Dimitar Berbatov now has just 1 less league goal than Luis Suarez in 10-11, despite playing just 255 minutes to the Uruguayan's 1,454.

Fact.

Berbatov tends to score in bunches, I'm sure United fans would prefer them spread out and against bigger teams.

Though in Berby's defence he is given very little opportunity there days, glad he performed so well today.

21 - £0 Demba Ba has scored the same number of goals in 2011 as £110 million Torres, Suarez and Carroll combined.

Now compare his stats to Carroll.

Demba Ba is a freak of nature

Dont mean much. If Berba played more, there is no assurances he would score more and then his record would in turn not look as good as it does now.

Plus, goals dont mean much for either of those two. Berba best seasons have come at Spurs, in which he scored at a lower rate.

To sum up.....stats suck.

gold

Berbatop

To be fair to Suarez, he's hit the post tons of times this season and his team hasn't been as good as United have been in the PL.

Berbatov should be a starter, though. If not at MU , then somewhere else. Unless he's fine with his role, then whatever. Great player

Demba Ba is worth 110 million pounds

LOOOOOL @ the op stat and LOOOOL @ the Ba stat

berBAtov

Premier League: Home of goalless strikers

what I do find interesting is how PL defences are supposed to be so amazing yet people like Ba who scored 16 goals combined in his last 2 seasons in Germany is having a field day over here lool

The OP of this thread

No-one's actually ever said that tbf....

All I've heard is that PL defenses are on average better than Liga defenses, which makes sence.

Like saying Liga midfields are better than PL ones.

Anyways, Berbatov

Scorres assists

This thread

Hasn't Rooney in his like last 10 games or something only scored as much as berbatov in berbas last game?

roonay has been playing midfielder though

anyways scorres scored only two goals this season...as much as the average defender lol

I've admired Demba Ba since his Hoffenheim days. I'm glad that he's moved to PL to prove that he is prolific.

On topic, once Berba has scored what he may regard as enough, his lame habit will kick in and then he will be lazy. At his age he can't afford to go back to his old self.

Its startling that he doesnt play all that much at United.
He is a better player than Rooney anyday of the week.
Rooney goes through his usual 20 games of doing nothing every season and he doesnt get benched.
Whereas Berbatov doesnt perform a couple of games,he gets benched.

For my money,at his sublime best,Berbatov is the best player in the premiership.
How the hell he managed to generate so much power out of a toe poke,only he knows.Outrageous technique.
No other player in the world could have done it.Not even close.
