Tevez to return (Merged)

[salfordblues]

Good post. Tevez is clearly to blame with his repeated petulance towards the manager. It doesn't matter if Mancini did speak to him "like a dog", he was bang out of order for sitting down with his chin out.

But the way the club has handled it since has been awful. A mess. There is a solution, only one that I can see. A fudged reunion and fake apology. For the good of City.

A fudged reunion may be ok in the short term but if results take a downward turn or Tevez finds something to kick off about then we open everything up again.

I think there's a fair chance that Tevez, Mancini and the club can all be losers at the end of all this.

We've been burnt in the past by this guy, it's too big of a risk to take, we're good enough without him.

It is only for three months. Part of it has to be "we both shut our mouths for three months then we part ways.". It's in both parties interests. WE are good enough without him, I do agree, and the period we needed him most may just have passed.

Spot on, I honestly believe that it would be in everyone's interest. The club, Mancini and Kia all know it.

But (and it's a big but) Tevez is a law unto himself.

He has a track record for doing anything but keeping his mouth shut and this my basis for believing it won't work.

All this moral high ground "I will walk out the stadium/I will turn my back" tosh makes me laugh. Noone's going anywhere, quit with the melodrama. He'll get a few boos, maybe a chant or two, he'll win the ball back in some Tevez-style hassle and all will be fine again.

That's if he plays, of course.

You of all people accusing others of melodrama. Laughable.

No.

"I will walk out the stadium" is fucking laughable.

I imagine some big fat proud stubborn buffoon with his bottom lip out walking down Ashton New Road while the rest of us celebrate our first title win in forty odd years.

Tis not you who will be laughing, friend, not you...

You won't be celebrating fully, you'll be torn between the joy of winning and the knowledge that you've been proved wrong about Mancini.

some ppl are fixated on winning trophies at all costs, it shouldnt be that way. i rather come 2nd that win one with that runt after all we did for him and the amount of abuse we got off him. hes disruptive, no 2 ways about it, he even said him and bobby nearly came to blows in past. you cant tell me that 100% of the squad will welcome him back, so in that case even one person whos unhappy will reflect on the squad

That's cutting your nose off to spite your face though. If we could see into the future and it was shown that kettle neck's goals on the last game of the season were the difference in finishing first or second, I will have those goals all day long. He will be gone in the summer anyway and he won't get a winners medal as i'm guessing he won't have fulfilled the percentage of games criteria to be awarded one, (unless that only happens in the CL). We may aswell have those goals which secure the title than finish 2nd to United.

He's a ****, by the way but i'm just seeing things for the good of City, and a title in that cabinet is better than not having one, obviously.

I will not cheer nor will i boo him.


Instead i will bark everytime he gets the ball and so will my phone.

Stop implying our first title in forty years will be down to Tevez if you believe, as you just said, we're good enough without him. The season's 2/3 complete and he's had fuck all to do with us being top.

I'm not happy to see him back as I'd prefer it if he wasn't anywhere near our first team squad.

HOWEVER I can't deny that when I just saw him, getting out of his hummer at Carrington, a smile broke out on my face and in my mind I felt a bit of joy at seeing a man that was a hero to us for the last 2 years back at the club.

He's a top class **** though.

i rather come 2nd that win one with that runt after all we did for him and the amount of abuse we got off him.

Do you think rag fans said the same about Rooney? I'm happy enough for him to do his bit, drive his value up and get a decent price for him in the summer. Sadly, it's not always possible to get a pragmatic solution that meets everyone's delicate moral sensibilities. Sometimes you have to hold your nose when you put rubbish out.

If we come second Mancini will get the sack.

If Tevez does return - I will lose any and all respect for Mancini.

How would you expect Mancini from stopping Tevez returning when he is contracted to Man City. He can not play him but there is no way he can stop him returning

Perhaps he should have thought about that BEFORE he announced publicly that Tevez would never play for City again?

or Tevez telling the world that he would never return to Manchester !!
