Berbatov admits he's been won over by Man Utd midfielder Fernandes

Former Manchester United striker Dimitar Berbatov admits he's been won over by Bruno Fernandes.

Indeed, Berbatov says he'd have liked to have played with the new United midfielder.

He told Betfair: “I would have enjoyed playing in front of Fernandes because, for a striker, you are always willing to make runs when you know you have somebody in midfield who can find you with a pass.

"As well as his creativity, Fernandes has a good shot on him. The only aspect of his performance that he needs to work on is his aggression in the defensive part of the game but that should come as he gets more experience in the Premier League."

United are back in action on Sunday when they face Everton (2pm).
