Manchester City ace Carlos Tevez is delighted with his Barclays Player of the Month award.
Tevez has been instrumental in Roberto Mancini's smooth arrival as manager at City.
He told City's website, "It's nice to get awards like this and the one from the City fans as well, but as long as the team does well, that's all that matters.
"I'm very happy with my form, but what's more important is that the team has been playing well recently. I did not start against Middlesbrough but the team that the Manager picked did as well as any of the other teams he has chosen.
"This squad has the ability for the manager to pick a team to suit a certain game or if there a few injuries about. He is willing to change things, even during a match, so you have to be alert to what he wants to do. He's very strong on us working hard when we have not got the ball, and we have not conceded any goals in the last three games so his methods are obviously working. I'm really enjoying the way he has us playing.
"There's a great spirit in the squad right now. Everybody was out to impress the new manager when he came here, and it's not easy to get into the team because there are others ready to take your place."
