Tevez

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

Would you?

 

 

Carlos Tevez has decided that it will be the "best solution" to leave Manchester United after reluctantly accepting that Sir Alex Ferguson wants to persist with Dimitar Berbatov and Wayne Rooney as his preferred strike partnership. Tevez, who started on the bench against Portsmouth, has attracted offers from Real Madrid and Internazionale but the Argentina forward also said he would consider signing for another English club.

 

dunno whether I'd like us to sign him

[Tosh]

He wants to play a load more games

 

Rafa would rotate him, no?

[Hassony]

we can do better

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

Eto'o

[Swipe]

He's been really average this season. In previous years he's looked the business, but he's been like a a headless chicken this season.

 

He does have talent, but he's not really the type of player we need.

 

And he ain't worth anything close to £30m

f***ing bargain compared to Berbatov (most assists in the league )

[Swipe]

Berbatov is a lazy c*** though. He was at Spurs and if anything he looks worse at United.

[Bailo]

Yes. Get him in. I'm not sure what he'd cost, but I'm not sure who we could do "better" with, without buying an out-and-out striker like Eto'o, who I can see being Keane-esque.

Jesus!!! Are you sure!

 

Eto'o would be an amazing signing.

[Bailo]

Jesus!!! Are you sure!

 

Eto'o would be an amazing signing.

But he's an out-and-out striker. Not a "behind-the-hole" striker, or a creator, or anything. A poacher. It means breaking the Gerrard-Torres partnership or shifting him out wide.

 

Tevez is a far more versatile player in any of the positions around the front 1, and can lead the line if Torres is out/rested.

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

Tevez won't cost anything like 30m now. 18 or so

[Bailo]

Get. Him. In. Now. Rafa.

[Barnesy_10]

Get. Him. In. Now. Rafa.

the Mancs would hate it if he came to us... much like the Heinze situation... There must be something about Argentinians.. I bet Masch could have a sneaky word, but something tells me that Tevez would bite our hands off to join us if we did go for him.

Eto'o can play anywhere across a front 3. He has done on several occasions for Barcelona, although his main position is as a No 9. I have no issue with signing Tevez, who would be a very good signing too, but to compare Eto'o to a Keane-esque signing is, imo, wrong.

[Sion]

Manc fans love Tevez. We should sign him just to piss them off.

The problem with Keane is that he wasn't good enough for us, eto is on a different level to him (or Tevez for that matter)

[sean]

Works hard, returns are decent but very top quality? I don't think so.

[carrafan]

True. But if he's not available or doesnt want to come to the northwest of England, then Tevez would be more than just a handy buy.

The thing with transfers is that sometimes it comes down to whose available. Rafa himself might have his wishlist but if we cant afford them, just having a wishlist of top players wont do it.

In which case Utd will sign him I guess.

 

Think he'd be a great buy personally. Really like his attitude, work rate and ability.

 

Get him in if he's under £20m.

[carrafan]

I cant see it. I think Rooney and Tevez are too similar and playing them both hampers the other.

 

 

They've brought those two Serbian wingers for 16 million and imo will spend money close season on a keeper, a right back and a midfielder. Even if Ronalda leaves, i cant see them keep Tevez. I could be wrong though, Ferguson knows what he's doing on most occasions.

[Woodsyla]

Really, that 4-6-0 that swept all comers aside last season played some of the best football I've seen in a long time. I've no idea why Ferguson signed Berbatov, all I can think is he knows Ronaldo is off shortly.

[stressederic]

Would you?

 

I wouldn't sleep with him, no.

 

And I'd rather we signed Eto'o

[Sion]

It's more a case of Tevez doesn't want to sign for untied than they don't want to pay the price. Though it's probably a bit of the two.

[Andy @ Allerton]

I think we've already got better at the club than Tevez.

 

Plus he's stupidly overpriced. We could buy two quality players for that.

[Benzo-13]

Get him in.

 

He's class.
