Finding a player who regularly changes the course of a game is tough, look at Liverpool without Gerrard or Torres, Arsenal without Fabregas or Van Persie, Man U without Rooney or Vidic and Chelsea without Drogba or Lampard.
Personally i think it`s the bulgarian mentality because Petrov is pretty much of the same mould, whereas players from Croatia/Serbia, etc, seem to be able to concentrate that bit more!
Wonder how much you`ll you`ll get for him
p.s. He`s just ballooned another one at the end of the first half.........the look on Rooneys face was classic

I'm just going to put this stat out there, it isn't me defending Berbatov but he's scored more league goals this season than Anelka and Bendtner, the other sides in the top 3 "second strikers".
