Savic tells Man City fans: Don't judge Jovetic on my time

Fiorentina defender Stefan Savic says Stevan Jovetic can handle a move to Manchester City. Savic, 22, never managed to hold down a regular place at City, and was sold to the Italian club last summer as part of the deal which took Matija Nastasic to Manchester.

But he believes it would be a different story for £28million-rated Jovetic, 23.

He said: "It was hard for me there because I came straight from the Serbian league. I won a league title but knew I had to play regularly to improve, so I left - it was my decision.

"It is different for Stevan. He has five years' experience and could play straight away with Sergio Aguero and Carlos Tevez."

 Is Savic right about Jovetic? Can he walk into City's first team? Give us your shout below...
