Jovetic: Man City fans will love me

Stevan Jovetic is confident winning over Manchester City fans.

After struggling for fitness and form, the Montenegro ace also had to contend with rumours he was homesick.

But Jovetic said: "The problem was because I came to the club after the pre-season tour to South Africa, where they were working three times a day for two weeks.

"I was not training for Fiorentina, and I think that was the biggest problem.

"I had one problem, and then another, but that is the past and I don't want to think about the past.

"I just want to look forward, and hope we will win a lot of games until the end.

"I had a calf problem at first, then at Leicester I was in the squad and supposed to play, and I ate something.

"I had a temperature and was vomiting. I couldn't believe it was happening to me, but I just had to stay calm because there was nothing I could do.

"But I know my value and that the fans will love me."
