Resign Berbatov, Manchester United and Tottenham legend spoke to Betfair of one of the most shocking images of the season. The player of his former team, Eric Dier, jumped into the stands to defend a relative and, supposedly, try to attack some fans who had insulted his relatives. For Berbatov the scene, which may have a historical sanction, is understandable: “The players are also human. Dier does not react like this if everything is calm“points.
The Bulgarian highlights the tension that players have to endure on the pitch. “It's very easy to say: 'Fuck, I could do better', but believe me it's not easy. I respect what he did because if it was me, he would probably do the same, although we have to avoid things like this because people can take advantage of your emotions, “says the Betfair ambassador.
Berbatov is clear that “if someone goes to your family you have to protect them but it shouldn't happen. People should control their emotions with the players and especially with their families.“The English federation now investigates the facts and will make a decision in the next few days.
“Mourinho gets older “
As for the situation of Tottenham, who experienced a new defeat in Premier, Berbatov sees no danger in the future of José Mourinho. “Mourinho is already being questioned but in my opinion you have to be with him. The club has not signed him but believes he can reverse the situation“The Bulgarian also emphasizes that age now influences the forms of Mourinho:” It reminds me of the last stage of Ferguson that I lived, is calmer in the field, we all grow older and change, is where Mourinho is now“.
“I wouldn't be surprised if they soon pay 200 million euros for Haaland”
Berbatov, who was one of the best strikers of the 2000s Premier, highlights the future of fashion player Erling Haaland. “It has the potential to fill the gap left by Ronaldo and Messi. It is fair to say that may be the successor of Messi and Cristiano, not only him, also Mbappé“says the Betfair ambassador.
Regarding the future of the Dortmund forward, Berbatov is clear that he should not leave Germany right now. “He is in the right place and is improving, marking and giving passes. Would you do the same in Madrid or United? It is where it has to be. It would be a mistake to leave. You have to let him play although it is also true that I would not be surprised if they soon pay 200 million for it and sell it, “he says.
