Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez will begin to find the back of the net very soon according to his teammate Emmanuel Adebayor.

The Togo international believes his Argentine striker partner will find confidence, especially after his good second-half performance against Liverpool on Saturday, and then the goals will flow merely because of his quality.

"We all know how good Carlos is," Adebayor said.

"He was 100 per cent professional when he came on, fighting for the team in defence, keeping the ball and making it easier for me.

"People may be asking why he has not scored a lot of goals, but he's one of the best around.

"He's got the desire and we know what a talented player he is, he just needs a bit more confidence to start scoring goals."
