Tevez vows to give 100%

The prospect of a disgruntled Carlos Tevez playing out the rest of the season at Manchester City moved closer yesterday when he returned to training for the first time since the club refused his request for a transfer.

Fears that Tevez would fail to show up at the club's Carrington centre yesterday, after a four-day holiday in Tenerife, proved unfounded when at midday he arrived in a black Hummer to join up with the rest of the first team for light training.

Tevez is understood to have told his team-mates he will give 100 per cent to City until the day he leaves, but is not considering backing down in his confrontation with the club's management. He is not thought to have had any contact with manager Roberto Mancini who is currently in Italy.

Tevez's advisers yesterday made it clear that the striker is adamant about his desire to leave Eastlands, over what he considers to be broken promises made by the club's chief executive Garry Cook, despite his appearance at the training ground. These assurances are believed to concern commercial deals not directly linked to his contract.

Tevez is also said to have stated that City is not a pleasant place to work, despite a seven-game unbeaten run in the Premier League that has seen them rise up to third place in the table, two points behind leaders Manchester United.

The striker has also made it clear he is missing his two daughters, Florencia, five, and eight-month-old Katie, who live with his estranged wife Vanesa, who speaks no English, in Argentina. He has told his advisers that a move to Spain offers the best hope of him being reunited with his daughters, as Vanesa could be convinced to move to Spain.

Only Barcelona or Real Madrid could afford to buy Tevez, but his advisers insist no contact has yet been received from either club. They also say there have been some professional differences with Mancini but these are not believed to be a major reason for his desire to leave the club.

City for their part have insisted they will not sell the 26-year-old Argentine during next month's transfer window, leading to a bitter stand-off between the title hopefuls and their most important player. Senior officials at the club claim the row is being driven by the player's main adviser, Kia Joorabchian, something Tevez has steadfastly denied.

Mancini did not meet Tevez yesterday as the manager is in Italy where he is to undergo minor surgery on his eye before Thursday's Europa League game with Juventus. Tevez is not likely to travel for that game, along with several other first-team players, including Mario Balotelli, although his exclusion is not thought to be related to any potential racism, and Mancini will be questioned on the situation today in Turin. The manager will meet Tevez on Friday, where the question of the captaincy will be an immediate priority. It is widely expected that Tevez will lose the job and either Kolo Touré or Vincent Kompany will be asked to take over.

Defender Micah Richards yesterday expressed his concerns that allowing Tevez to leave would be a massive blow to the club's title aspirations.

Richards, writing on Twitter, said Tevez's departure would hit City badly but that the club would have to move on. The full-back said: "I can't say much on Carlos and he's a top guy, but whatever happens – onwards & upwards. Gaffer will be in control & we're focused on next game. Seen so many players come and go but Carlos would b a big loss if he left id b gutted same sort of feeling as when Dunny [Richard Dunne] and Superman [Stephen Ireland] left."

Yes, the money grabbing, self-centred ego-maniac is so desperate to se his daughters

You can fuck off too, you herman munster loving prick. What he has done here is so distasteful, not only to us, but also his girlfriend and kids. He has shown to be nothing but a liar and a money hungry cnut.

 

[mostonblue]

Was the situation with his wife and daughter(s) the same when he was with the rags? Surely he knew what the situation would be when he came here!

Agreed, can see why other fans think we are arrogant now...

No they were in Cheshire but then he played away and she fucked off back to Argentina since when he has a long term bird on the side. Google Mariana Paesani and you'll get the gist.

 

[JoeMercer'sWay]

I don't believe him.

couldn't have put it better myself. he is a complete disgrace, a man of high self-importance yet little dignity or self-respect. I find him quite disgusting.

Why is it arrogant to find his actions and words distasteful and beyond reproach?
We don't expect all players to love the club but FFS they should not disrespect it in the manner he has so blatantly. If you turn a blind eye to this situation out of some misplaced grattitude that City have such a world class player then you have no respect for the club. Remoinds me of guys who will put up with their bird cheating on them just because she's ultra fit and they are grateful to have her......sad and embarassing really....

Er... Is there really any need for that mate?

Chill. There's a long way to go in this story yet so let's wait until Friday and see what Mancini says/wants... I'm with him whatever he does.

Tevez has not slagged off the club, fans, players or manager and he's performed brilliantly on the pitch until now and will probably continue to do so until he does leave... This isn't IACGMOOH, although it's getting more like it every day tbf, it's a football club whose business is winning football matches not popularity contests.

But he should not be given an improved contact under any circumstances or sold on the cheap.

But, until whatever happens, happens, then he's paid to score goals and he can't do that in the EDS. Well he can, but you know what I mean.

This is about City, not Tevez. To start with all this let him rot in the reserves nonsense shows that we care too much about him. Well I used to. Not any more. Now he just scores as many as possible before Dzeko arrives...

Maybe he knew Dzeko was coming to take his place in January anyway and that's why he's spit his dummy out now...?

Who knows?
