Carlos Tevez needs to be patient.
It was Man Utd who fought to get him to Old Trafford. They are now putting up the money to unshackle him from the consortium. Yes, it is a tidy sum of money but after a dithering a bit David Gill has come around.
Frankly, if Man Utd had lost the Premiership with Tevez sitting on the bench, I would have expected him to leave, vindicated. With Ronaldo being entertained by Real and question marks about Berbatov’s work ethic, Tevez will be even more essential. The fans want it and Sir Alex seems to have acknowledged his vulnerability, a bit belatedly in a “Baby come back” sort of call. The benefits of playing in a club with established CL credentials will prove irresistible.
