Manchester United stiker Dimitar Berbatov expects to leavethe club after being frozen out The 31-year-old has had limited first-team opportunities over the last couple of seasons, and claims manager Sir Alex Ferguson did not make good on promises to give him more chances. "We talked 10 times, he told me there would be a place for me but I stayed on the bench," Berbatov said. My time at Manchester United is running out. I no longer feel like a valuable part of this team. I think I did well in the few opportunities that I received. I am a little frustrated by the way this happened, I do not think I deserved it. But I have dignity and I stopped going to such meetings, it is clear that I'm leaving United. It's obvious that I have to leave. I'm looking for a new place now. I know I can still play at the highest level.
