Carlos Tevez

[Andouble]

I think if Tevez goes, Dzeko stays. We won't replace 3 of our 4 strikers over one season (including Mario)

Nah, we'll try and shift both Carlos and Dzeko if the right bids come in. Do't think we'd be too bothered if Carlos stuck around for another season though.

Cavani, Sergio and A.N Other (older experienced player who's happy not to play every week) with Guidetti as 4th striker plus we'll probably sign a wide player that's comfortable up front if necessary.

Tevez is now an attacking midfielder.

This.

I think I read he has 17 goals and 10 assists in all competitions this season, and for the majority he has been playing as a number 10 rather than the main man up front.

Personally I think we would be stupid to not to keep him for a few more years, as an attacking midfielder, or a number 10 there is not many in the world better than him.

I disagree, quite strongly in fact. I think it's largely due to this we've been so limp up front this season. Put Hazard or Mata in Tevez's position and we'd have added 20 goals to our tally IMO. Tevez was always at his best as a sole striker, and his effectiveness has slowly but surely diminished with the rise of the rest of our attack (notably Aguero). He holds onto the ball far too long to play as an ACM. I think he'd tear it up moving to a team where he can be the main striker again.

If we could shift on Tevez and replace him with a proper ACM, not a converted striker, we'd be so much more lethal up front. Or if we're going to have Cavani up top and Aguero wide left, put Silva or Nasri there. Both have got more vision and willingness to play in team mates than Tevez.

Tevez is now an attacking midfielder.

Probably more out of necessity as often the lack of creativity caused him to provide some himself.

Tevez is now an attacking midfielder.

Deploys himself there and slows the play down.

hOW MUCH WOULD WE HAVE TO PAY TO GET SOMEONE LIKE TEVEZ, REMEMBER WE HAVE LOTS OF MONEY, WE DONT HAVE TO LOOK TO MAKE A PROFIT ON PLAYERS. ANYONE THAT THINKS WE WOULD BE BETTER OFF WITHOUT TEVEZ IS A NUMPTY

Clueless , first off what's ACM?


Secondly , he contributed towards 27 goals from that position......who are you after zidane ?
