Man City boss Mancini says Tevez primed for derby despite driving sentence

Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini is happy with Carlos Tevez despite his community service sentence for driving offences.

Tevez will not be fined by the club and Mancini does not feel it will have any impact on Monday's Manchester derby.

He said: "I think Carlos made a mistake and he pays for it. Usually he is well behaved.

"Will it cause him a problem? No. I haven't spoken to him about this."
