lol Boca can't handle losing. First tackle looked like a yellow imo, 2nd one maybe yellow maybe red...can't tell with the rest as they're not really shown, just seems a stupid game with the ref dying to flash the red. Nevermind just saw the massive play acting by Tevez for the last one as well, fml.

Indeed. Playing in Europe is a lot more privileged than playing in Argentina. Tevez should have known that, but he's just Tevez.

Cheeky late bid for him? ;)

Though, I doubt he's interested in ever returning to the country he so desperately tried to get away from.

I thought about it. :P

I don't know if he'd want to return. Tevez is erratic, but he's always up for a challenge. Even if Tevez would be on, I doubt Wenger would want to bring him here. Would give us a massive boost though.

Its not a bad idea in theory because he's not exactly past it. Was one of the best players in Serie A last season if not the best Serie A player. he is a timebomb thought since hes been playing for 12-13 years and his body wont be in pristine condition.

In reality he doesn't like England so its a disaster waiting to happen.

What i love about Tevez is how old school he is when he plays, the guy really is a creature just created by nature only to play football, guy was in England for 7 years and barely learned a word of English. Alexis is similar in that there really isn't too much going on in that brain apart from just playing football.

This is quality:
Dani Osvaldo retired from soccer so he could play in a band

Dani Osvaldo is back to doing what he does best, which is whatever he damn well pleases. The latest reports out of Italy indicate that Osvaldo has spurned a contract with Serie A side Chievo so that he can instead focus his playing in a band.

Because of course he did.

At a reported two-years at €2.5 million or one year at €1.5, it's not like the contract was for peanuts, either. But this is the modus operandi for Osvaldo, who, with 12 clubs in his 11-year career, has a travel history that'd make Carmen Sandiego blush. Questionable decision-making defines the 30-year-old's career, to put it lightly.

There was the time he punched then-Roma teammate Erik Lamela because the Argentine failed to find him with a pass in 2011. Or the time in 2013 he squashed his World Cup hopes after ripping Aurelio Andreazzoli on Twitter for being "incompetent" and suggest the Roma caretaker manager go "celebrate with Lazio." Then there's the time he attacked Jose Fonte with a head butt during Southampton training.

His latest run-in came at Boca Juniors, where the Italian was busted by manager Guillermo Barros for smoking in the changing rooms during the Copa Libertadores quarterfinals this summer. Somehow, Chievo felt like Osvaldo deserved another shot and offered him a contract, but Osvaldo turned it down -- so he can play in a band.

They don't call him "El Loco" for nothing.
