Tevez to return (Merged)

[Balti]

it is quite silly to take sides at this point, because Kia made it sound like that Tevez will talk and try to sort it out with Mancini tomorrow.

Time will tell. His presence on the pitch won't hurt our title run, it'll be if he throws a strop if he's on the bench every game.

won't hurt?????

it might if he's only there under duress in order to make sure he gets the move that he has wanted for so long now

will he really give a shit that he scores the winner in a game or if it peters out to a draw instead? will he really break his back to help our cause when he has proved that he is unreliable, untrustworthy and not at all interested in anything other than money?

in short - will it matter to him? will he fight tooth and nail to win the league?

will he fuck

will be like having ten men on the pitch

No Thanks

I don't think Tevez is coming back to a place he hates, trains twice a day for two-three weeks, bides his time on the bench, come on and kick the ball into his own net.

he doesn't have to kick the ball in his own net

we've seen his disinterested ineffective performances before when he's not been getting his own way

can't afford to carry a disinterested passenger at such a crucial stage of the season

bottom line.......we are a better team without him

Bluemoon is gonna be in meltdown shortly!

Thank fuck it's only because of this and noit because we (god forbid) drew a match or something.

I dont want a fucking apology, I want to win the league.

An apology means sod all, goals and victories are ALL that matters, and I don't care who we play to get them.

The toys seem be being thrown out of the pram by the people that would throw a hissy fit if he came back and played, not vice versa.

You get out the wrong side of the bed today?

I suggest an early night

Any Blue still wanting him back is bigger twat then Tevez is himself.

Tell me why mate..I support the team and the club..Not any particular component of the team.tevez is an employee (albeit a lucky one) and he is paid to do a job.Dont give a fuck if he never smiles,never declares his love for city or the manager again but if he scores the goal which makes us Champions then I will be happy.

Some people are so sensitive.

SKY begin City assault

Tevez - Treated like a dog
Man City striker blasts manager over Bayern bench row

Carlos Tevez has accused Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini of 'treating him like a dog' during their infamous bench bust-up at Bayern Munich back in September.

The Argentina international has not featured for City since before that night, when he refused to warm-up against Bayern in the UEFA Champions League with Mancini's men losing 2-0.

He has spent the past couple of months AWOL back in his homeland after failing to secure a January move away from the club, with his City career appearing to be over.

However, the striker is due to return to England on Tuesday and Paul McCarthy, who is an advisor to Tevez's representative Kia Joorabchian, confirmed earlier on Monday recent discussions have paved the way for him to return to Mancini's squad.

The forward has broken his silence on the Bayern incident ahead of returning to Etihad Stadium and has hit out at the manager's treatment of him during the row.
Bad mood

Tevez claims he sat back down on the bench after warming up because he believed Mancini was employing a more defensive approach after taking off striker Edin Dzeko and replacing him with holding midfielder Nigel de Jong.

"I was kind of in a bad mood and when (Mancini) brings on De Jong and takes off Dzeko, and we're losing 2-0, I thought it was a defensive substitution. So I decided to sit back on the bench," he said in an interview with Fox Sports in Argentina.

"So I'd already warmed up for 10 minutes and he has this attitude that he wants to lose 2-0 instead of 4-0.

"So I sat down and at the same time Dzeko comes off and is really angry and has a go at Mancini. He then sees the tunnel is closed so he has to sit down next to him and they start to have an argument.

"Dzeko was speaking Bosnian and Mancini would swear at him in Italian, so it was a real mess.

"So I go and sit down and he doesn't see me because he's having this discussion. But then he turns around and sees me and you can imagine what happens. He's in the middle of an argument.

"So then he tells me to keep on warming up and treats me like a dog. When he spoke to me in that tone of voice I said 'no I'm not going out'.

"So I was willing to play but the coach was in such a foul mood, because he had that argument with Dzeko, he started on me as well, started swearing at me.

"That was him, because I was very calm. I was just sitting on the bench and you could see from the footage I was calm and just talking to (Pablo) Zabaleta. Mancini said some horrible things to me."

Not sure what to make of this. If he comes back & plays well it could make us better as a team. On the other hand he could come back & completely derail our season. If Bobby is being forced to take him back he could decide he's had enough, which I would be more gutted about. This could be a season defining moment. I'm not sure if it is worth the risk to have him back, the negatives outweigh the positives for me.

I don't understand what people don't get about this. Tevez doesn't like our club, doesn't care about playing for us, looked highly disinterested in the beginning of the season, now all of a sudden he's gonna come back and win us the title. Hah.
