Believe
I couldn’t believe what I was watching when I saw Tevez being interviewed on an Argentine chat show. Almost every word he said would have sent a shiver through the heart of the loyal, adoring Manchester City fans who have worshipped the little maestro since he arrived at the club. They have continued to worship him even though he has more than once tried to leave and treated the club, and particularly the fans, with a lack of respect.
On this chat show Tevez said the following,
“There is nothing to do in Manchester. There are two restaurants. Everything’s small. It rains all the time, you can’t go anywhere. There comes a moment when you say, ‘where am I going to go with my family’, and you begin to feel bad. Of course you train, play, do things and when the family or friends come you feel bad. You can’t take them to the movies because they can’t understand anything. I will not return to Manchester, not for vacation or anything.”
Thanks
Well thanks for that Carlos! I’ve been to Manchester and I can confirm that there are an awful lot of things to do. Greater Manchester is a city of over two and a half million people. It is a vibrant place that has just about everything apart from a beach and the sea.
It has a thriving night life with some of the most famous nightclubs in the country. The music scene is known throughout the world and there are many thousands of restaurants, not just two!
If eating out, clubbing or music are not your thing and you prefer some culture, there are six well known art galleries containing works by the Italian and Flemish masters as well as local artist LS Lowry. There are also eight museums displaying just about anything and everything you could think of.
Orchestra
If you are not into the pop and rock that Manchester is famous for, maybe you could watch the two symphony orchestras and one chamber orchestra that are based in the city. If you don’t like that then you could always take in the opera at the opera house or visit one of the five large theatres in the city.
Of course, you could still be bored Carlos. The only other things I can think of are the MEN arena which is the biggest indoor arena in the country and the other major sporting venues such as the Old Trafford test cricket ground.
The Manchester international festival might be worth hanging around for as it is a very famous festival which would give you a little bit of everything.
Right
No, I think you are right Carlos. Manchester is boring and horrible. It has given you a home, shown you a huge amount of love and paid you an absolute fortune. Now you have decided to tell the city and its people to f**k off.
They would be better off without you.
