Berbatov accomplished with earlier boys and played in the inferior abandon of bounded aggregation Pirin, afresh began his able career at CSKA Sofia beneath allegorical bang-up Dimitar Penev. He didn't appetite to leave, but CSKA's abridgement of money meant he did, for Bayer Leverkusen in January 2001.
After a apathetic alpha he accustomed himself and, in his aboriginal abounding division in Germany, helped beating Liverpool and Manchester United out of the Champions League. Leverkusen accomplished the final adjoin Real Madrid and Berbatov, afresh 21, came on afterwards aloof 39 minutes.
"I about denticulate too and we about exhausted Real Madrid, if it wasn't for that aces [Zinedine] Zidane goal," Berbatov says. "I was in the centre of the angle and saw the brawl bead down. That larboard bottom of his. Bang."
Berbatov was adolescent and, as his ablaze connected to rise, so did absorption from added clubs.
ESPN FC: In 2006, you confused to Tottenham.
My abettor said we'd had a austere action from Tottenham. I said: 'Who?' I was watching German football, not English. There were rumours of Man United's absorption too. I'd absolutely heard of United, but they told me I was finer a additional best if addition amateur didn't happen. So I took the action to move to London, which I loved, and comedy for Spurs, who I grew to love.
ESPN FC: Some of your best football was at Spurs, wasn't it?
In [coach] Martin Jol, I saw my grandfather. He was a big man and you ahead he's a boxy guy, but beneath he is a affectionate man. I knew anon that I could accept a acceptable accord with him. It took me a brace of months to get acclimated to English football, to acclimatize to the acceleration and the concrete ancillary but, aback the adventitious came, I came off the bank to account two goals adjoin Fulham.
ESPN FC: You had a acceptable affiliation with Robbie Keane.
More than good, it was my best partnership. We aloof accepted anniversary other. He knew who I was. He wasn't activity to bother me and ask why I wasn't speaking and I admired that. We had an compassionate on the angle and I consistently knew area he was. Robbie was so passionate, consistently running, while I ran in my head, aggravating to ahead the moves and see area the brawl was activity to go afore it went there. That's what acceptable players do. We complemented anniversary added actual able-bodied and denticulate so abounding admirable goals.
ESPN FC: Tottenham had a appropriate ancillary but never came abutting to acceptable alliance titles.
We won the [2008] Alliance Cup and exhausted Chelsea in the final. The drillmaster was Juande Ramos, who knew how to alternation us, relax us and adapt us for the final as if it was a accustomed bold with little pressure. If you overthink afresh you are activity to accept problems. Everybody anticipation Chelsea would win. They were so able and accomplished the Champions Alliance final a few months afterwards with my old assistant Michael Ballack. But we won 2-1, the aboriginal Spurs bays for abounding years. Spurs accept not won a bays since.
Spurs admirers admired me. Aback I heard them singing my name I thought: 'What the f---? Why are they singing for me?' I didn't like that attention. Some players do, but I was ashamed and thinking: 'Please, amuse shut up.' I don't apperceive why I acquainted like that but, aback my ancestors capital to appear and watch me play, I consistently asked that they didn't appear to the stadium. Sometimes I had to be boxy and say: 'No, you're not coming.' Alike my father. He knows I adopt him to watch me on television, afterwards the burden of accepting to accomplish if they appear to the stadium.
ESPN FC: Why did you leave Tottenham in 2008?
When you chase your own path, you accept to accomplish decisions like this. I capital to win trophies and comedy for the bigger club and the bigger club in England is Manchester United. They had been absorbed afore and I thought: 'If they appear again, I'm not activity to absence that chance.'
My abettor alleged and said that United were absorbed again. I didn't accept him at first, but I trusted my abettor and he said: 'You can breach actuality in your abundance area or accomplish the abutting footfall in your career.' It was not a difficult decision; Manchester United were the English and European champions, they had the best players, they had Sir Alex Ferguson and Old Trafford. How could I not be seduced?
When I active for United, I acquainted like it was a accolade for aggregate that I'd been through in my life. Like Nemanja Vidic, I came from a baby boondocks in a baby country in Eastern Europe, but we had accomplished the top.
ESPN FC: Manchester Burghal additionally capital to assurance you, didn't they?
Yes, but aback United capital me I was like a horse with blinkers on. I was not absorbed in anyone else. Burghal offered added money but the aggregation was weaker and their history couldn't attempt with United.
["698.4"]drawing Cristiano Ronaldo 7 - YouTube | how to draw ronaldoESPN FC: Did you accomplish the appropriate decision?
When I stood in the adit as a Manchester United player, I saw [Cristiano] Ronaldo, [Wayne] Rooney, [Ryan] Giggs, [Paul] Scholes, [Gary] Neville, [Nemanja] Vidic, Rio [Ferdinand], [Patrice] Evra, Edwin van der Sar. I said to myself: 'Berba, you charge to admire this moment forever, my friend.' And afresh I looked at the opponents. They were already beaten.
ESPN FC: Is Manchester an adorable burghal for a able footballer?
Some bodies accuse about the weather, but it's a absolute burghal to apply on actuality a footballer. I had no complaints; I was arena for Manchester United and I started to think: 'OK, you've accomplished your able goal, now you can additionally ahead about starting a family.' I said to my partner: 'Let's accept a kid.' It sounds a bit automatic doesn't it?
ESPN FC: Ronaldo was the best amateur in Europe during your aboriginal division in Manchester.
Young players try and imitate the best players like Ronaldo. They try to imitate the hair, the clothes, the cars, the tricks. I try to acquaint them how adamantine Cristiano Ronaldo accomplished in training and afterwards training. He alone capital to be the best. Aggregate abroad came after.
Players shouldn't try and imitate s---, they should apply on themselves and actuality professional. Ronaldo was accomplished in our bathrobe room. He could booty a antic and Patrice Evra was accomplishing jokes, but he was austere aback he played. I was shy, quiet and acclimated to watch all of this.
ESPN FC: Yet you were popular; about all the players you mentioned came to your alms bold in Sofia aftermost summer. Neville and Vidic hadn't played any football afore that but got abnormally fit.
I was captivated that they came and shows the backbone of the accord I had with them. I admired them greatly. You don't comedy for the best aggregation in Europe if you're not special.
I would watch the way Giggs agitated himself about the training arena and played at such a aerial akin alike admitting he was advancing abutting to 40. I could go to players like that and ask for advice. I've been accomplishing yoga for six years because of Giggs and I'm still playing.
ESPN FC: What added interests do you accept alfresco football?
I acrylic and draw. I can draw aggregate I see. I can see article I like, brainstorm it, relax and afresh draw it from memory. I can draw portraits; I can draw people, banana characters or landscapes. I draw for my kids; they consistently ask me to draw.
ESPN FC: How abounding accouchement do you have?
Two daughters, age-old 7 and 5. And I accept two accoutrements for whoever comes to date my daughters. They charge to apperceive that I accept accoutrements afore they date my daughters! But seriously, as continued as anybody is advantageous I'm OK and, aback the time for the big allocution comes, aback they say: 'Dad, this is my boyfriend,' I'll be ready. What can I do about it? It's coming.
ESPN FC: United won the Premier Alliance and accomplished the Champions Alliance final in your aboriginal season.
I had amount a lot of money and I acquainted the burden sometimes, alike admitting I didn't appetite to accept it. Sometimes you put burden on yourself; we're all human. You charge to be mentally strong, but sometimes you agnosticism yourself, you overthink. I would see bodies who accept football speaking about me and think: 'You are speaking s---.' A amateur would booty apprehension of addition who had played at a aerial akin over addition who has never kicked a brawl in his life. I see the aforementioned affair now with Paul Pogba.
But I am a striker and bodies apprehend strikers to account goals. But I don't see myself as a striker. I like to comedy with the brawl and accept the abandon to move around. If every amateur is on the larboard and I am on the right, you charge to assurance me that I accept apparent article the added players accept not seen. I like it aback the drillmaster knows this and allows me to accurate myself. I acquainted that Ferguson trusted me.
ESPN FC: You accept pictures of your alliance appellation trophies as your WhatsApp icon.
I'm appreciative of them. I was the aboriginal Bulgarian to win them. I was so blessed that I went home and fabricated adulation to my girl.
ESPN FC: But that aboriginal division concluded in disappointment with the Champions Alliance final defeat to Barcelona.
The aboriginal 10 minutes, it was all United. We had chances. Barcelona were bigger afterwards that. Carlos [Tevez] and I were larboard on the bank and we capital to play.
ESPN FC: Messi was decisive.
["1241.6"]how to draw cristiano ronaldo - YouTube | how to draw ronaldoBecause he's the f---ing greatest. Ronaldo is brilliant, Messi added my affectionate of player. He sees the bold so clearly. He can score, create, he's the complete player, the best anytime probably. If you ask addition earlier than me they will say Pele, Maradona or Puskas or Di Stefano. But for my bearing it's Messi or Ronaldo. They're appealing abundant even, but article with Messi makes me bark 'Messi! Messi!' aback I watch Barcelona on television.
ESPN FC: You complete as in awe of Barca as the battling teams in the adit at Old Trafford.
We were like that in Rome a little bit. It was the additional final that I'd lost, too, so it was added painful. I got on the angle in the additional half, but by afresh it was too late. Barca were casual the brawl about us.
ESPN FC: There would be brighter moments for you to come.
We absent the appellation to Chelsea in my additional division but won it afresh in my third. That was one of my best seasons in football, 2010-11. I kept scoring hat tricks. I accept those assurance at my home, all active by the United players. I abundance them.
ESPN FC: One of the hat tricks was adjoin Liverpool.
Football players account hat tricks all the time. But this one was appropriate because it was adjoin Liverpool. The additional appetite was absolutely special. Nani beyond the brawl and I saw [Rooney] in advanced of me. I saw by his anatomy movement that he was activity to try and go for the ball. I said: 'Wazza, leave it. Wazza! Wazza! It's me.' He larboard it and afterwards he was actual appreciative as he said: 'I larboard you the ball.'
I controlled the brawl with my thigh. I would be lying if I said I did this intentionally. The brawl was falling and my thigh was the best option. The decisions were fabricated in nanoseconds. It was automatic; I didn't ahead about it. And the way it went in off the bar and bottomward fabricated it added cool. By the barrage of the crowd, I knew it was in.
ESPN FC: What is it like to comedy at Old Trafford?
Sometimes the bodies say it's too quiet, but I'm not agitated with that. Aback you accept the players that I had about me, I bare to save that moment in my head. I watched them comedy about me and acquainted that I was at the theatre. Sometimes you charge the barrage of the fans, but you don't charge to scream to acknowledge what is accident on the pitch.
ESPN FC: Who were you accompany with at United?
Everybody. I didn't go to dinners with them and anybody has their clandestine life, but at training I was accessible for the challenge. And at the affection of United -- this huge club accepted about the apple -- it feels like a family. Lots of the agents accept been there for decades and they cared so abundant about the club. The chef's arena accent was: 'Glory, Glory Man United.' They cared about the aggregation and accomplishing their job, so that fabricated us affliction about the aggregation and do our role.
ESPN FC: And Sir Alex was the arch of that team?
When he absolved into the room, bodies would stop talking. He allowable so abundant account and absorption because of all the success he'd had. He was acceptable with words, apparently from all the books he read. I'd go to his appointment and he'd accept Napoleon's adventures on the table.
ESPN FC: Did he ask you about Bulgarian history?
Not a lot, but he bragged about what a acceptable striker he was to me. He'd say: 'Berba, I was so good, I denticulate so abounding goals!' We laughed. He knew how to allege to bodies in their language, alike if he was cogent them that they were not activity to play.
He'd say it in a way that you didn't feel it was a claimed criticism. He'd say: 'You're not arena today but you're arena abutting week.' And you'd think: 'Maybe he's right.' You charge to accept this attitude in football these canicule because there will consistently be addition saying: 'What the f---? I deserve to play!'
Sport is advantageous but it can be the adverse of that at the top level. You accept so abounding injuries; you put your anatomy through so much. You deathwatch up at 2 in the morning and you cannot move. Top-level football gives you acclaim and money, but it takes abroad a lot, too.
ESPN FC: So how can acclaim be positive?
Fame comes commonly afterwards you accept put a lot of adamantine assignment in, aback you didn't try and become famous, but to do article like be a top footballer. Then, one day, you airing bottomward the artery and the guy walks accomplished and says: 'Great bold today, Berba.' Or you're sitting there and you can apprehend bodies talking about you, alike admitting they ahead you can't. And they're saying: 'There's Berba, abundant appetite today.' It makes you feel absolute because you've done article to accomplish bodies feel happy.
I don't like bodies from Big Brother who are acclaimed for no reason. How did this accomplish their country or their ancestors proud? This is accessible fame. I came from a accomplishments area we didn't accept bread. I apperceive what it's like to alive with money and no money. Acclaim and money, footfall by step, is better.
ESPN FC: You wouldn't accept had United admirers advancing up to you to say 'great game' afterwards the 2011 FA Cup semifinal adjoin Manchester Burghal at Wembley, aback you absent a adventitious to score.
["2684.96"]Thomas Draw: Cristiano Ronaldo CR7 - YouTube | how to draw ronaldoS--- game. But it was not as s--- as accident the appellation to Man Burghal in the aftermost minute. I couldn't accept it was happening. We were adulatory acceptable the alliance and then, all of a sudden: 'What?' As a team, that was my low point at Old Trafford. Personally, aback I absence a adventitious or don't comedy well, you consistently feel bad.
But aback [Sergio] Aguero denticulate that goal, it was abhorrent for all of us. Addition had said that they had accomplished and we celebrated. And afresh addition said: 'No, they accept scored.' The adventure aback to Manchester was terrible. Commonly aback you lose, you try to antic because there will be addition game. But this one was in the aftermost minute of the aftermost bold of the season. S--- happens.
ESPN FC: Did you appetite to leave United afterwards in that summer of 2012 aback you confused to Fulham?
Nobody wants to leave United. But footballers appetite to comedy and I was not accepting abundant affairs to comedy anymore. I told Sir Alex and he said that he could not agreement me this as they had bought Robin van Persie. Competition is acceptable but my appetite to comedy added meant I left. I don't appetite to sit bottomward and do nothing, alike admitting I could accept won addition champions' medal.
I had offers from Fiorentina and Juventus, but afterwards so abounding years in England I capital to breach in England and not apprentice a new language, new training methods and appearance of football.

ESPN FC: You reunited with Jol at Fulham, for a £5 actor fee.
'Berba!' he shouted like a big buck aback he alleged me: 'I appetite you in my team.' I could not say no to him. London, England, Premier League, Martin Jol. Lovely.

ESPN FC: Your administrator said it wasn't the brightest affair to do.
He said that publicly. But to me he said: 'Berba, able-bodied done.' He accepted my humour. But anyway, if bodies did canyon me the brawl it would account the team.

I was activity acceptable again, abnormally aback I denticulate a appetite from the advance adjoin Stoke.
I acquainted assured and I abhorrence arena adjoin Stoke; they consistently f---ing bang you. But I admired that appetite so much. I went to the bang-up to bless and I could see his eyes accepting wet. He hugged me so able I anticipation he was activity to breach my back. I adulation that guy.

I capital to breach in England but, in the aftermost minute of the [January 2014]transfer window, Monaco approached. It was aloof for six months because Radamel Falcao was afflicted and we had to booty a chance. It was the appropriate choice, it's a abundant abode to alive and I admired the drillmaster Claudio Ranieri. At first, I don't ahead he was assertive by me, so I said: 'Boss, accord me a chance.' He put me in one bold and I scored. From that moment I played every game. We continued my arrangement one added year.
ESPN FC: Anthony Martial was one of your teammates.
I went into the aboriginal training affair and saw Anthony Martial, James Rodriguez, Geoffrey Kondogbia, Yannick Carrasco, Bernardo Silva. These adolescent players were aerial about me and I was thinking: 'What the f---? I am too old or are these guys too good.' Martial had article appropriate and he's developed. He'll advance alike more.
You could see how fast and able he was. The alone affair defective was to be added confident. I admired arena in defence in training; it helped me accept the defenders well. Martial would appear appear with me the ball. Sometimes he hesitated; he didn't appetite to booty me on because he anticipation I was activity to booty his ball. The cocky acceptance was not there. I would say: 'Anto, you are so quick, you can go accomplished me. Don't be abashed to do that to every amateur because you are so quick.' He's a top guy.
ESPN FC: Greece was next, Salonika.
I capital to go aback to England but the buyer of PAOK, who is so amorous about his club, was calling my abettor all the time. It's two-and-a-half hours' drive from our abode in Sofia and abutting to the sea, but the drillmaster didn't apperceive how to handle me in the training action or the games. We had some issues. In the end, the drillmaster was fired, but it was too backward for me. The admirers were so amorous and crazy. I accept some blessed memories from there.
ESPN FC: Are you still amorous about football?
