Tevez a lazy trainer – Rio
Rio Ferdinand has taken a swipe at former teammate Carlos Tevez, labelling the little Argentine a lazy trainer. Tevez played alongside Ferdinand at Manchester United for two seasons before joining their arch-enemies Manchester City for £25m at the beginning of the season. "Carlos is an interesting character. When he was at United, he saved all his energy for the games - he didn't really go over the top at training,” Ferdinand told The Sun newspaper on Tuesday. "He worked hard in the gym - he was a professional in that sense - but everything he did was geared towards the match at the weekend.” United and City clash this weekend with the red-hot Tevez set pose a problem for United’s defenders. The 26-year-old has scored 22 EPL goals this season and trails only Wayne Rooney (26) and Didier Drogba (25).
