If Defour could have played as often as Berge, I’d have to agree he was better. BUT, he was injured as often as he played- so, Berge all day long for me.
If Berge is better than Defour, I will be expecting a top corner banger at Old Trafford this weekend :D

Re: Rovers Forum

Two games left are against Coventry & Leicester Cov have nothing to play for, but hopefully not deflated after yesterday and Leicester will be going for the title Coventry are 9 points behind with 2 games in hand. Win them and it's 3 behind with 2 games left. I wouldn't call it nothing to play for.

Re: Vote for your man of the match against Sheffield United

Feels strange picking a keeper as mom when you win 4-1 away from home, but Muric was superb.

Berge was good knocking it about, but I don't think he had much input in to get goals did he?
Plus the midfield didn't protect the defence much with double figure shots on target against.
