Carlos Tevez has been rocked by a health scare - we take a look back at his time in Manchester and the controversy it caused
Carlos Tevez 's hospital dash after suffering from chest pains has brought well wishes from across Manchester, where he played with passion and purpose for both clubs.
Sir Alex Ferguson delivered many a scornful assessment during his career but this scowling indictment in 2009 was his fiercest attack on City. The noisy neighbours were starting to grow louder and show their teeth a year on from Sheikh Mansour’s takeover. That Tevez poster was located three miles away in Deansgate and perhaps signalled the start of the power shift in Manchester. City boss Mark Hughes played down the gesture as harmless fun between rival fan bases but his former United boss did not concur.
United lifted the League Cup and lost out on the title by a point to Chelsea the following season while City failed to finish in the top four. The 2010/11 season would be a landmark campaign for the Blues. Some fans wanted the Argentine gone and a new Tevez poster was unfurled in the away end at Blackburn Rovers in October 2011, this time reading ‘Tevez Out’. He eventually apologised and played a major part in the final months of the dramatic 2012 title-winning season.
