IF this Berba thing is true (and I'm not for one moment suggesting it's true) I genuinely just saw this on the FB Glory-Glory feed...
But Berba was the type of player who, when I'm old, grey and senile, I will tell my Grandchildren I actually saw
play... he's one of
those types of player... Along with Hoddle, Gazza, Ginola & Klinsmann...
EDIT: and
Bale (thanks
Fattynomates
for the timely reminder!) ...oh, and Dozzell, Doherty and Rasiak!!!
He was abundantly blessed with skill (albeit a sulky attitude) but, like Gazza's 'antics' and Hoddle's 'religious nonsense' you kinda have to forget that to truly enjoy and marvel at the quality of player before you.
Loved the guy... was bitterly disappointed the way he left, but let's face it, the Tottenham he left
then for Man Utd, weren't the same Tottenham he'd be training with at Hotspur way today! (and likewise, the Man Utd he left us for, are barely recognisable from the mish-mash that Mourinho is grumpily having to sort out now!
