Berba talks a lot of sense, tbh. Wazza is a player determined to fight for his place, his club and his teammates. He is a player who will play out of position for the greater cause and is not someone who is out for his own good.
I agree that Ronny was a superb talent and won everything he could in the English game, but was not in it for the long haul, whereas Wazza has stated he wants to finish his career at OT.
They can't really be compared, as they are such different players. For sure, there are so many tricks up Ronny's sleeve, but maybe Wazza's strength is better. His power and energy, too. They both have terrific mood swings and wear their hearts on their sleeves. When it comes to finishing, there isn't much to choose between them? Maybe Ronny was a little (lot?) more selfish with the ball.
However, Ronny is now part of United's glorious history and Wazza is part of the 'now', so of course, he's become the fans' favourite, if he wasn't already.
BTW, not sure I totally agree with tagging Berba 'the flop'. Great touch, and brings other players into the game. Check the Opta stats for last season. He made more passes and more tackles than Tevez, who was like a headless terrier at times.
