Oh! Come on Teves...

He is so childish and speaks like a looser. Berbatov just played some match and he also played some importance match. It is all depends on Sir Alex tactical.

CARLOS TEVEZ claims he knew his days at Manchester United were numbered when Dimitar Berbatov joined the club.

The Argentina striker will be playing for a new team next season after turning down a five-year contract to remain at Old Trafford.

And he felt Berbatov’s arrival from Tottenham last summer, which provided further competition for places up front, proved to him his future did not lie at United.

"I am not sure where I am going to play, but I know for sure that will not be at Manchester (United)," Tevez said yesterday.

"When I arrived I had to fight for a place like any other player. My first season was good. I was a starter or a substitute, but I respected that.

"But in my second year, after the match against Liverpool, the coach started to overlook me. The fans supported me a lot so I thought that something was going on as my performances were also good. I was a professional.

"I did not feel supported after they signed Berbatov, because I was the man for the job he was bought to do.

"Last year I was the second top-scorer after Cristiano (Ronaldo). We won two titles (the Barclays Premier League and the Carling Cup) and being shut out like this was something that I could not understand."

Tevez added: "They did not ask me to sign the contract. Ferguson told me not be worried about Berbatov’s arrival, but I did not like it when he started to put me on the bench often. I gave my life for the Manchester United shirt."

Manchester United 2009/10 New Home Kit Revealed!!

Media outlets today received Nike teaser images ahead of the launch on July 1 and on sale from July 16. These images are in semi-darkness, and reveal little about the new design. You can also see it at Manutd.com.

The players will be wearing the kit for the first time during their pre-season tour of Asia next month against Malaysia XI ( Yes! Be proud about it). The squad fly out to the Far East on 16 July - the day the kit goes on sale and if you already pre-orders the kit from official website, they will also delivered the kit on that date.

A black ‘v-shape’ stripe features on the shirt’s chest, which also features a black round-neck collar. The stripe is reminiscent of shirts worn by Manchester United during the 1908-09 season, when they reached the FA Cup final.

“The new Manchester United home kit has been designed by Nike to recognise the clubs glorious history at Old Trafford in the ground’s centenary year and features several design cues that pay homage to the side that first played at the Theatre of Dreams,” read a release issued on behalf of Nike.

The socks are black but appear to have a red V stretching around the back, similar to the V on the front of the shirt. The white shorts have a thick red stripe running down the outside.

The teaser images still carry the logo of AIG, the American insurance giants, whose contract with the Premier League champions expires at the end of next season.
