‘My Relationship With Man City Is Beyond Repair’ – Carlos Tevez

Having seen a written transfer request knocked back on Saturday evening, Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez remains adamant that he will quit the club sooner rather than later – citing ‘irreconcilable differences’ between he and certain club executives (who he claims have painted him as, heaven forbid, some kind of cash-grabbing mercenary) as the main catalyst behind his decision to force a move from Eastlands.

In a statement, Tevez said:

“It is something I have felt for some time and have spent many hours thinking this through.

“I hugely resent suggestions that I have been unduly influenced by others. I wanted to leave in the summer, but was convinced to return. Sadly, my feelings have not changed.

“I am disappointed that the management should now see fit to try to portray the situation in another light.

“My relationship with certain executives and individuals at the club has broken down and is now beyond repair. I do not wish to expand on this at this stage. They know, because I have told them.”

I’ll have a shilling on one of the homesick Argentine’s chief antagonists being perennial scheister Gary Cook, who seems to have the innate ability to upset almost everybody he comes across.

Anywho, it seems City may be about to deal with the hiccup in the only way they know how – by chucking wads of cash at the problem and hoping it goes away.

Reports this morning are suggesting that City are now preparing to offer Tevez a new two-year (thus reducing the time he is bound to the club by 18 months), £325,000-a-week contract and/or a one-off payment of as much as £5 million in a bid to persuade the forward to stay on at the club – presumably until he pulls the exact same stunt around July time.

    Why have you directly quoted Tevez as saying his relationship with ‘man city’ has broken down. He didn’t say that. He has a problem with senior executives. Mong.

    I’ve paraphrased because ‘certain senior Manchester City executives’ would have made the headline a bit too unwieldy. I know it’s playing fast and loose with journalistic integrity, but it just so happens that I don’t have any anyway.

    hahahah so good! I was going to jump on the ‘way-to-misquote-Tevez’ bandwagon, then I read that, Chris ftw.

    What a suprise. Won’t shut up, wants more money, does nothing but whine. It takes a certain mentality to be a professional footballer and he clearly lacks it. He should retire already so we don’t have to hear this crap each time some manager has the nerve to subsititute this ungreateful moaner.

    His problem is not with the manager, it’s with the executives… strange considering he has hardly any contact with the executives and speaks maybe two words of english. Really exposes him once again as Kia’s puppet… any coincidence that Kia is banned from Eastlands? this is his revenge.
