Tevez backing Mancini
Monday, December 6th, 2010Carlos Tevez insists he gets on well with Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini and gives him his full backing.
The relationship between the pair has been questioned and Tevez’s show of petulance at being subbed off late on in Saturday’s 1-0 win over Bolton did little to ease the speculation.
Mancini played down the spat immediately after the game stating he was happy with the player’s attitude in that he wanted to stay on the pitch until the end, something he then echoed on Sunday.
Tevez is a key player for City and the Argentine ace has now backed the Italian tactician, stating he was carrying an injury against Birmingham recently and understood why he was replaced.
The former West Ham marksman, who is suspended for the trip to face his former team-mates this weekend, has urged patience from City’s fans as there is a long way to go in the season.
