Tevez hands in transfer request
- Thread starter aaron333
- Start date
Not really, the players listed wanted away and they chose to sell when they did to make what money they could.
Manu lost ronaldo, they did not choose to sell. They sold because there was no option but to sell a player who wanted away and whose transfer value was at a peak.
Had there been a choice they would have kept him.
For all the talk on here of City players wanting away, the same is true with any clubs fringe players. You could write a list of Manu/Arsenal or Chelsea players that have wanted away over the last few years and some of those wouldn't be the fringe players lescott and RSC are.
Yep Tevez has done well and Fergie handled the situation with him very well in the end it seems. He made the right call.
Players like Lescott and RSC are bound to want away when they are not playing. Just a victim of the club growing so fast and buying even better players 6 months down the line under a new manager.
Tevez clearly has issues with authority the same as rooney. When the guys that actually run the teams tell them something they don't like they can't handle it.

thats fine - no problem with that , but why sign such a long (and high-paying) contract if you know it will keep you 1000's of miles away from home for 9 months of the year (or there abouts)
Dont agree with that - it rarely pays to keep an unhappy player (the value goes down AND usually you get an unhappy player)
There is always the Fabregas issue to compare to Ronaldo (if the club stick to their guns etc) but Fabregas will go eventually - unless Barca give up of course lol - but thats a very rare occurance imo

Prove it.
The papers have speculated on rooneys wages even in the same paper from 150k per week to 250k per week. No one knows who pays the tax on that in comparison to say Tevez.
Any time I saw rooneys wages in the papers it had for example £180k plus sponsorship and image rights making it to 250k.
Guesswork.
Of course if you can prove the figures I humbly apologise.
Because it's not about his kids, it's about money and 'respect' for tevez. Gets subbed a few times to rest him and he has a fit. Mancini runs the team and if he doesn't like it he should go.
Lets face it he wasn't best buds with fergie by the end. Claiming lack of respect etc.
Blokes a problem child.
I don't know if you could you know.
The only player that I can think of is Tevez that didn't want to play or United, I can't think of any Arsenal have had problems with except Gallas. Chelsea not so sure but I can't think of any off the top of my head.

So I was right in the first place?
All the back tracking the lot of ya...only joking but seriously I sort of saw this coming. Agent power
Were you, show us where you pre-empted this?
Who's back tracked?
When did you see this coming? let us all know.
Of course you can, using the same rumours as the ones everyone has accepted about RSC Lescock and co.
Van Nistelroy
Remember the fuss with Rio
Vidic is rumoured to always want away
Rumours about evra wanting to go to madrid.
Ronaldo clearly wanted away 12 months or more before he was allowed.
Henry wanted away from Arsenal
Overmars
Viera
The french pillock with the ponytail that went with Overmars
Fabregas would have left this year if Barca could have stolen the money to pay for him.
Adebayor
Can't remember about Hleb and flamini?
Cashley
The point is you can find paper talk for any clubs top players and especially fringe players wanting away?
Aye I suppose, seems to be every day with City though and for the record I didn't read past Lescock because it made me laugh so much
I agree it happens a lot with city but again I think it's for the growth and manager reasons. It will continue to happen because better players keep coming in and they have bought who ever wants the money.
Also buying midfielder after midfielder means there are always 20 others who are unhappy
Where as with Manu you have had a stable manager for so long you are not so used to a manger getting the boot and new ideas coming in.
I imagine you could look back at chelsea when they got a sudden influx of money and see how many buys they went through?
Did Chelsea ever have such a high profile **** up like Rooney or this though? This will get messy before it gets better. No doubt a statement from the Tevez camp about how the club is going to **** so he's off, and a statement from the club saying this is the last in what sounds like a list of attempts to try and get more money out of the club.
Certainly sounds like everyone (not just City fans) are standing well and truly in the clubs corner though. Will be very interesting to see where his career goes now, would have thought his first team position at City was now completely untennable.

Ahh yes of course. No wonder he's acting so cavalier with a multi million pound contract
Carlos Tevez speaks: "I wanted to leave in summer, but was convinced to return. Sadly, my feelings have not changed" #mcfc
More Tevez: "I hugely resent the management's suggestions that I have been unduly influenced by others." #mcfc

Once again it just goes to confirm just how big Jose was in Chelsea's success, City have tried to copy the blue print and just sign all the flavour of the months but because the management is rubbish it's all going a little pear shaped
City wont be anything without Tevez; Balotelli wants out also, Adebayor just isnt good enough for a title challenging side so that just leave Santa Cruz (always injured) and Jo (5th choice striker at the start of the season)
Makes you wonder if Silva will be on the way out also come the summer....

I've always thought that what City did was a dangerous game, they're attracting players based solely on money, and as soon as a footballer realises he's got enough to last him forever, it must be hard to get fully motivated to play your best. You buy mercenaries and they will act like one. I have sympathy with Tevez if his motivations are honourable (he quits football or at least moves back to his family to play), but still, going on strike is absurd, nobody forced him to sign the contract, and so he should play by the rules. Refusing to play is petulant and childish and since he's being so brash about it, it's surely making Man City's case extremely strong to the courts, what have they done wrong?
Then again, I can see them giving Liverpool £40m for Torres in January so there may be a silver lining
