Berbatov: Moving to Monaco hasn't changed me

Dimitar Berbatov says he hasn't changed since leaving England for AS Monaco.

Monaco meet Champions League opponents Arsenal tonight.

Berbatov, who appeared as a sub when Manchester United beat Arsenal in the 2009 Champions League semi-finals, said: "I don't think I have changed - otherwise it would not be me.

"I play the way I play, you probably know I have never been the quickest player around, but always try to be quick in my mind.

"When you get a bit older, you gain more experience and you try to put it to good use, to help yourself in different ways and also the young players.

"My job is to help my team-mates and my team, with my goals, my assists and advice to the young players because in our team we have a lot and they have a great future ahead of them.

"You win together and lose together as a team, if we can play as a team tomorrow, not like individuals, then we have a chance."
