Paddy Crerand cannot wait to see Dimitar Berbatov for the first time in a Manchester United shirt at Liverpool on September 13.Crerand wrote in his blog for the official club website: "You wouldn't believe how delighted I am about our new signing. Like many supporters, I thought the one player we needed was another striker. For me, we got the best buy in the transfer window."
He added: "I've watched Berbatov during the last two years at Tottenham and before that when he played for Bayer Leverkusen against us. He was a smashing player then at Leverkusen but we didn't take a great deal of notice because we only saw him a couple of times. But with Tottenham he's been fantastic.
"I laugh at the people who say he looks a bit lazy. He looks lazy because his control's so perfect. He's a great, great addition to this club honestly.
"His two years' experience in England makes him an even greater asset.
"He must be a dream to play with, for his imagination, skill, intelligence...football's a very intelligent game, despite what some people might say."
Crerand said: "I just can't wait to go to Liverpool now and see that first game with Berbatov in the squad. I hope I'm not jinxing it but I can't wait to see him playing at Anfield with all the great players he's going to have around him."
