Geoff Shreeves: ?An extraordinary situation this evening, Roberto Mancini has said Carlos refused to come off the bench. What is the truth??
Carlos T?vez: ?I didn?t want to warm up because I wasn?t feeling very well so I thought it was better not to (interrupted). So I didn?t think I was in a good situation to come on, because my head wasn?t in the right place.?
Translation: ?Just was not feeling very good inimically/anemically [sic] and mentally, so I put my opinion to just that.?
Shreeves: ?Roberto has also said in a press conference that you will never play for him again. Do you think your future lies elsewhere now? Are you finished at this club for refusing to play??
T?vez: ?Those are decisions which he makes and I agree with that. It?s just that I have been professional up until now. I was the top goalscorer last season so I don?t think I deserve this treatment.
Yes I wanted to leave. I asked to leave because I had family problems but now my family is here and I?m happy, but I don?t have the manager?s backing.?
Translation: ?Yeah, I think it?s his decision. I have been a professional during all the time in here. Last season I was also the best scorer. And I put my opinion through that I want to leave because of family reasons but I keep trying to do my best.?
