A win is a win – Berba

Dimitar Berbatov has praised his teammates for digging deep against Blackburn on Saturday as Manchester United grinded out a 2-0 win at Old Trafford. The Red Devils spurned numerous chances to put the game beyond doubt before Wayne Rooney and Berbatov popped up to score to secure the points. "One-nil is good as well as long as you get the three points. Two-nil, four-nil, it doesn't matter — as long as we keep on winning I think everyone will be happy," said the Bulgarian after another unimpressive performance by the reigning EPL champions. "In the first half, I had a couple of chances to score — you need to be patient and when another chance comes, you need to score it." Berbatov has now scored three league goals this season, while Rooney has netted six times. The win keeps United in second place two points behind Chelsea.
