No guessing what today's big story has been; Carlos Tevez, his move here finally signed and sealed after weeks of speculation. The player and his agent were met outside the stadium by crowds of fans and a bit of an unnecessary hug from Garry Cook, after arriving fashionably late this afternoon following a medical. It's taken a while, in part down to the complexities involved when dealing with third-party agreements, but it's been well worth the wait. He's somebody who i expect will give the whole club a lift.
It's a huge signing, perhaps as big as Robinho, and another real statement of intent. Assuming we do go on to sign Emmanuel Adebayor, aswell, we'd have five very good Premier League forwards, and an array of options for the new season. Tevez has proven himself to be good enough during his two years at Old Trafford, only an idiot would deny that, almost a goal every other start, scoring only one less goal than fan's darling/idiotboy Wayne Rooney during that time.
Carlos will wear his favoured No32 shirt at City, and has inked a five year deal.
