Just how good is Dimitar Berbatov's first touch? We decided to put it to the test. == We will be putting more players to the test! Do remember to subscribe to Shoot for Love and turn notifications on so you never miss a video!
Such a wise and unique player! You can see his mentality has had a tremendous impact on his career! He truly understands what it is to be a good professional and a good human being at the same time. I couldn't be prouder to call myself Bulgarian after watching this video. Thank you Shoot for love for featuring Dimitar! Wish you all the best!
@@KitchenerLeslie2 that's one way to remember him I guess haha. Berbatov used to play for Tottenham, Bayer Leverkusen and Manchester United to name a few. He is widely regarded as one of the players with the greatest ball control in the game of football. He often takes part in charity games of the Manchester United legends and recently scored an absolute screamer against the legends of Liverpool.
@@KitchenerLeslie2 As an average American, I don't think you have the competence to comment anything about football (soccer for you). Maybe if it was baseball or something about food. But to catch a ball moving 60+ MPH with that precision is not an easy task. Keep in mind, he is retired from years and yet again it took him few tries, considering the angles. So yea, we can talk about burgers if you want? As an average European I can assure you that everyone knows you with your obesity and dumbness 😂🤷🏻♂️
@@user-xu2ie9iw2q Saudi is not top flight though, the top clubs are state owned and only they got the money to buy some famous players, it's hard to even call it a competition when the clubs fighting for the title are all owned by the same people
@marksmith1329 Right so he can walk into any team now he's retired but when he was at ManUtd no big team wanted him ManUtd couldn't sell him even Spurs didn't want him anymore had bought a better team with the Berbatov funds. Eventually got rid of him to Fulham who have trophyless history, for 10% of what ManUtd paid for him, best deal they could get once he was regrettably bought.
some people said he was lazy on the pitch not have passion. but no. he was just smart enough to know when is needed to run and when is better to save his energy dor better situation later.
I grew up watching these legends like CR7, Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes, Wayne Rooney, Luis Nani etc. and of course Berba played for Man Utd. As a Man Utd fan he was one of my favourite players in the team. I'm so glad to watch them together, if there was no Barcelona in 2009 & 2011, Man Utd probably would've won the both finals. Anyways it was so good see Berba again, thanks for everything guys.
We see Berbatov has still got it. I would say he was one of the finest players during his active days in the Premier League. Great first touch, ability to give the final pass and an unbelievable goal instinct. 2010/2011 was his best season being the joint top goalscorer in the league, three of those 20 goals he netted against Liverpool for the final 3:2 at Old Trafford on Sep 19th 2022. @Shoot for Love Thank you for this video!
Dimitar Berbatov’s calmness under pressure and ability to pull a moment of magic out of nowhere was an absolute joy to watch when he was in a United shirt. Honestly my favourite United player growing up
Hello! You are one of the two winners of the raffle :) would you mind sending an email to event@bekind.co.kr ? After a brief verification, we will ship you the jersey 😀
Loved Berba! Him signing for United back in the day was so mad, he was on his way to sign for City on deadline day and Sir Alex kidnapped him then brought him to Old Trafford to sign the contract. That hattrick against Liverpool will always be my favourite moment of his for United, what a player!
Berba is godlike in ball stopping and control. His mentality and attitude are totally Man Utd and we are eternally grateful for everything that he had and has done for Man Utd. The classiest footballer we are lucky enough to witness.
Berbatov is different from the other football players. The synergy between the intelligence with which he plays, the hard work he puts in, his fighting nature and his talent make him extraordinary. To this day, there is no other football player like him!
What a player! Absolutely loved watching him as a Man Utd fan. My first Man Utd jersey had his name on the back. I still have it and love it. Thanks for the good times, Berba!

I started watching football through man united since 2005. There were many high-quality players that days in man united, but I cannot forget the impression I felt from berba's touch and his elegant play when I was a child. That was absolutely his only thing. Especially, the artistic turn against west ham in the 08-09 season and the overhead kick against liverpool in the 10-11 season are still unbelievable. I remember him as a player who made us happy to watch football. I'm happy to see his touch again through the video. Thanks for everything he showed us and thanks for letting me see his touch again!
Wonderful to see Berbatov in a United jersey. So humble considering how big his achievements have been. I was once visiting Bulgaria and happened to wear my United jersey at a fast food place and the guy goes - " We love United because of Berbatov" ...I hadn't quite thought of it from that perspective!
As a Bulgarian fan of Man UTD, I remember the day when he signed with the club, so you can't imagine my excitement seeing him as a Red Devil as I loved him even before that. Митко, благодаря за всички футболни моменти! Имаш подкрепата на всички българия и в новите начинания
Berba is a legend for all Bulgarians. Remember watching his games with my family and then the next day during high school practices trying out the same skills. Only regret is not seeing him in person. Great vid!
Брилянтен футболен мозък! Визия за играта, нинджа контрол над топката, безупречен във всяко едно отношение и истински шампион! Жалко, че както много знаменити български личности, запечатани в аналите на футболната история навънка повече ги ценят и си спомнят за тях, отколкото нашият вековно маризан тесногръд народ!
What a player he was. I grew up with him and being a Bulgarian I was watching every singe match that he played in. National team, CSKA, Bayern Leverkusen, Tottenham, Man U, Fulham, Monaco.. if I ever missed a game I would wait for the news or go online to check if he had scored a goal. Good times. And that first touch.. unmatched. Great challenge here guys, keep it up!
The art of Dimitar Berbatov and his personality all on show here. What a legend of the game and a United legend. One of my favourite players of all time! Coolness personified 🤙

He is just pure master of touch! Maybe i doesn't watched his prime time, but thanks my dad and brother i have been learned a lot from them for him. When i was able to use smartphone, i was searching at RU-vid Dimitar Berbatov Skills and Goals. For me he is a hero of the golden times from football and Bulgaria. Like he said balance the hard working and smart working. Absolutely Legend Idol man. I appreciate it guys to that you have been made a video with Berbatov. It's something way bigger thing for Bulgaria and they all are glad for him. Even i'm not bulgarian, but have been lived in Bulgaria i know how many talented guys and peoples are there. Tell me pls just who doesn't wants to be a player like Berbatov. Even when i'm trying to do the Berba spin, i'm thinking about his touches and skills. Love you Idol, proud of Bulgaria!!!
This guy is special. For me his is among great players like rooney, keano ,scholes ,jaap stam,evra, van persie, becks. His technique, skilled n goals is just incredible. The way he moves with the ball on the pitch. he is a natural talent and always loved and enjoyed watching him play. He is an artist
I’m probably one of the only fans I’ve ever met in the states whose favorite soccer player was Dimitar Berbatov. At school even people called me “Berbatov”. And I went to a school in South Central LA. I remember being so happy my mom was finally gonna buy me a LONG SLEEVE Berbatov jersey that I still have today. It was the 2010-11 Season Jersey. Which means even more to me because it was the year he won the golden boot and put 3 behind Liverpool. I will never understand how Berbatov was benched for the 2011 final against Barca in the CL. But I know it’s something that Fergie has gone on record to say he made a mistake. And he did. I own his book with his signature on it which I value a lot. I remember being so sad the day he was taken off fifa. It was in fifa 18 he was no longer available in career mode. If you ask anyone who knows me. They’ll know who my favorite soccer player in history is. And it’s the Bulgarian Dimitar Berbatov. 🔥
It was a real pleasure for me to watch every game and emotions that I haven't experienced since his time at United. The team's performance with him in the lineup was different, he was the class, he was also a pride for us.
Haha wow what a video. This is so cool. Awesome you got a legend like Berbatov in this, such a great player. As an Arsenal fan that idolised Dennis Bergkamp I always felt that Berba was the nearest I ever saw with the touch and grace on the football pitch. Capable of magic on a football pitch. Not easy to say given he played for Spurs and United but a wonderful player. Some serious life lessons in there too about challenging yourself and not giving up; even when the ball was hitting into him and smacked him in the nuts there wasn't a chance he was going to quit, there was no doubt he was going to control that ball and complete the challenge. Elite mindset. Great video!
I really love his message at the end! It’s really good advice for kids, I sure would’ve loved to hear it when I was younger. I always was trying to be like Ronaldinho and later Sneijder but that’s totally not my style. I’m not a 5 star skill king with and an amazing dribbler or a accurate passer/shooter/freekicker. I wasted a lot of time with it. I was all about speed and passing the defenders at high speed. When I truly found out that was what made me good and I got there eventually being noticed by VVV Venlo and NEC Nijmegen here in the Netherlands. But like all fairytales mine came to an end as well when the doctors told me I had fluid in both my knees and had weak knie joints, it would be irresponsible to play any longer and had to quit football entirely. So even if I would’ve been at a pro club from young age, I never would’ve made it to the real deal. Happy they found out though, without it I would’ve kept going even if it was on amateur level and ended up with totally worthless knees and not even been able to play with my own kids.
Thank you Guys for making this video!! Berba is definitely Top level equal with Greats on His Touch & Goals !! I'm glad he Played for Manchester United 🎉🎉
Berba's amazing touch! No other player with such elegance, style and smartness in the game! Thank you for all the entertainment for us the viewers, especially in Manchester United, and that amazing pass to Ronaldo, for the victory over Liverpool 3-2 with all you goals! 👏
Isn’t he amazing? He is legend. He is really brave to do this. Apparently it’s not easy. Go on Berbatov. We are so brave, strong and with good hearts people. ❤ 🇧🇬
I’m a proud Bulgarian because of him! Even as an LFC fan ( you know why hahah) I still love him and appreciate him. He’s amazing and probably one of the little beasts has Bulgarian football produced. Wish more footballers come as him one day. ❤
Genio total Bebatov no lo conocia de esta manera, la verdad paso a estar entre los mejores para mi, desde sudamerica Uruguay. un saludo y felicitaciones por el video @Shoot for Love
Humble one,always class at first touch,wise for his age and mentally strong.He brought so much joy and passion to all the football community,likable person and underestimated for no reason.How not to like that guy!?!It is always a pleasure watching DB even after his football career!
Great content! Interesting (and funny) video! Dimitar was a great and a big player. And in this video we learned that he is a very good, smart, polite and funny persona. Thumb up for Berba and for you guys 👍🏻
That was so much fun! Thanks for inviting him and showing everyone what ball control is all about. I hope to see him again on the show showing his ball control skills! Edit: Oh, and Jamm screaming in the background during the 80km/h test? 😂
Fantastic player, back from when Manchester was still scary. unfortunately young generations may not know him because it's hard to win trophies with Bulgaria, but he really had a great technique and this is what people want to see, not Lukaku first touch
Berbatov is truly one of the most incredible football players that i used to watch. Im from Bulgaria and i watched his tallent since he played for the national team too. I grew up watching Man. United and when he came at the team was double enjoyment for me. He make the game art. Genius ! 👏 🇧🇬
Wow what a man, never mind a player. Mr Berbatov spoke and showed throughout the style grace and commitment he showed as a player. One of the cleverest players on the pitch ive ever seen live. A skill set clearly honed to a perceived level of perfection through hard work, To a level set only by himself and most likely a level Mr Berbatov knew was never achievable as our beautiful game knows no limits. LEGEND... Simon. COYS.
Dimitar Berbatov is my favourite footballer since I was child. He is unbeliveable player with unbeliveable vision, touch and finishing. Absolute legend for Bulgaria and all the world! 🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬 As a bulgarian I hope our country produce again a player like him.
Bulgarian lion! I remember when he signed for Manchester United, I waited for the weekends to be able to enjoy him playing for my favorite team. One of the greatest in this game.
For me, THE BEST BULGARIAN FOOTBALLER, and one of the best strikers of ALL TIME. I'm a massive fan of Berbatov and I'm thankful that I grew up watching him!
I never supported any of the teams who Berbatov played for but damn if I did not love that player. What a player. What a touch. They don't make 'em like they used to.
Simply the GOAT- best of all touches! Love him, such an amazing player and a handsome man! That was a great challenge and fun fact is that he passed it with a broken finger oh his left foot…
I loved this guy at Spurs, he had to go onto better things and fortunately I grew up appreciating Man United with Rooney as my icon so was okay with the move. It broke my heart seeing him leave, if he was in Tottenham gear for this and I’d have melted 😂 Still nice to hear him speak so positively about us though when he does, incredible player!
