Moving to a rival club: How big a sin is it?

3. Carlos Tevez

Fee: Involved a complex situation of ownership of player, with Corinthians, West Ham, and his agent staking their claim. The situation was resolved as Manchester City took complete ownership.

After some big performances for Manchester United, fans regularly displayed banners of “Fergie, sign him up permanently” to persuade Sir Alex. But for some unknown reasons, a player who declared he wanted to stay turned down the option, but instead chose to join the Manchester City revolution, thereby incurring the wrath of United fans. His latest “RIP Fergie” act dosen’t help either.

Trophies won at Manchester United:

2 Premier League titles, 1 League Cup, 1 Community Shield, 1 UEFA Champions League, 1 Club World Cup

Trophies won at Manchester City:

1 FA Cup, 1 Premier League title, 1 Community Shield

Verdict:

Success – Tevez may have made the right call in moving to Man City as last season’s triumph clearly signals a shift in power. He may contribute towards winning lot more titles with Manchester City, depending on whether or not he again takes a mid season vacation.
