Default time for berbatov to be "rested"

i think ive seen enough of him now no doubt there is a class player in there but how many more below average performances will it take for fergie to put him on the bench.
we are just about getting away with persisting with him atm but sooner or later if he doesnt improve he will cost us points.
for me tevez and rooney should be our two main strikers and berbatov should be a last half hour player (he might put a full shift in then) i just hope fergie sees sense and does this sooner rather than later.
building the team round berbatov may be a big mistake .

He gets enough rest when he's on the pitch IMO.

i think it was right to play him a lot at the start so he could acclimatise, get used to the team and the team to him etc. and he's played very well for us in a number of games. but he should be treated now the same as any player, with his place dependent on form and the opponents and what he brings to the team. i think he's only had one bad game for us (yesterday) but it's clear tevez is in form and deserves the place ahead of berbatov. pretty straightforward, really.

Berbatov is like Cantona. He has to believe he's the main man. It's all about confidence with him. I don't think Fergie will rest him. He never rested Eric.

To answer the question above, yes and I'd put it towards a bid for Benzema.

it's amazing to think that we have striker that's actually a luxury player.

only way he'll get rested is if he gets banned or injured.

i dont want rid of berbatov certainly wouldn't boo the player i just dont think he warrants a place in the side at the moment even the most blinkered of fans should be able to see that.
how he can be chosen ahead of tevez is madness there again maybe two minutes of fancy football per game is all that is required from a 30m plus player these days .
btw.
cantona got through a shitload of work as well as being blessed with fantastic skill

This Berbatov Cantona thing amuses me...........

they couldn't actually be further apart as players.....

Horst is right......Eric put in a lot of work for united.....Berbie never will...

he wears gloves FFS.
