Manchester City have been plunged into a new crisis after it emerged none of the substitutes on the bench in Munich actually heard Carlos Tevez refuse to play.

The news will throw the club into fresh turmoil, because it contradicts allegations made against the striker by boss Roberto Mancini.

And it backs up claims made by the Argentinian that he told Mancini he was ready to play.

The news will cast doubt on City's ability to discipline Tevez without facing legal claims from the player and his adviser, Kia Joorabchian.


City are expected to take evidence from Costel Pantillimon, Pablo Zabaleta, Joleon Lescott, James Milner, Aleksandar Kolarov - the other subs who were sitting alongside Tevez at the Allianz Arena - as well as Edin Dzeko, who had been replaced by Nigel De Jong, shortly before the incident.

They are all believed to accept that Tevez said he had already warmed up and did not need to do so again.

But none of them will confirm they heard him say he would not go on to replace Samir Nasri - which is the accusation levelled at him by Mancini.



.......right okay so thats why Zaba reacted the way he did a calm mild mannered soul....

And which ultra reliable source have you lifted this from?

Forget that, i've just read the thread. If you're gonna post shite from the shite newspapers then cite the source.
The respectable, honest folk at the Mirror.
 
if tevez was warmed up enough as he says,and not refusing to play,why didn't he simply stand up,indicating he wanted to get on the pitch? lies spouted by the tevez camp spin doctors i say.

Mendacious is as mendacious does.

I'll re-arrange it after the manner of a journalist:

"none of them will confirm they heard him say he would not go on" (i.e. no comment)

but that is unacceptable, so it is re-cast as

"none of the substitutes on the bench in Munich actually heard Carlos Tevez refuse to play"

I don't know how any City fan can read that pile of shite, never mind post it on the web, after the rubbish they've wrote about us for the last four years
 
That's the first I have seen of any interview with Tevez and in that he doesn't actually answer the question. I didn't hear him confirm he refused to play in that clip, was that just part of the interview ? Anyone got the full one where he says it. By no means looking to defend him just seen it said that he confirmed it in the interview and would like to see that.
