It looks as though Berbatov is out of the fantasy reckoning this weekend. There are numerous reports indicating that the Bulgarian is not only out of United’s trip to Villa Park, he’s also set to be sidelined for 10 days which could see him miss three matches.

Berbatov picked up a thigh strain in Bulgaria’s 6-1 mauling at the hands of Serbia on Wednesday and while information on the injury was scarce from Old Trafford, Berbatov’s own agent revealed that club officials had ruled his player out for 7-10 days. That will put at risk of missing the Champions League game with Villarreal and possibly the clash with City on Sunday week…

Tevez now looks likely to start up front at Villa Park, with Rooney still a slight doubt having missed the England win over Germany with a chest infection and a calf injury. Ferguson still has some doubts over the availability of Ronaldo who will not return to the UK until later on today after his appearance for Portugal in Brazil. In many ways however, the injury to Berbatov has surely put pay to any thought of Ferguson resting him.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.
