"Rooney, though not in its best form, shows the desire and the movement required by the modern striker. Berbatov does not. His season so far and his career at Old Trafford, never goes smoothly and in one direction, "writes Smith, and then concludes:
Manchester United and Berbatov were major question in this championship. Now teams and players are leaders, but the question is how long this feeling. "
Guardian is also parsimonious in his praise to the Bulgarians. "We saw tough Berbatov predator. But this is a definition that too often we can use for him since he came to Old Trafford more than two seasons," the analysis Andy Hunter Edition.
According to him, weak protection of Blackburn has a not insignificant contribution to the achievement of the Bulgarians. With five goals, he became one of Andy Cole, Alan Shearer and Jermain Defoe, who noted in only five goals in one match in the Premier League.
"In tandem with Rooney, nine of the Reds' slow and scattered disordered protection Blackburn.This happened with passing and movement which he demonstrated in his worst games. But here his efforts were crowned by the thought and composure in front goals that it came to the legends in the Premiership, "added Hunter.

Manager opponent Sam Allardyce also praised Bulgarians. He compared it with the Chelsea star Nicolas Anelka.
"At one time everyone thought that Anelka is not distributed in the games. Looking at him, all saying it is unlucky. Frankly, I thought so before you meet him. With Berbatov is the same.
Just such is the style of the boy and everything depends on the perceptions of others. But all should understand that he is an intelligent player that instantly finds spaces, losing the ball hard and is actually much faster than it looks, "said Allardyce.
The U.S. also appreciate the talent of the Bulgarians. Prestigious New York Times wrote an introductory essay against Blackburn, a writer Rob Hughes is far from saving superlatives as they do in England.
He scored five goals and swear that most of the game trying to help Rooney to score. Berba is a top-class striker who had Manchester United Eric Cantona from now. The Frenchman was more fun, more colorful, but there's definitely a connection between the two, wrote in his article, Rob Hughes.
