Well, they both need to show a hell of a lot more next season. Big season coming up for both of them.Sam_B said:Dax777 said:Perhaps we don't need a replacement for Tevez.

^^^^ this. I personally dont think we need or can get a direct replacement for tevez in terms of the way tevez plays, we have our goalscorers in dzeko and balotelli, what we need is someone who can sit behind the main striker and cause havoc in the way tevez did (and of course bag a goal or two), so the likes of hulk etc. Obviously i wont be complainig if we brought in say... higuain, the main factor is none of us definatly know what formation mancini wants to play, if we did it would be a hell of alot easier to try and figure out what sort of player we need/are looking at.
Im just gonna roll with it and see how this all pans out.

LoveCity said:MANCHESTER City are planning a £27m bid for Napoli striker Ezequiel Lavezzi.
Carlos Tevez last night stunned Manchester City by insisting he wants to quit the club.
It means Roberto Mancini will have to move quickly if he wants to replace Tevez.
Ezequiel Lavezzi, 26, is valued at £27million by his Italian club Napoli and as we exclusively revealed last month that City have already held talks about bringing him to Manchester.
As a young player in Argentina, he was hailed as “the new Diego Maradona” because of his skill and chunky build.
But Lavezzi responded to that by stating: “I am not the new Maradona – I am more like Tevez.”
Lavezzi also interests Tottenham and has been linked with Champions League winners Barcelona.
The Argentine international joined Napoli for £6m from San Lorenzo in his home country.
City were originally eyeing Lavezzi’s Napoli striker partner Edinson Cavani – but he has signed a new contract with the Serie A club.
