Berbatov Wants To Lead United To Title

Dimitar Berbatov has revealed that he wants to remain the top striker at Manchester United and help his side take the Premier League title.

Berbatov has looked like a different player in front of goal this season and has already netted fourteen goals, making him top striker along with Carlos Tevez.

United are currently top of the Premier League - on forty five points with local rivals Manchester City.

Speaking to MUTV the striker said: "I hope I can stay on top until the end of the season.

"Obviously the goals I score help the team to win points, which is the most important thing.

"For now everything is going according to plan but there are other players doing well not just Carlos Tevez.

"It is a good competition but when you are at the top, you always look back to see who is coming behind you."

Despite Berbatov consistently finding the back of the net in the absence of Wayne Rooney the side had to settle for a 0-0 draw at the weekend with Tottenham Hotspur.

On Saturday they will be hoping to extend their lead at the top when they face Birmingham at Old Trafford.
