Milan, Seville, Madrid or Paris, as well as bigger clubs than us in the prem. Thirdly he was man u's top scorer last season, so its not like he had a complete mare and no-one else would take him. Saying that if he signs for some two bob club like Blackburn I will be upset we didn't give it a crack.
