Man City boss Mancini shrugs off latest Tevez touchline bust-up

Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini was happy with the touchline strop of Carlos Tevez in victory over Bolton Wanderers.

Tevez's goal - his 10th of the season - in the fourth minute was enough to separate the sides.

Tevez ended the game by giving Mancini an ear-bashing when he was replaced by James Milner in the final minute.

Mancini shrugged off the incident and said: "I am happy about this. I would like all players to be like Carlos and want to stay on the pitch.

"I needed a player like Mario on the pitch as he is taller than Carlos. We must continue to score when Carlos doesn't play."
