The Fulham midfielder Steve Sidwell has said that the class of the former Manchester United striker Dimitar Berbatov has been extremely key to the revival of the club this season. Fulham have been one of the surprising packages of the season, but they would have struggled big-time without the presence of the Bulgarian striker Dimitar Berbatov up front. The 30-year-old joined the club in the summer for around £ 5 million from Manchester United, while it took a last-minute deal from the club to seal his signature ahead of the Italian club Fiorentina. He has been one of the signings of the season after scoring numbers goals and offering assists in the match as he has played so far.
Berbatov was once again at his best in the recent 3-3 draw for Fulham with Arsenal. He scored two goals and created the other in an extremely impressive display, which even draw the praise of the opposition manager Arsene Wenger. In total, Berbatov has scored five goals for Fulham in the Premier league this season. Fulham were extremely in need of goals following the loss of Clint Dempsey and Dembele in the transfer window. It has come in the form of the Bulgarian striker Dimitar Berbatov.
“After losing Clint, our top scorer last season, and Mousa, with the type of player he is, the fans thought ‘This is going to be a tough season’, and us players thought it too. But we brought in quality too. With Berba, people can see what he’s done already in games, and the class that he brings. He’s got that class, and he shows it day-in and day-out in training,” said Steve Sidwell. Sidwell has also said that he is enjoying the best time in his career after slowly recovering from the poor spells at Chelsea and Aston Villa.
