Carlos Tevez amounted in three years, probably the most feared fronttrio in the world, along with Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney.
Tevez, who comes from poor circumstances in Argentina, however, was not quite up to speed with the rest of the United squad, when it came to which cars you should drive in.
– For training in Manchester United, showed he (Rooney, ed.) up with a Ferrari or a Lamborghini. Everyone, even the worst player, came with a Ferrari.
– I arrived in the Audi, which the club gave to you, and then I was bullied by all of them together, as if it was a Fiat 600. I began to ask what was wrong, but the crazy Rooney just said ‘Take my Lamborgini’, said Tevez to ESPN.

Tevez was particularly pleased for Rooney’s friendship in the United the time, and it was not only that the englishman gave him cars to millions.
I identified myself with him, because of the place he came from, there was a poor area in Liverpool. He fought always for the ball, as if it were the last. He played like me. It affected me personally, I saw myself reflected in him.
