What did Carrick ever do to even be considered as a legend???
Bad example to use mate

That doesn't say he didn't do anything.

:clap::clap::clap: Well Said Sir !If Berba leaves at the end of the season we'll be spared five dumb threads a week speculating on whether he'll stay or go. There's something to be said for that trade-off.
when klinsmann was here there were some decent players around but the team was going nowhere defensively speaking therefore it was ok that he left and could still be regarded as a legend as we didn't reallly blame him. but these days we are in a position to kick on from here, heck we would even be further ahead had levy bought the right players and not undermined bmj therefore i for one would be feel very let down by berbatov if he did not see out 2 more years at the very least. with berbatov on board we can realistically aim to qualify for the CL, maybe even become involved in a title race if we get a good start.
I think this is about right. Klinsmann became a legend just by coming to the club in a lot of people's eyes. It was so out of leftfield. This has enabled us to gloss over the fact that he used us to get back in the Germany side and did a runner the first time any top team showed an interest again. Would this have been the case if he hadn't come back to help us avoid relegation? I don't know.
Berbatov didn't have that caché when he came and so, rightly or wrongly, has to do more to earn the status. For me, if he leaves this summer, he'll be like Carrick - good player for us, but not a legend. If he signs a new contract, now you're talkin
