Yeah I'm not convinced that Berba is going to be out that long. He's had a knock since Inter and has managed.
I'm not pulling excuses out now. I've noticed it all season. Last season, Wes Brown gave alot of support off the wings which allowed Ronaldo a little more freedom down the line to get his shots in. Now with O'Shea on the right, the support just isn't there. Add to the fact that Ronaldo has become the biggest crybaby the numbers are down.
Alot of people are slating on Berba because he's lazy, but they are idiots. His style of play is just different than what United is used to. His ball control is superb, and he has enough goals and assists to justify his purchase. Don't think he's the next Cantona as some think to imagine.. but in the long run I think he's a better fit than a Tevez is.
Squad depth doesn't mean shit when half of them are injured and/or suspended
