After a series of turns and twists, Bulgarian striker Dimitar Berbatov has joined Manchester United from Tottenham Hotspur. Lots of dramas were staged around this high-profile transfer deal in Summer. Berbatov was one of the major targets for Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson all though the summer, but United found a number of bids rejected by Spurs during the transfer window, despite Dimitar Berbatov was eager to move to Old Trafford to participate in Champions League.

His ability to hold the ball, control the ball, cut inside or outside creating space, and most importantly excellent shooting target would help him make his presence felt at Manchester United. So, I see a good future for Dimitar Berbatov with Manchester United.
