Sir Alex Ferguson explained one of the reasons why Manchester United did offer Carlos Tevez a new contract was the Argentinian’s plans to retire from football.
“Tevez told us he was only going to play for four more years,” he said. “If we had signed him on a five-year contract knowing that he was going to quit in four, there would have been no re-sale value for us.”
With Tevez desperately looking for a move away from Manchester City, a spokesperson has been quick to deny any plans of retirement. Despite living in England for five years, Tevez still can’t speak English, meaning someone has been employed to speak on his behalf.
“At no time did he discuss retiring with the Manchester United management and Mr Ferguson has not mentioned this at any time before,” a spokesman said. “In fact Carlos feels he is capable of playing for a further eight years and though he has been in the form of his life, he feels he is only going to get better in the coming years.”
It is of course understandable that the Tevez camp would want to play down retirement talk, with them looking for a club to match City’s hilarious £50m valuation. Who is going to pay stupid money for a player who plans to retire soon? However, they probably should have pulled the plug on Tevez’s prior interviews, in which he has repeatedly talked about his retirement plan.
July 27th 2008: “At various times I’ve told myself that I want to retire at 28. I will only stay in Europe for a maximum of another four years. Life is very different here from Argentina – even the restaurants close earlier. If you’re not with your family things get difficult.”
November 13th 2009: “It crosses my mind to hang up my boots if we win the World Cup. It’s complicated, there’s my family, the desire to return to Boca Juniors. I’m keen to get a bit of calm. I’ve won a lot. Football has saturated me. I’m a little tired of so much football, so much football. I want to enjoy my family a bit. “
August 13th 2010: “There is only a little time remaining before I retire. It is very difficult to play football if you are not happy. Every day I have less will to continue playing in Europe and to carry on playing football. I will be there for two or three more years and then I will think about heading back to Argentina. For the last year, I haven’t lived with my daughters. They are growing up and I’m getting worn down. After returning from South Africa, I thought about quitting football, but I have a large family and now I have to continue. Football doesn’t make me as happy or as fulfilled as before. It becomes difficult to play like this.”
October 11th 2010: “I have been playing many games this season, and my body is feeling it. I am tired. I started to play when I was really young and I have always fought so much but now I’m feeling the effort. I’m an old guy now, and I started to think about some stuff. For example, I am less tolerant as a person today than I was a few years ago. Then I think – what happens if I quit football as long as I am okay in my life? When I talk about quitting, I mean quitting football, not just the national team. But at the moment I still don’t know if this is going to be in one month, one year, three or five years. I have the idea of quitting in my mind. Maybe one of these days, I will just wake up and say no more football.”

Tevez is a cunt.
Don’t feed the troll please….

Wait, is Fergie saying that we DIDN’T offer him a new contract? Didn’t we say we offered him a deal but he turned it down?
http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/m/man_utd/8110740.stm
Are we all surprised! er no. He’s an argentinian and we were once allies until they invaded the Falklands.
I wouldn’t trust an argie if he said he had the winning lottery numbers and all it was going to cost me was a pound. Heinze was another back stabbing arsehole. We all knew what Citeh were getting into…..
Welcome To Manchester…..we knew it wasn’t going to be long. Bye bye troll.
The Kettlenecked Troll isn’t all there.

Fergie knows best
Who’s that TWAT!!! from Argentinaaaa
Who’s that MONEY GRABBING WHORE!!!
You all know the rest…
@James21 – ‘Kettlenecked’ is a bit harsh, isn’t it? Lol
The troll goes where he’s told when he’s told and how he’s told. It may not be officially on paper any more , but owned is owned, and a whore by any other name
Not worth the page space or the attention he so craves. Fuck this judas little cunt.
The neverending Tevez saga……
Cunting cunt (TM to King Eric) of the highest order.
Lol @ tevez
RPate189. Nah nothing is too harsh for that numpty. Got a picture of him on the mantlepeice to keep the kids away from the fire.
HOW TO GET A HUGE PAYDAY
1.Find some fancy-named South America player e.g Lorenzo or something close to that and sign him up
2.Make sure he’s flamboyant(a Mohawk hairstyle preferably) and has sensational goal celebrations
3.Post a few well edited videos of him on YouTube
4.Now wait for the transfer window.
5.Feed stories to both the local tabloids and the english ones,preferably the Daily Mirror, linking him to Real Madrid, Barcelona, United or Chelsea, insert a few quotes from him saying he’s determined to stay at his current club but moving to United has always been his dream,and make his buyout clause ridiculously high.
6.Within a week you should have a 30 million pound bid from Man City.
The Carlos Tevez Lean, Mean Grilling Mmachine.
He liked it so much, he put his head on it

It’s not football, but it’s off-season.
I love how our friend Kings sums up things perfectly with just 2 words…… Brilliant
Is there even one club he’s left who didn’t want his head on a spike after?
He’s a pretty good looking man considering what he’s like on the inside.
Allies? the cunts killed more of us with their corned beef than their troops did in the Falklands.
The guy is a jerk! Doesnt know what he wants! Money? Football or Family?
http://allaboutunited.com/news/we_didn_t_sign_tevez_because_he_wanted_quit/2011-07-24-15
With no football to watch this time of the year, my internet history mostly just reads teenage brazilian, football or fanny my wife gets just as pissed off
CedarsDevil – Thanks my friend. I wonder how our mate Andy Townsend is.
Kings
Muted I hope!
£50M for that little melty-necked cunt? Lol. Good luck with that one
Fergies comments show real intent. Screw this manager, and you will rue the day!
CedarsDevil – Ha. Like it mate. I hope the Madrid folk have caught up with him and slit his throat.
if Carlos Tevez is so brilliant and so much of a game changer why hasn’t he been bought?
Enough said it’s his fucking attitude coupled with that arrogance coupled with his unfaithfulness that teams are walking away from him – and when city took the piss out of us for signing a player that was never ours since he was on loan – well the shit has hit the fan what do they say now?
They deserve each other
off he goes to inter. even further away from his beloved argentina.
cunt.
I think troll is the perfect word to use when describing Carlos Tevez.
From the HP universe, “A Troll is a magical creature of prodigious strength and immense stupidity. They are dangerously violent and incredibly aggressive, and then engage in unpredictable behaviour.” (You will be seeing more of these until my HP obsession dies.)
Amazingly enough, the description fits perfectly with Tevez with the exception of height.
Anyways, in all seriousness, I think Tevez is a grade A cunt, but he is also someone whose career has been destroyed by the worst kind of parasites known the human beings – Agents. Unless FIFA and UEFA bring in tighter control over the amount of say agents have in football, there is nothing to be done I am afraid.
Kings
At least they should have broken his nose, perhaps he would not be an ugly fuck anymore!
@Sparkz
SAF doesn’t say that we didn’t offer him a contract. I suspect what he is alluding to is the way it seemed the club dragged it’s feet. The reports after his first season were that the deal was close and would have be signed in the coming weeks. I suspect that it was Tevez comment about retirement that then saw it get dragged out till the last minute as such comments would make his transfer fee and wages seem even steeper
@jesus
rolf at melty neck.. i was thinking he is related to freddy krugger!!…
little fker needs his comeuppance!!!…
I can safely sum it up like this:
He will do anything necessary to satisfy his ego, that includes lying, trolling, and being thick.
The Sneijder war is over. Moratti has said, he will stay for another year at least.
It was good, to dream for a while, but it’s done.
Bugger off Cedars!
You won this one, but we’ll meet again my friend…
Balaji I have just realised that I have no trolls in my story
Having read your description of trolls I’m a little excited about putting them in
Balaji have no fear
Charlie Cup and The Guardian of Time hopefully should allay your HP cravings – when I’m finished with it I’ll send it to you so you can read it and tell me how I’ve done
Deal?
Kebabs for all on me and Costas, let the party begin…….
hahahahahahaha………… The Anti wee Wes clique wins the war….
Bow to Optimus Cedars for calling it
We tried willie we really tried mate but it seems that Cedars has his people in very high places.
Our time shall come one day…
Cedars
One day me and willie will have you lol
And who knows something still might happen!
“Should he stay? I ask myself that too. But I hope he will stay,” said Moratti.
http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11667_7050666,00.html
MG
Fight the Cedars at your own peril!
^… also “So it seems to me that there are many rumours but scarce money.” ^
Oh dear, I see your agent smartalex still clutching onto hope!
My link at 19:53 is actually 4 days old. I am sorry, especially to CedarsDevil and Costas
smartalex
So Moratti is saying if the money comes knocking at his door and Wesley wants to go it’s on?
willie wait we might be back on again!
Cedars I retract my comments – Show me the money Moratti says!
Aaaaaargh!
@MG, I’d take that offer up in a heartbeat buddy. You’re on.
@willie, You’re wrong. The battle is over. The war isn’t until September 1st.
smartalex no worries – it’s all a game as long as Moratti still feels that way today it’s still on.
Optimus Cedars we are coming
Let’s Roll Wesley baby!
Balaji
We’re on then
Funny how this thread turned from Tevez to Wesley again
Get that Sneijder to read this bloody blog and he’ll get it!
MG – See how quick Cedars fell into my trap? Ha ha
MG, thanks! Moratti has said “many rumours but scarce money.”
Posturing on both sides, this should lead to a fair deal being wrought.
moratti has said nothing
don’t give a fuck about tevez so i’m gonna pass on making a comment about him. The Joey Fucking Barton fiasco is one thats got my tail up however.
How on Gods green earth anyone thinks we can’t go wrong signing him is beyond me. I couldn’t give a rats ass what he gets up to so his checkered past has fuck all to do with it. Quality is the word here, and the boy ain’t got quality. I’m sure he’s good enough for Newcastle and Ingurland but i don’t want him anywhere close to the United dressing room, maybe sobbing in the away dressing room at OT after we give them a good hiding. anything else, thanks but no Fucking thanks
Joey Barton? For fucks sake. we may as well go get fucking Djemba Djemba back and ask him to do a job
smartalex
So what Moratti is saying is nothing less than 35 million anything more will be a blessing but 35 will do
willie
Let’s get them and Roll
A war we will win
Fell into the trap you say hey? Poor deluded souls……… Party time is on the way buggers
The battle lines have been drawn on the ROM
What fun we are going to have
Moratti hasn’t said anything. NOTHING for a few days. No links, no news stories, no Moratti comments today at all. One pleb on twitter said something to wind people up and it has obviously worked. Announcent on wednesday, FACT.
I consider Carlos Tevez more of a Legend than David Beckham.
Cedars I promise I’ll buy you a big bottle of bubbly when we sign Wes
And promise to sign it too
“He was impressive,” said boss Sir Alex Ferguson. “He is always handling shots and saving well. Technically he is very good. When they scored the first goal I thought he could have come out more but when I looked at it again he had absolutely no chance. Overall, he was great today.”
Well done David! Welcome to United!
Edwin who? Oh yes, it’s been a while since I thought of him.
That bugger of a double agent always gets me, I will still prevail though!
A phaRS, an absolute farce.
Bad move
The Flying whiskey knows.
Anyway Cedars
How are you doing buddy and how is that weather of yours? – surprisingly it’s been beautiful today in Blighty – better say that quietly before it starts raining again and makes life a misery!
AlphaRS
What the fuck are you talking about?
For the truth about all this, take a look at this fantastic interview with Kia Joorabchian:
http://agentoffergie.blogspot.com/2011/07/merking-kia.html
The Fly seems very confident the WS deal is done,mabe that’s why Sir Alex is saying no more signings,welcome wee Wes,welcome
You’ll never take me alive Cedars!
I want the Bartman to sign now.
Just to see some of the faces, would be worth it lol.
A little like this.
Is the fly, David Gill?
think its twitter info,obviously different info to the pleb winding people up.
MG
Doing well my friend, too hot these days but thank God for AC!!
Someone put the kettle on, it’s home time for T.
Willie
Who said anything about getting you alive?
in other news Uruguay has scored. Please God let Paraguay score. I’ve got a date tonight with the model who claimed to run around naked if Paraguay won
I’d love United to sign Suarez lol. That ones for you slim.
@slim: unfortunately, game over on that one mate, by the looks of it!
@willierednut
c’mon mate don’t give me a heart attack. lol
@Mahesh
it looks that way doesn’t it, ah well
‘Armed with a CV and DVD James Lonsdale used his initiative and found out where Sir Alex Ferguson lived, and had the nerve to knock on the Cheshire mansion of the United gaffer and ask for a trial.’
http://www.skysports.com/story/0,,12028_7055599,00.html
He played today.
slim, perhaps he’ll dance for you anyway.
@smartalex: that was a nice story mate. what football should be all about!
Welcome to the Starlight Ballroom, I’m Cyril Sneer…
*we-oh, we-oh, we-oh-oh-oh*
*we-oh, we-oh, we-oh-oh-oh*
Fergie’s tryi’ to sign wee Wes
Doing his best, to make him a red
It’s tough, so tough
He’s the best to take over from Scholes
He’s better than Shark Face, he makes and scores goals
For fun, mmm, for fun
Gill says they’ve got to sort out the image rights
The bitters offer more but Wes knows that they’re shite
It’s 35 million and that’s a lot
But for Wes… we’ll give it a shot!
Ohhhhhhhh, we’re half way there
Oh-oh, livin’ on a prayer
If he comes, it’s 20 I swear
Oh-oh, livin’ on a prayer
@smartalex
perhaps. i’ll take anything she offers to be honest
@slim
Best not to turn her down, it would seem so ungrateful!
@Mahesh – a great story! A United story.
@slim, She told the same thing during the World Cup. She stripped even though Paraguay did not do anything of note in the WC. So, you still have your date I guess.
@Balaji Sivaraman
yipeee. its on. whew what a relief
Congratulations to Cedars and Costas. You guys knew it all along. The rest of us, well, we dared to dream…
Strung along, more like.
Ah Diego Forlan! Legend!
Congrats to our boy Diego for leading Uruguay to the Copa America. What a talisman he turned out to be.
Fuck Tevez,
alpha rs ul make friends around here with those comments.
Is sneijder in yet?
Oh No Looks like my Booty Call Larissa Riquelme won’t be stripping down for you lads
Slim – Back off, My girl, I call dibs, sloppy seconds & Leftovers
Jose Enrique wants out of Newcastle – http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11661_7060157,00.html
Fergie Fergie Sign him up ! Make him a Centre Midfielder
Mr. 100
The topic is Tevez, and three people here can’t resist talking about the Falklands, and Argies and calling them cunts?
Well, forgive the language but these people are grade A cunts and assholes themselves. I’m going to guess that they’re not too smart either and I hope that I never come across such scumbags anywhere near Old Trafford.
We want the best players to want to play here and to feel welcome. If they are also princes (like Chicharito), then that is even better. If we allow scumbags to pass comment without challenge, then it will reflect poorly on all of us.
Tevez is a mercenary… Five years in England and he can not speak english? On my first year living in the border with USA I started to have conversations with the americans… I laught a lot when he failed the penalty against Uruguay in Copa America.
I’m sure AlphaRS meant Tevez was a Legendary first-class canting cant.
But ahead of first-class is the pilot’s seat – which goes to Heinze for actually suing the club.
I wonder whether this will make SAF hands off Argentinians for all his remaining years. Pretty sure he’ll be with some form of influence even after he steps back from the frontline and into the command centre.
He just needs to learn from what Singapore’s oldest politician is doing.
Evra said: “I’m very close to Carlito and even when he was playing for United when he was 23 or 24, he told me that another two years in the UK and he would be back in Argentina.
“I said, ‘Carlito, you’re young’. But he told me, ‘Yeah, but I’ve won everything. I want to go back closer to my family and play in my country’.
“Now I know he wasn’t lying. He’s doing what he told me three years ago, and I’m not surprised at all.”
http://www.click-manchester.com/sport/manchester-city/1213799-patrice-evra-backs-manchester-united-boss-ferguson-over-tevez-exit-claim.html
Even Tevez’ friends know he’s a liar.
Did someone say Kebabs? Keep tevez away from the kebab house cause he may shove his head into the grills
Why doesn’t this chewing gum necked cunt just fuck off back to Argentina and leave ua all alone. He’s a horrible lying cheating bastard and i’m sure i’m n ot the only one when i say i can’t wait to see the fucking back of him.
STOP TALKING ABOUT IT AND JUST FUCK OFF HOME BINBAG NECK.
