Tevez

[DoomMerchant]

I liken Tevez to the love of your life who then goes and shits on you for the greatest of heights just before you’re about to embark on marriage.........

She then rocks back up a few months later with her tail between her legs as the grass wasn’t greener and asks for you’re forgiveness which you reluctant give. All your mates are telling you that you’re daft and that she’s a c**t but you just can’t help herself as you love her so much.....

Things start back off slowly but then a few weeks later boom she’s back with a bang and you can feel yourself being sucked back in despite trying your very best to play it cool. You know deep down you don’t wanna love her but you just can’t help yourself, you know full well she will probably break your heart again but there is always that little thought at the back of your mind, that just maybe you could be wrong and it could be the best thing ever......

I don’t wanna love you Carlos Tevez cause you are a twunt but you melted me just a little bit today. The thoughts of what could have been though are still hanging over me and I don’t know if they will go away.......!!!!

I haven't ripped his name off the back of my shirt. Just yknow sayin.

[lets all have a disco]

I wonder if Tevez will stay for the next 2 years and then disappear back to Argentina on a free at the age of 30 with our blessing?

One can only hope.

Realistically I don't think there's any player in the world that could replace Tevez. That's why it would be foolish to sell him if he decides wants to stay. We are an infinitely better side with him in the team and he can lift a whole team. I mean look at the first goal yesterday, started with an error due to Tevez closing the player down and his third goal came from a backpass due to his closing down.

Somewhere there must be somebody, perhaps a young player, who can at least start to emulate him. We need to lookout for it.

When you look closely at his contribution stats compared to some others (as I've just mentioned in the Nige thread) it does start to make Mctavish's description of our usual strikers as 'traffic cones' appear less harsh.

Imo it has proved that we need such a player (something we didn't know until we actually saw him play with Aguero) & therefore has made the job of our scouts a bit easier; they know what they are looking for.

Perhaps. But Tevez is now 28 and I can't see any side shelling out 30 million on a 28 year old with that agent. And then there's his wages. The amount of goals he gets from simply closing down and putting defenders under pressure is fantastic.But he's also a fantastic finisher, passer dribbler and good in the air for a small man. He's a very, very unique player. One of a kind really and I've not seen anyone who I think can replace him.

Good in the air for a small man. made me laugh that. Would you have said that before he scored yesterday with his head? Is there another example of him heading the ball? I bet there is but I cant think of it but surely to say he is good in the air for a small man was unnecessary in your argument?

Didn't he score in the CC semi with his napper? Both legs come to think of it.

Scored a few with his head for us. Hence he's good in the air. Don't know what Doug's getting at.

Good in the air? I think he scored three headers that i've ever seen and only once did he actually leave the ground?

I wouldn't say that qualifies him as being "good in the air".

He's that good he doesn't even have to jump? Wow.

[Mase]

At the end of the day, if Tevez does or doesn't jump for a header he's still more likely to win one than fuckin Dzeko!!

hahaha should have read better in the air than Dzeko :) Bottom line is,he isnt good in the air.

[Ted Hughes]

Some of the one liners Tevez is coming out with are making me think he is looking further than the last few games, especially about a 'dream' of playing with Aguero 'his friend'. Just doesn't sound like someone who wants to leave.

Interesting situation for Bob to sort out come May.

I've got to admit, before Saturday I don't remember seeing Tevez scoring a header. But saying that I'm the guy who got that drunk for the FA Cup final that I don't remember walking in the stadium or any of the match....

Was this you asleep next to me?

[Mase]

Haha no that wasn't me. I maanaged to stay awake the whole 90......I think.

But I know you're telling fibs because the Norwich fans were singing "you'll never win fuck all" ? :P

Haha, years ago I went to Bury vs Chesterfield and got absolutely wankered before getting down to Wembley. I fell asleep on the bog just after half time and woke up to an empty stadium

Disagree completely. I'm nto saying he's a colossal in the air but for a small man he's very decent. Scored a good 6/7 goals for us with his head and scored a few with his head for the Rags. He puts himself about very well, you're just assuming he's small and therefore can't head the ball.

He's got better reactions than Dzeko or Balotelli & tries harder to get into goalscoring positions, so gets his head to a few & then has the composure & skill to finish.

Balotelli probably wouldn't have scored that header at Norwich as he would have gone for power (if he'd bothered) & either headed it over or hit the keeper, Dzeko would have probably got it on target but hit the keeper or given away a free kick, Tevez just bounced it gently over the keeper's head. Skill & composure.

[crossan]

Hat trick or not he should never have been allowed to wear a CITY shirt again and the golf swing is a disgraceful swipe at the management/owners.

[Original Dub]

The thing is, he's better than he ever was. That's scarey.

He'a cunt, but he's one of the best strikers in world football and he's hitting his prime. If his head was screwed on he could play well into his 30's but he keeps moaning that he wants to finish early.

He could actually drop further into midfield as he gets older.

Silly cunt. He annoys me so much.

Because he's probably my favourite city player and he's a stupid bastard.

His brains are in his feet Ronan thats why Kia can manipulate him so easily.
