I miss Boca. I miss the fans, wearing the jersey every Sunday, and stepping on to La Bombonera.
— Carlos Tevez
I'm a bit tired of so much football, so much football. I want to enjoy my family a bit. I'm very keen to stop and get a bit of calm.
It is with great regret that I have to inform Manchester City of my wish to leave the club. I would like to state that I have great respect for the club, its supporters, and the owner, Sheikh Mansour, who has been nothing other than respectful to me.
Everything I do, I do for my daughters.
I train with a serious attitude, and when I am having time off, I hope to be respected as well.
At 26 or 27, I was fatter than anyone.
In every team, you have to win the respect of your team-mates, working a lot and really sweat blood.
There's no need for City to make me have two training sessions a day.
I don't want to play anymore. I'm tired of football but also tired of people who work in football.
City showed me their ambition to be one of the biggest clubs in the world, and I was happy to join.
I'm really happy to be here at Juve. It's a really big satisfaction for me.
You must be in supreme physical condition. If your body isn't right, you cannot play in the Premier League.
I don't like making comparisons. You might say one slight thing, find yourself misinterpreted, and suddenly you're in trouble.
Every single thing related to Old Trafford is amazing. When I was a little kid, I dreamed of playing in a real field, but I never imagined something as fantastic as this.
Of course I would buy a house in Marbella. In Marbella, you can buy a house by the beach, relax there, and later you can go there on holiday and everything.
He who doesn't love Messi knows nothing about football or about life.
In order to make history, you have to win the World Cup. It's not good enough just to reach a final.
I don't regret anything, not even leaving Boca because it was the time to do so.
The golf bag hurts my shoulder too much; I prefer to play football.
Money has never been important. Having a coach who wants me and who wants to play me, having a good fanbase and an environment in which I am happy - these are the important things to me.
Living without my children in Manchester has been incredibly challenging for me.
To play at home, sometimes it goes against you in a Libertadores final.
I have no problem with Sir Alex Ferguson.
I want to thank Manchester United, David Gill, Alex Ferguson, and the fanbase for two years there, but this is my new life, and I am very happy to be with Manchester City.
Salary matters shouldn't be told to everyone. It's a matter of respect for my teammates.
I will give everything to help City become one of the biggest and most important clubs in England - and win some trophies.
I am not as dangerous as I used to be. I am not as effective in the penalty area any more. That is something I have lost and something I have to get back. I used to score better goals, great goals. But something strange has happened.
I especially enjoy fish and chips.
Sure, it was difficult when I first came, but I am very happy to be here, in England.
For one thing, my English isn't fantastic, and communicating in the dressing room is not always easy.
I get on particularly well with Patrice Evra.
I do feel the obligation and desire to win the Scudetto with Juventus, and obviously everybody wants to win the Champions League.
Me and my family all like Shanghai, and I'm slowly getting used to the city and the atmosphere.
I won't have plastic surgery. You either take me as I am, or you don't.
Living for football has saturated me.
The history of Juventus have always been a bit like this: they do well in Serie A and struggle in Europe.
The first thing United's fans have to understand is that a part of my heart will always be with them. They were very supportive, and they always made me feel good even when I wasn't playing, so I will always keep that in my heart. The second point is that the reason I did not stay at United was nothing to do with the fans.
What one does in one's club is what determines whether one gets called up for the national team.
To play a match between Boca and River in Madrid, it's weird. But as a player, it is important to stay focused on the match.
I am not preoccupied about my future.
City's boss and owner came with a very good proposal. They showed me that City has the ambition to be one of the biggest clubs in the world. This made it easy to make the move. Money was never important.
Football is only about money, and I don't like it.
I'm excited about working with Mark Hughes and building a good relationship with him.
I do not speak very often to the press. I just have it in my head. I do my talking out there on the field, which is the most important thing.
I am a striker, a goalscorer. That is my art.
It's hard to say you're struggling if you're a professional footballer. Other people have far greater problems.
What's helped me is my childhood, my tough upbringing. I learnt a lot from that; it helps with any problems I might encounter.
In Manchester, there are two restaurants, and everything's small. It rains all the time.
I'm absolutely aware of the great effort Juventus Football Club has made to bring me here.
My wish is to concentrate on playing football for Manchester City.
