It’s always struck me that whenever City lose or play badly, it’s usually only Tevez who escapes criticism, mainly for his visible effort and honest endeavour when the opposition have got the ball.
However, our iconic moments from last season rarely featured Tevez. In fact his best moments arrived during that strange week against West Brom and at Norwich when we thought City had blown the title and needed the rags to drop points.
Even the winning goals against Newcastle and QPR appeared after he had left the field.
It was Tevez who got us going against Swansea, but in some games he plays with almost schoolboy indiscipline following the ball all over the pitch.
His performance against West Brom was typically vibrant yet on two occasions he ran into the wrong space when Balotelli had the ball and the move broke down.
Is he the best player in a team, struggling for form or is he the main reason why we often look so lopsided?
Can't make my mind up
