Roberto Mancini: Just say sorry, Carlos Tevez
SORRY STATE ... Roberto ManciniROBERTO MANCINI last night told Carlos Tevez: "It's easy to say sorry."
Manchester City's boss finally broke his five-week silence over Tevez's refusal to warm up in Munich.
And he hinted his former captain could have a future at the club if he apologises.
Mancini said: "We all make mistakes but it's important that we apologise.
"If we do then it's finished. As a player I always thought like this — and I told Carlos this 20 days ago.
"I think sorry is one of the easiest words to say. I don't know his agent but I think probably the people that stay around him don't give him good advice."
Asked whether Tevez could yet be welcomed back into the fold, Mancini said: "Well, he needs to say sorry first."
Sources close to Tevez last night declined to comment on Mancini's latest words.
The Argentinian striker stayed in Manchester while his team-mates jetted out to Spain for tonight's crucial Champions League tie with Villarreal.
City, who need a win to keep their hopes of reaching the knockout stages alive, welcome striker Mario Balotelli back after a three-game suspension.
Mancini added: "Playing with City will do Mario good. In the summer we had lots of interest from Italian clubs but we are not giving anyone away.
"One day he will return to Italy but not for a few years.
"Let's not forget he's still only 21 and it's not easy to be an icon at that age. But, technically, he does not have to envy anyone."

is an apology really going to settle it?
if so then tevez should. but then ego and pride is always something...
-
Tevez dun say sorry
go Sunderland
-
At this rate, he'd be lucky to be sold off to Geylang United.
-
I hope he pair up with Frederic Mendy
in Home United -
They are giving each other a way out and get down from the stage with some respect and not everybody loses face... lol.
City cannot expect to get the $40m to $50m value they want for him now and Tevez know he can leave in Jan for a super cut-price if he is still not happy... In other words, Mancini said Tevez will never play for City again may not be true cos Fifa rules is on Tevez side. A top player can leave if he hasn't played 10% of their last 60 matches and Tevez is said to have played only 5... lol.
Anyway, egos need to be rub it seems... left, right and centre... Top and bottom also... lol.

Why would he leave? Who can afford is 250,000 pounds per week salaries? LOL..
Anyway, the Man City Owner is so rich that losing 40-50millions pound is nothing.
It just a small rub. Nothing going to compare if Man City bag the EPL title.

$200,000 lah... And it's not just about the money too, cos with the Uefa new rule, they have to make sure it is used well or it will add to their already negative account books...

After he says sorry and when he decides not to sue anybody, quickly sell him off immediately.
Damn smart.
