Dimitar Berbatov was the star of the show scoring five times, twice before the half time. He joined the league of 3 other footballers who had their glory by scoring five goals in a single match. Last week where Berbatov didn’t even contribute in the win
over Wigan and everyone was eyeing over Rooney, he proved that he also played a pivotal part in the club. As fixtures with both Chelsea and Arsenal is getting nearer and nearer, Man U giving a significant boost to their goal difference to equal it with Chelsea.

thrice within three minutes of the restart. Berbatov can’t forget the first one as it completed his hat-trick with the help of Nani who completely outrun the Blackburn’s defence. Berbatov after getting his hat-trick tried to supply opportunities to other players

on Sunday.
"I've scored five in a match before, but it was a long time ago back home in Bulgaria. To do it in the Premier League is a great feeling especially when only a few players have done it. To stand alongside the likes of Shearer and Cole is a great honour.
” . Berbatov commented this after the match and clearly showing his concerns over the race for the title. Alex Ferguson and his red army is in perfect shape for the league and the upcoming round of 16 of Champions League, this surely would be an unforgettable
season.
As the day is getting nearer and nearer where Manchester United will face Arsenal in a truly nail biter, Sir Alex Ferguson might be foreseeing some real shift in the morale of the team and would want them to play as a unit, forgetting all the past bad experiences.
