The sad thing is, that he could have had it all at City. He's the main man/leading scorer and club captain of a team that is in a Wembley final and battling hard to be in the Champions League next season. If we do get 4th, not only will the cheque book come out again, but a whole new rank of footballing superstar suddenly becomes available. Some of those players will never step below playing Champions League football, if we get in the competition that is no longer a worry.
Quite simply City play in the most exciting league in the world and are becoming one of the most talked about teams on the planet. To have that all in the palm of your hand and decide you'd rather go somewhere else, simply doesn't make sense.
I really rate Tevez, until the transfer request he could do no wrong. However, if he's too shortsighted to see that we have everything in place to be a force in world football then that is his own problem. If we win the FA Cup and qualify for the Champions League, players will be knocking themselves out of the way to replace him. City showed against united that we are far from a one man team and if Tevez goes then its a shame but we'll be ok. I still hold out hope that on the first day of next season he will be in our starting line up though.
