rickmcfc said:Can someone tell me what he has actually done wrong in this interview? He said exactly what needed saying - the truth about what happened in Munich. He has admitted things were not done correctly out in Germany and that he will return back to City to help us win the title. There was lots of good and positive things he said in the interview, non of which Sky, BBC, or any newspaper have picked up on. The reason for this, because Tevez repairing the damage he has done with Mancini is bad new for all the other Clubs. Many of which the Media support. Take Sky Sports News and Steve Curry this morning. They were slagging Tevez off for wearing an expensive watch and having a seat in First Class on his flight home. What should he have done? Built a raft and arrived in 3 months on the Wind and Tides alone??? They hate the fact that there is a chance of the Tevez/Mancini relationship being repaired and him playing for City again this season, and they will do anything they can do to make this not happen. Some of you need to wake up, smell the coffee and stop taking what the media take as gospel. The reason why so many of you are listening to the Media, is because you won't forgive Tevez at any price, therefor WANT him and Mancini to continue the fall out that has plagued them both for the last 5 months. The most important thing to me this season is to win the League. If that means a fit and fighting Tevez pulls on the shirt and helps us to achieve this goal, then so be it. Ive waited far to long for this, and nobody will ruin it. If Mancini can forgive gim then so should the fans. Granted i wasn't out in Munich and didnt spend £500 of my hard earned supporting the team, but i can assure you had i of been in Munich, i would forgive him if he wants to come back and play football, and more importantly win us the title. For the first time since this started, right now we need a fit and fighting Tevez for the first time, so lets back the manager, and Tevez if he picks him, and support the team for the remainder of the season.

If your wife had an affair would you trust her completely again even though she says she's done nothing wrong and has never apologised? ;-)
Imho, Tevez cannot be trusted ina City shirt again and we don't have the luxury of 'free' games for him to prove me wrong.

TEVEZ: "I decided not to talk to the media for the last four months. Last time I spoke was right after the Bayern Munich game"
TEVEZ: "It was a delicate situation. I decided to say nothing about it during all this time"
TEVEZ: I want to go back to Manchester and win over the City fans back. People turned their back on me but it's normal. I didn't understand
TEVEZ: "I didn't understand City fans burning my shirt. It hurt. It's normal they react like that because they read all sorts of thing"
TEVEZ: I've decided to return to City. I know I have what it takes to revert the situation. I know it'll be hard, but it's a nice challenge
TEVEZ on the Bayern episode: "I have warmed up during the 1st half. Then went to dressing room. For 2nd half I was ready"
TEVEZ: "In that 2nd half MANCINI decides to replace DZEKO with DE JONG. It was a defensive sub. I didn't understand. DZEKO argued w/MANCINI"
TEVEZ: "I decided to sit. MANCINI was upset for arguing with DZEKO. Then he looks at me and asks me to warm up"
TEVEZ: "MANCINI told me all sorts of things there. I don't know why. I was relaxed. I was talking to ZABALETA. I had no problems"
TEVEZ: "I never refused to play. I refused to keep warming up. The club investigated and then they fined me"
TEVEZ: "I was worried about my future after that 2-week fine. That fine was OK. But I want people to know the truth. They didn't want to"
TEVEZ: "The club statement protected the manager. I got a lot of heat from the media in England, Argentina, everywhere".
TEVEZ: "Everytime I wanted to take my daughter to school I had 5 journalists on my back. Trained with the reserves. It was uncomfortable"
TEVEZ: "I was affected because of this situation. I wanted to find shelter with my family".
TEVEZ: "It is true that AC Milan had an interest in me. City didn't want to lose $. It wasn't good for City having me away in Buenos Aires"
TEVEZ: "I have been training on my own. I know I can be back on the pitch in 2 weeks. I'm willing to play"
TEVEZ: "It was really emotional being back at La Bombonera (Boca Jrs stadium) for the Martín PALERMO testimonial. It was moving"
TEVEZ: "If it's true that MANCINI said he will welcome me back if I'm fit, then I like those quotes. But if he only said it for the media...
TEVEZ: "But he also said I was never going to be playing for him again. So I don't know. I'll do my best to be available and play"
TEVEZ: MANCINI's position got stronger when Kun AGUERO arrived. I don't know if he would have done the things he did if this was last season
TEVEZ: Last season we almost exchanged punches! But he never said anything. He got a better team this season & felt like making the decision
TEVEZ: "Now that I have a cooler head, I understand City fans. Back in the heat of the moment I didn't. I did a lot of things for City"
TEVEZ: "To be insulted by fans after what happened in Munich was something I didn't deserve"
TEVEZ: "I was very upset by everything and maybe I wasn't seeing things clearly. That Bayern episode could have been avoided"
TEVEZ: "They could have kicked me out of the club without saying all the things they said. Deal with the situation in a different way"
TEVEZ: "I think that's where MANCINI got things wrong. If we had a problem, we could have sorted it out in a different way"
TEVEZ: "Last season, after a home game vs. Newcastle, we almost hit each other in the dressing room. But we spoke the following day"
TEVEZ: "MANCINI is a winner. And I'm a winner too. None of us like to lose"
TEVEZ "My first few months in England (West Ham), I felt terrible. I wanted out. I wasn't playing. But I worked hard & turned things around"
TEVEZ: "I love the English league. I think it's the best in the world. I have a problem with Christmas and New Year's Day. You have to play"
TEVEZ: "Going to train on 24 December, sometimes play on the 25th. It's tough. I didn't like that"
TEVEZ: "There's no need for City to make me have 2 training sessions a day. I'll do it myself."
TEVEZ: "I picture myself going back on the pitch and I know I have to play better than I ever did"
TEVEZ: "I suffered a lot with the national team too. I saw myself out of Copa America. I came here and I wasn't prepared to play that Copa"
TEVEZ: "I felt I wasn't going to be considered. So I didn't prepare. But I came back here and people showed me a lot of love"
TEVEZ: "Fans here in Argentina have always been great to me. I will keep playing because I'm still hungry for more glory"
TEVEZ: "I train in the mornings. I play a lot of golf. In England it's the middle of winter now so I won't be able to play much. I love it"
TEVEZ: "My first goal now is to be back at full fitness. I have trained on my own but lost contact with the ball. Gotta get that back"
TEVEZ: "It's tough to talk about City's title challenge now. I feel like I'm out the squad. I wish I can go back there and help them win"
TEVEZ: "I know FERGUSON really doesn't want to lose this title race. I think FERGUSON and BIELSA are the best managers"
TEVEZ: "I know FERGUSON didn't have the best relationship with me but together with BIELSA, those two are the best managers I had"
TEVEZ: "Paul SCHOLES is the best professional. Him ROONEY and GIGGS...I have no words. They were excellent to me"
TEVEZ: "I know I have a huge challenge ahead. I'm full of energy. Thanks to all the people that were with me during these last 4 months..."
TEVEZ: "...I have discovered the love for the game again. I want to play again. I want to train. Things I've lost 4 months ago"
TEVEZ: "I'll do my best to do that. I said I was going to retire at 28 and was thinking about it, but not anymore. I want to succeed again"
