Tevez: Man City fans misinformed about me

Carlos Tevez insists he has no problem with Manchester City fans being angry with him.

Tevez says he was treated "like a dog" by manager Roberto Mancini during their infamous clash at Bayern Munich.

"I believe they were misinformed, they weren't told the facts," he said in an interview shown and translated on Sky Sports News.

"So that when they were told I didn't want to play they naturally turned against me.

"If a player doesn't want to play for the team that's paying his wages it's only natural for them to turn against that player.

"And I couldn't understand what was going on. I swore like any player would. I gave everything to that club and when I saw them burning my shirt with my name on it or hurling insults at me it really hurt.

"I gave everything to that club and what I love above all is to play football."
