Tevez's dream team

[lsd]

Foubd this interesting when he named what team he would like to line up for his farewell game when he retires as he doesn't appear to have any bad feelings on his United days.

[GenZRed]

Not a bad team that. I wouldn't have bet against him not naming a single former United player he played with but fair play to him.

 

[Revan]

5 United players (technically 6, but he played with Heinze only for Argentina). Interestingly, nothing from City, not even Aguero (he has Rooney as main striker)

 

[duffer]

Heinze > Vidic, Chiellini, Ayala or Kompany.

Ok Carlos, Ok.

 

[Still ill]

No West Ham???

 

[duffer]

No West Ham???

Evra.

 

[shahzy]

So who's the opposition team that's about to be best against Messi and ronaldo

 

[united_99]

A bit surprised Park hasn’t been included as Tevez, Evra and Park were best mates at United.

 

[Wednesday at Stoke]

5 United players (technically 6, but he played with Heinze only for Argentina). Interestingly, nothing from City, not even Aguero (he has Rooney as main striker)

I count 7

Ronaldo
Rooney
Pogba
Scholes
Heinze
Rio
Evra

 

[Wittmann45]

Wait, didn't Tevez play with Chiellini and Kompany (not to mention Vidic)? My opinion on Heinze is not exactly objective but that selection is pretty glaring. If he wanted to pick a CB at international level, maybe he could have picked Demichelis who actually played CB

I think Tevez has said Rooney was his favourite player to play alongside. He loved Scholes, too.

Man, I wish he had stayed in 2009.

 

[lsd]

Really surprised he didn't name any City players as i thought he rooted for City over United. Maybe not

 

[Revan]

I count 7

Ronaldo
Rooney
Pogba
Scholes
Heinze
Rio
Evra

Not counting Heinze and Pogba cause they were not at United when he played with them. To be fair, forgot Pogba totally.

Heinze played CB for Argentina (initially with Ayala, and then with Demichelis). I actually think he was pretty good for them.

 

[Spark]

Think he rooted for loads of money over slightly less loads of money. Not that I can knock him for that in fairness. City being able to afford a PR agency when he joined probably made it seem like he was way happier/preferred City.

Was gutted when he left United.

 

[Annihilate Now!]

Pretty sure I've heard before that Tevez was a very popular guy in the dressing room.

 

[Lay]

I saw something similar a week ago when he took himself out and put Park in.

 

[galwayfa]

Tevez was brilliant, an absolute ass hole, but we missed him

 

[Mainoldo]

He was good for us! I get he wanted to move to Liverpool but Heinze was a beast.

 

[Green_Red]

Thats some team

 

[Revan]

He was good for us! I get he wanted to move to Liverpool but Heinze was a beast.

He was good for us, but mostly as LB. Then he started getting often injured, and eventually, Evra got his place.

For Argentina, he mostly played as CB.

 

[Mainoldo]

Yeah he played the odd game there for us though. I’m sure against AC Milan he was CB.

 

[Inter Yer Nan]

He was good for us! I get he wanted to move to Liverpool but Heinze was a beast.

First season he was but after that not so much. Injuries took his prime. His positional sense was poor too I felt.

 

[KiD MoYeS]

He won the Champions League and Club World Cup with United and never got close to it with City, makes sense he would have a lot of United players in his team.

 

[FootballHQ]

Ibarra played at Boca and Porto didn't he?

Tevez main beef in the end was with Fergie so surprised they didn't ask him to name a coach for the dream team as that would've been the headline.

 

[RooneyLegend]

Bet he regrets leaving us for that not so big rich club next door.

 

[Dr. Dwayne]

What a lineup. It seems clear he loved playing for us more than anyone else.

 

[Machine Elements]

Loved Tevez when he was here and was devastated when we opted against signing him. Getting Berbatov the year before ruined everything in terms of playing style. We were playing the most progressive football in Europe with 4-6-0 in 2007-2008. Ronaldo-Rooney-Tevez trio was a joy to watch. It's a shame both him and Ronaldo left a year later. Tevez was a pressing machine chasing the opponent player like a bulldog. He would've been much more valuable today imo.

 

[Big Ben Foster]

That's a hell of a team TBF. Would've been great to watch with all the players in their prime.

 

[Infordin]

Wait, didn't Tevez play with Chiellini and Kompany (not to mention Vidic)? My opinion on Heinze is not exactly objective but that selection is pretty glaring. If he wanted to pick a CB at international level, maybe he could have picked Demichelis who actually played CB

Or Ayala, who was also an Argentinian CB and actually world class.

 

[Red_toad]

No West Ham???

More importantly no Ciddy players

 

[TrustInOle]

Where's the guy with the usual update so we all remember who Tevez really was?

 

[Isotope]

I loved this chubby bastard when he was here.

 

[Caesar2290]

Really surprised he didn't name any City players as i thought he rooted for City over United. Maybe not

Just like Pogba, his issue was with Sir Alex. Even so I'm surprised to see so many United players on his list. Rio and Scholes are definitely a surprise for me.

 

[MadDogg]

I think Tevez has said Rooney was his favourite player to play alongside. He loved Scholes, too.

Man, I wish he had stayed in 2009.

It was always obvious when they played together than Tevez was almost in awe of Rooney. It was like Tevez thought Rooney was basically a better version of himself (which to be honest he was at the time), and there were numerous times where Tevez would choose to play the ball to Rooney even when Ronaldo was in a better position

 

[archiebald]

On the bench because he'd rather be off golfing instead.

 

[stevoc]

I assume someone had to write this down for him.

 

[Berbasbullet]

He should have been a united legend, oh well, wasn’t to be.

No the club agreed to pay the fee to sign him. But he chose to go to City for twice the fee and wages, which had more than likely been agreed shortly after Abu Dhabi bought City in 2008. Why this myth refuses to die i have no idea.

Surprisingly no. I think there was an article a few years back where in his house he still had framed United kits up but none of City. Now with this I think he definitely preferred his time at United. Also had a great relationship with Evra and Park.
