If I was Carlos Tevez

I have been thinking about this for a day or two and finally decided that it is time to put pen to paper so to speak.

There are two sides to every story but in this instance I am willing to believe Mancini and Platt.  Now before I start, as many of you know I am a MUFC fan but on this occassion I feel I have to talk about the Citeeeeeeeh fiasco.

As I see it Tevexz was warming up with a view to being brought on in the game.  THe manager then decided to replace Dzeko with another player and not Tevez.  Tevez sat down.  Crossed his arms and started to sulk.  I know Tevez sulking is hard to believe but i think he did.

Mr Mancini then asked Tevez to get ready - at which point Tevez said no and refused to come on.

Apologies if one or two of my facts are wrong but this is how I see it.

Now a different scenario.

Simon is at work and busily doing his job.  He suddenly decides I am going to sulk now.

Boss comes in and asks Simon to do a job URGENTLY because the person doing it before could not finish it.

Simon is sulking and wont do it because he wanted to be asked first.

The result
Tevez gets a 2 week suspension and a weeks wage fine and will be back playing soon.

Simon gets sacked - loses his house - wife divorces him - ends up on the street as a wino and has to beg steal or borrow to survive.

Moral - footballers live on a different planet to the rest of us and it really is about time that someone stood up to the overpaid prima donnas.
