Michael Carrick believes that Berbatov’s hat-trick for the club can be an alarm for other clubs and can lead him to be the contender for Goal of the Season. It was the day when not only Manchester United thrashed Blackburn but
also took the Red Devils to the first spot on the league. Both formation and support between the strikers and midfielders of United was clearly seen in the way they scored goals. The stadium was overwhelmed with joy when Nani scored a goal, thanks to some
brilliant pass exchange between Evra and Berbatov before finding Nani at the right spot at the right time. According to Carrick, Dimitar’s goal just after half time can surely be the Goal of the Season where he played some brilliant football and all of his
goals were of top quality.
The team was pleased to see Rooney playing his natural football and confusing the defense line with his brilliant support for the United’s strikers. According to United’s Captain, Vidic, both Rooney and Dimitar created problems
for the other team which led the team to an astonishing 7-1 victory, Berbatov scoring 5 times. Sir Alex Ferguson, in a post match interview commented on Berbatov saying that he was “one of the masterminds of the game”. Berbatov could have made it 6 for himself
but nevertheless such a victories do not come very often, said Carrick.
This can be a big blow to the people who were saying that Chelsea is invincible and can’t be beaten by any side, but such a performance means that Man U are no lightweights either. Playing both Chelsea and Arsenal next season,
Manchester United is taking keen interest in their player’s fitness both on and off the pitch. Rooney just came back from a really long wait on the bench and proved to be one of the finest strikers English football has ever produced.
He’ll be looking sharp and hungry for goals he was once famous for, and if the club continues to produce such a class victory, the Champions League title will not be far away. Carrick said “We set high standards and we want to
keep hitting those levels. [Against Blackburn] we did that, but we want to keep doing that every week. We know it's not always possible, but if we perform to near enough that level every week we won't be far away”. This clearly shows the mettle of the club
and their possible fortunes.
