Nigel de Jong has taunted Manchester United by declaring Manchester City teammate Carlos Tevez a better player than Wayne Rooney. The two clubs clash this week in the Carling Cup semifinal. And De Jong said: “Rooney is a great player, but I have to say that I would rather have Tevez. “It isn’t just about the goals he is scoring at the moment. Even before that his work rate and determination for the team made him a special player for us. Now the goals have started to come, I’d have to say that he’s the best forward in the league at the moment. “Rooney is a fantastic player as well. But, for me, Carlos has the edge. “I know people will think I have to say that because he is a team-mate but Carlos is on fire at the moment. I wouldn’t swap him for anyone else.” De Jong added: “I don’t know what Tevez’s situation was at United – and I don’t care. He is a City player now and I don’t know whether Ferguson regrets that he didn’t stay at United. I hope he’s regretting it on Tuesday night. “Situations change. Maybe the situation at United was different at the end of last season than it is now. Ferguson obviously felt he didn’t need Carlos. Perhaps he has changed his mind now. “We gave Carlos an opportunity and he has taken it. All I can say is I am glad he is playing with me and not against me. “Will he try harder against United? That’s impossible because Carlos is a player who gives everything in every match.” |

Yep exactly. Nigel is a smart bloke though, can you believe a 24 year old Dutch lad has just spoken all of those words fluently without translation? Absolute top man.

GARY NEVILLE insists Manchester United were right to get rid of Carlos Tevez because he was overpriced. The Reds balked at a £25million asking price after the Argentine had spent two years on loan at Old Trafford. Now the striker, 25, is in red-hot form for rivals Manchester City and they meet tonight at Eastlands in the first leg of the Carling Cup semi-finals. But United's club captain agreed with boss Alex Ferguson that at the end of last season the figures just did not stack up. Neville said: "The manager over the years has made many decisions with regard to players coming and going - and he has almost always been proved correct. "Over a period of 20 years he may have got one or two wrong, and I think he has admitted that himself, but he knows exactly what he's doing and he understands when a player's time is up. I can't disagree with his decision on Tevez. He was a good player for us but, if the financial demands are too big, then that's just the way it goes. "Other good players have left this club in the past, it's not the first time it's happened. "We have the best manager in the world at putting teams together. He's done it successfully for 20 years. There have not been many people who have questioned him over the years and been proved right." |

Whenever Homer makes these threads of Neville a picture of Scholes pops into my head of when news broke about Tevez's dirty home. Scholes calling the bloke and animal and a fucking nob and other things ![]() Tevez is one of those cunts who constantly smells like a wet dog and a cunt that annoys you with his voice and you want to punch.

The next journalist that speaks to Neville needs to ask him whether he thinks Berbatov was overpriced and whether he thinks it was a mistake signing him or not. |

Tevez clearly isn't better than Rooney and i don't seriously believe anyone thinks so. He's just on very good form at the moment. De Jong is hardly going to come out and call Rooney better is he? Just like no United player would say it about Tevez. Pointless thread. |

Tevez's reputation is based on scoring important goals. Of course this is important hence them being important goals but it has had people overrate his actual ability too much. His form is impressive atm but I doubt he will keep it up and no way would I rather have him than Rooney. |
