Yo back for more analysis on the recent soccer movements.
First of all, Happay Birthday to 2 of my best bro whose birthday is just a day apart (13/14 July)
Finally, the Carlitos saga has ended but not beautifully for me. A nice transfer for me would be like the C.Ron one with gratitudes thrown to towards one another. However, for Tevez it was like a break free which kind of reminded me the Ruud van Nistelrooy one. SAF can't keep his mouth closed and bid a good farewell and starts a conspiracy that it was Tevez himself who had already decided not to stay as early as January. For me, this was either the truth or a move to let the fans feel that he actually did enough to keep him.
I think all the die-hard fans can see for ourselves in all the last season's matches, Tevez has been treated somewhat unusually by being left on the bench more frequently compared to previous seaons without performing badly. I guess the cause was favouritism shown by SAF on Berbartov like what he always does by selecting Fletcher.
Well, enough of the cause for Tevez to leave, now like what I've said in previous post about moving to Man City, it was a bad bad decision. I'd rather him move to somewhere else. Let's talk about how he can perform with the team if he was playing first and whether he can play more frequently later.
Look at him in his first spell in BPL with West Ham Utd, little people know him and probably didn't had the chance to see him play too. For the matches he played in, he didn't really performed too well, just ok for me. Look at the midfield of West Ham at that time, not really good with the type that can provide him with good passes that create chances. He was the 'Hero' because he just ran and ran and ran and a touch from Lady Luck to make him score the crucial goal that saves West Ham from relegation.
Overrall performance for me is just average.
In the 2 years with Man Utd, no doubt that he performed way better than he was in West Ham. Why ? There was a great midfield with hell lots of great and precise passer that can create fantastic chances for him to complete with his finishing touch. Althought he too had some moments where he created goals all by himself.
Now at Man City, he is in a team some sort like West Ham Utd. Look at the midfield, pathetic. There is no good passer just midfielder which consist of the likes of Michael Johnson, Elano, Barry and Wright-Phillps. All these guys are those type that can either defend well or create chances for themselves. Perhaps this is not the important factor. I think it is the number of strikers that the team has. 9 Strikers in all! Robinho, Bojinov, Caicedo, Banjani, Santa Cruz, Evans, Bellamy and now Tevez. You tell me what are the chances to keep everyone happy ? Lol. Don't forget there is still Adebayor they are chasing.
2 senarios I can think of. One which is to sell Caicedo, Ban, Evans, Bellamy, Banjani and that leaves around 5 Strikers which is still sustainable with 4-3-3 formation. The other one would be that all of them are in the team and noise level of the rested players rise and Mark Hughes couldn't keep the cohesion in the team and he would be replaced by some big names manager. Probably Raneri ?
It's a bad move Carlitos...
