Answer is simple for Berbatov
Tottenham head coach Juande Ramos believes the only way for Dimitar Berbatov to silence jeers from his own fans this weekend is to find the net against Sunderland.
Berbatov has handed in a transfer request and is being continually linked with a move to Manchester United, and Saturday's match is his return to White Hart Lane following the summer transfer saga.
The 27-year-old, who has been on international duty with Bulgaria this week, is tipped for a hostile reception when he gets back to action with his club.
"Tottenham fans are no exception to any others - they support the team and get behind the side," said Ramos.
"If a player is on form, if he knocks in a couple of goals then I'm sure anyone who booed him last week will soon be getting behind him and cheering him. That is what it is like.
"While he is still here, he is very much 100 per cent a Tottenham player; that is how we consider things. It is not a case of finding a solution to a problem before it occurs."
Berbatov was on the bench against Middlesbrough last week, on the day after he submitted his formal transfer request - and Ramos is yet to decide if his striker is ready to return to the starting XI.

can he play for spuds on sat and us on monday ?
Rams, did you bump into Gill in Amsterdam yesterday?
How can you guys possibly tell from that picture? There are no landmarks. You know how many places in England could possibily look like that!?
Bump in to him? I shafted him during a drug fuelled orgy whilst discussing the sale of Huntelaar.
I asked him the question and all he could say was "oooooh, deeper"
what will his buyout be at the end of the season? that will be the end of his 3 years right?
Berby has decided to snub us and join Newcastle instead. 
Looks like this could go into the last week.It really smells of desperation in this thread.Bulgarian websites,Stills from setanta and dodgy signed autographs from the Sun.
September 1st it will happen I think. But it makes no difference. We won't have him for Portsmouth and our next big game is not until Liverpool on September 13th. We'll be much healthier for that game anyway with Nani, Anderson, Carrick, Haregraeves, Park and Giggs back probably.

Nice hair. Looks like he could be in a shit 90s boyband.
I get the feeling that this may be the last chance for Berbatov. If we dont sign him this summer we probably never will.
I think that´s a CSKA Sofia shirt, his old club.Berby has decided to snub us and join Newcastle instead.
More or less the same content.

Translated
The master of the Bulgarian national team Dimitar Berbatov and his manager Emil Danchev deployed to Manchester for finalizing the transfer of Bulgarians in the English champion Man United.
President of Tottenham Daniel Levy has finally accepted the proposal of "red devils" for transfernata amount and manner of its payment Berbatov is expected today to agree with the club by "Old Trafford" for his personal terms and tomorrow or on Saturday to sign with kontrakt the team and thus ending one of the longest transfer sagi protochilite be in Europe this summer.
Hope it's true, but doubt it.
Kann das jemand mal ubersetzen?
Can someone translate that?
Cela peut-il traduire fois quelqu'un?
Berbatov seems a bit of a poser in front of cameras 
Some Spurs fans are disbelievers as well. I read that some of them think the red shirt he was signing belonged to that club. When it clearly has our 'unique' white stripe design and it says MUFC at the top.
Kinky and boring gone yet? I have an urge to post.
Berbatug time yet? Or should i put my little friend away for a while longer.
Please note - keep all wumming out of the Berbatov thread.

Berbatov slept in Toon shirt
DIMITAR BERBATOV grew up worshipping Alan Shearer — and slept in a No 9 Newcastle shirt!
The Spurs striker was bought a Toon strip bearing his name and Big Al’s number as an 18th birthday gift from his parents.
And that was the reason he chose the No 9 shirt when he moved to Tottenham in the summer of 2006.
The Bulgarian, 26, will be relishing the chance to walk out at St James’ Park on Monday night where Shearer was so popular for 10 years.
Berba’s mum Margarita, 45, a former champion handball player, recalls how the Shearer shirt became her boy’s prized possession.
She said: “Dimitar wore this shirt all the time.
“He even used to sleep in his Newcastle shirt! It’s that special to him.
“Dimitar told me it was his dream to play for Newcastle United one day and wear the same shirt as Alan Shearer, who is my son’s hero.
“Shearer was a major inspiration for him to work hard for himself and the team. He liked the fact that Alan Shearer scored goals but was not a selfish player.
“Dimitar thinks this shirt may even have been a sign he was meant to play in England.”
Berbatov was brought up in a sports-mad house. His father Ivan was a striker for CSKA Sofia but the youngster chose Newcastle as his team. Berbatov was such a fan of Toon legend Shearer he even tucked into the ex-England hitman’s famous pre-match meal of chicken and beans.
Shearer netted 148 league goals in 295 games for Newcastle and in his schooldays little Dimi got into trouble for scribbling Shearer’s name and records on his school books.
Then when he hit the big-time, he bought his mum a Honda Civic with a personalised number plate that included the No 9.
His old schoolmate Mario Bekov, who has known Berbatov for 20 years, said his admiration for the former Toon ace bordered on obsession.
He said: “Dimitar never missed a Newcastle game when it was on television. And Shearer was up there with Pele as a God for him.”
Another pal, Stefan Damianov, recalled how Berbatov considered himself to be an honorary Geordie as he followed the Toon and grew up in a mining region of Blagoevgrad.
He said: “People in this part of Bulgaria like the Newcastle team especially and identify themselves with the football-mad culture of the people there and loyalty to the team.”
PAST TIMES ... Dimitar aged eight, flat in Blagoevgrad, and with dad Ivan, brother Asen and mum Margarita
Sadly for Berbatov, Shearer had hung up his boots by the time he made his first visit to Tyneside last December.
But this next visit will still be crucial with only goal difference separating Spurs from the bottom three at the start of the weekend.
Berbatov enjoyed an explosive first season in English football and scored 23 goals after his £10.9million move from Bayer Leverkusen.
He is idolised by Spurs fans and is already considered as good as White Hart Lane legends Alan Gilzean, Glenn Hoddle and Jurgen Klinsmann.
But Berbatov has not enjoyed as much success so far this term with just two goals to his name in nine appearances.
He remains highly ambitious and is unlikely to be impressed by Tottenham’s shaky start to the season.
His mum added: “Dimitar has told me he’s hungry to win cups and wants to play in the Champions League in the next few years.”

Cnuts made more then one WUM in the last couple of days, there was a thread of his about Gill in Amsterdam, he should be banned
Apparently Cnut and Melinky have been banned!
Mum's the word then.
According to who? Kinky's still online.
You want a source?
That depends. Did someone tell you that, or did you figure it out yourself?
No one's banned
Yet!
Yet!
WUMMING in the berbatov thread. Ban him.
I see there is no news and Dimriel Berbastuta has still got no closer to signing.
This is getting tideous now, I also dont like that signing our shirt stuff.
