Berbatov cuts it at international level

Manchester United striker Dimitar Berbatov has not left his days of shirking behind at Tottenham. The 27-year-old has taken to training on a lawnmower while on international duty with Bulgaria. Rumours that Sir Alex Ferguson has ordered all players on international duty to ensure they rest on a piece of machinery during training have not been confirmed.

Congratulations to The Sun for the “One Man U man went to mow” headline!

Thanks for clearing that up, Tony. I genuinely thought he was training on a lawnmower, but I now see the error of my ways…

What a lazy striker he is. Berba T has prove nothing to justify his huge money transfer 4rm Spurs to Man U

What do you want from him? To outrun 5 defenders, keep the ball and trash the goalkeeper? Be realistic.. he is trying hard and he is a true striker – finishing the attack with 1 single shot and scoring. Berbator 4ever
