I Don't Have Respect For Sir Alex Ferguson Anymore: Berbatov
Berbatov,who just completed a move from Manchester United to Fulham, has made it clear that he no longer holds any respect for Man UTD Manager, Sir Alex Ferguson.
Somebody dey vez here!! Berbatov said he was very angry when he was left out on the bench during the Champions League Final in 2011.(I think i agree with you for this one).
“I don’t think I deserved such treatment at United – not playing (regularly) in the last year,” Berbatov said. “I went more than ten, probably 15 times to ask the coach if they needed me, and every time I was told that I’m an important player and should not leave, but then again I was not in the team.
“Maybe I should’ve gone when he (Ferguson) left me out of the squad for the Champions League final (in 2011). I know he’s the boss, but he has lost, to some extent, my respect because of the way he treated me.”
