Dimitar Berbatov has shown professionalism and commitment unlike quite a few foreigners without naming them who appeared as they were not playing with full commitment. The former Manchester United striker has made 4 interceptions so far, the most by any Kerala Blasters player, highlighting his intelligence and ability to read of the game.

The 38-year-old also has attempted 8 tackles from 3 matches, further emphasising his commitment and contribution, both defensively and offensively. Berbatov’s commitment to not only contribute going forward but also help the team regain possession is a big reason why he has been the best Kerala Blasters player so far.
