Has Tevez lost the plot?

[skillman]

Worth mentioning again:

Above all Carlos is averse to passing to a fellow striker. On two notable occasions, he passed to Edin Dzeko and Edin scored. The second time - when Edin scored his second goal against Aris instead of passing back to him - Carlos's immediate reaction spoke volumes. In any event, taking just Premier League games covered by the Guardian Chalkboard, Carlos passed just half a dozen times in total to Edin in the games against Wolves, Birmingham, Manchester United, West Brom, Fulham and Liverpool. It is hard to describe just how dismal that statistic is.

I've just watched it on CityTV and Tevez goes straight over to Dzeko and hugs him? I'm presuming that you were saying Tevez threw a paddy, though.

There were also 2 key passes (to Edin and Silva, I think) when he came on against Bolton, but both were put over or went wide. These things don't seem to be mentioned as it doesn't suit the debate.

Also, in the second half of that Aris game at home, he passed it to Balotelli before he hit the post.

Nobody is saying he never passes.

So, to say he's not a team player is to a redundant argument when you actually look at the facts.

As well as the 20 goals he had in the league, he also got 6 assists, not bad for someone who is a one man show.

I've heard it muttered.

So 3 passes Tevez actually DID make proves he is a team player? I wouldn't take that to court...

just read this on the daily fail website -

One player who has already made a huge impact at the Etihad stadium is fellow South American Sergio Kun Aguero.
Aguero has scored three goals in three games Barlcays Premier League games, but his grasp of English isn’t as fluent as his footwork.
Tevez revealed: ‘Kun is studying English. I would say give him a week or 10 days more and he will give up. The first week he said: “I’ve got English today”.
‘The second week he said the same but with a different expression on his face...and the third week he went off for a siesta instead.’

Just so im not going mad, Aguero was with us 3 weeks before Tevez returned so how would he know what he was like in his first few weeks of learning English

A few supporters have lost the plot. Sniping at one of our best players from a position of total ignorance.

I am looking forward to Tevez returning against Wigan
