Carlos Tevez: Neil Warnock blasts Manchester City rebel

30 September 2011 11:54
QPR boss Neil Warnock has weighed into the Carlos Tevez debate by declaring: 'The sooner he leaves the country, the better.'[LNB] Warnock also called for FIFA to allow clubs to slap long bans on players who show the kind of disobedience towards their managers.[LNB] Making his point: Warnock has blasted the Manchester City striker [LNB]Manchester City striker Tevez has been suspended for a fortnight after he refused to come off the bench in his club's Champions League defeat at Bayern Munich on Tuesday night. [LNB]Warnock has no love for Tevez, who was at the centre of the third-party ownership saga four years ago that saw West Ham keep their Barclays Premier League status at the expense of his own Sheffield United. [LNB]'The sooner he leaves the country, the better,' Warnock said. 'I can't see it being sorted by him staying. [LNB] Warming the bench: Tevez refused to come on as a substitute in Tuesday's defeat as Mancini rallies the City troops (below)[LNB] 'Within a few months, he'll be kissing another badge.'[LNB] Warnock unsurprisingly dismissed suggestions he'd be interested in taking Tevez on loan. [LNB] Suspended: Tevez has been banned for two weeks [LNB]Revealing he had encountered a similar instance of disobedience at one of his former clubs, he added: 'The top authorities like FIFA have got to come up with something. [LNB]'Because, quite honestly, two weeks' ban is a disgrace for an offence like that. [LNB]'You should be banned until January because a manager has no option but to say that you won't play for the club again.[LNB]'You can't do that because the PFA would cry foul on that and get all the solicitors involved. 'So FIFA have to come up with an answer.'[LNB] Warnock feared Tevez would ultimately escape serious punishment, saying: 'When somebody's paid such a large amount, to even think about what he did, it's so disrespectful, irrespective of the problems you have with managers. [LNB]'Because every manager has problems with players. It's like having 35 kids to look after and have a party outside. You're going to have problems. [LNB]'But some players think that they're the bees knees and everything should develop around them. [LNB]'Unfortunately, I think players hold all the aces. [LNB]'When you're paying a player up to a quarter of a million pounds per week, it's difficult to say, "We'll pay him for a couple of years and make him stew in the reserves". [LNB]'It sounds good for the press. 'But, in reality, you're not going to chuck all those millions of pounds away when you're running a business.[LNB]'He'll come out with a two-week fine, two-week ban, and that's all, irrespective of the campaign to do this, to do that.' [LNB]  United they stand! Fergie backs rival Mancini over Tevez scandal I thought Fergie was messing me about, so I can sympathise with Tevez, claims Scholes Manchester City players claim they 'didn't hear' Tevez's refusal to play at Bayern MunichI'd love to work with Tevez again, says Newcastle boss Pardew [LNB] [LNB]
