It’s United’s title, insists Berbatov
Date published: 15 March 2010
Dimitar Berbatov expects Manchester United to complete an unprecedented championship quartet this season.
The Bulgarian wrapped up a 3–0 win for the Red Devils over Fulham yesterday, following two more goals from Wayne Rooney that took his tally to 32.
It took United two points clear of Chelsea and Arsenal in what is turning into a fascinating title race.
But Berbatov is confident the prize will end up at Old Trafford.
United will feel they have a good chance as long as Rooney stays fit.
It took him just 29 seconds of the second–half to break the deadlock and it was Rooney’s goal seven minutes from time that settled home nerves after the Red Devils had spurned a succession of chances.
The 24–year–old is now just 10 goals adrift of the mammoth number Cristiano Ronaldo scored two seasons ago, although Rooney would prefer to avoid the comparison.
