TEVEZ MANCINI FIGHT- ADVISE TO SOCCER MANAGERS - CAPT AJIT VADAKAYIL

AN OPEN LETTER TO MANCINI -- TEVEZ VERSUS MANCINI OPEN WAR -- LEADERSHIP LESSONS FOR SOCCER MANAGERS.

First of all--ADVISE to all retired professional soccer players-- SUPPORT TEVEZ!  Has any spectator ever come to a stadium to see a manager or a coach or a owner or press or FIFA officials.

If you are a talented world beater ( say a musician ) will you allow a moneybag Shylock to stiffle your breath, by NOT allowing you to play or ply your trade -- just because you have a legal contract with him

West Ham fans cheer every goal of Tevez even when he plays against them-- in another team. They know what he is worth.  And they are a grateful lot , unlike the Manchester clubs.

This Tevez - Manchini incident exposes the urgent need for all soccer managers to develop leadership skills, so that the world of soccer is NOT disgraced again.

In Oct 2010 there was a bizarre incident , at half time , when Mancini went into the dressing room and started railing at the players.  Mancini was furious that his players were NOT playing well, while Tevez told him that City were playing in too defensive a formation with Newcastle.

Then Mancini tells a stunned Captain Tevez to go and FUC# his own mother-- in front of the whole team!.

The whole world knew about this including the Owner Sheikh- why was this man NOT disciplined? This usual crap about what goes in the dressing room stays inside is NOT for this bullshit situation--where a manager abuses a team captain.

Immediately all City players prevented Tevez , who was a cult hero of the club, from taking a swing at his manager. City was leading 2-1 at this stage. This type of uncouth behavior might be OK in Italy, but defnitely NOT in Argentina or in other cultures. 

On my ship I use the F word often even on walkie talkie or intercom, but I hold the RESPECT of my entire crew-- or I'd be lynched.

The beer loving masses , using soccer as Opium to forget their miserable daily Manchester grind for 90 minutes , will NOT be able to interpret what happened in a cerebral manner. Here is something for them.

Time to move on from team managers to team mentors.

Few hours ago ex-captain and 2010 season top scorer Carlos Tevez and manager Roberto Mancini of soccer club Manchester City have damaged their relations irreversibly.

All the Englishmen with the melody of Maradona's "Hand of God" still playing in their heads , are crying hoarse for Tevez's expulsion and ban. These are the same guys who wanted black skinned Usain Bolt to be stripped off his 100 metres world record medal at Beijing Olympics, for celebrating too hard.

As for me I switched loyalties from Manchester United to Manchester City along with Carlos Tevez-- the player who gives his 100% on the field , is unselfish ( unlike Ronaldo ) and is full of heart and soul.

I will switch my loyalties back to Manchester United , if Tevez leaves City. 

After watching Tevez in the World Cup I had declared to my son who is a Manchester United nut.  If Alex Ferguson knows his soccer he will sign on Tevez.  For here is a striker who incises the opposition defence, rather than circumvent it.

And then later on I got a call on the ship from my excited elder son , who broke the news " Tevez is now in ManU"

That year Manchester United won every single trophy on the planet. With Ronaldo , Rooney and Tevez upfront. They put every team defence to the sword-- and how!

But then Tevez had run-ins with Ferguson who is UNFIT to lead any other team other than a English club, where he can be lord and master of whatever he surveys.  He has no respect for culture.

Let him try to be manager of an Italian team or Spanish team in the leagues of those countries, and he will know what life is. 

Ferguson is a very poor leader of men, but he is still on the saddle due to the awe factor and his huge track record..

But this man cannot take criticism.  Is he god?

All soccer managers are trying to model themselves after huge calibre , but stiff upper lipped Ferguson.  But he is a VERY POOR role model , an immature man and a poor communicator.

SIR Alex Ferguson is the one who kicked a boot on Beckham's head, nearly blinding him. Can he do this in Italy, -- he will castrated, and will be on a wheelchair for the rest of his life. 

Here is my advise to these small calibre dictator managers like Roberto Mancini-- whose leadership qualities are HORRIBLE, rather non-existant. .  "The fans back me NOT Tevez " , this pompous tuft tells all who care to listen.  Let me tell him, there is a world of soccer outside the smoggy confines of Manchester-- and the soccer world has long memories.

Try and keep a cat as a pet, who will NOT hero worship you, instead of a dog. For the cat, you are nothing but dust and ashes. For the dog, the world was created for you. It is futile to take everything personally with your pet cat-- because you cat ignored you  today, no breakfast tomorrow-- Mancini style.

Don't keep one leg in the past and one in the future to piss on the present.  Enjoy the differences. The foundation of a relationship is unconditional trust and transparency.

Understand the other point of view. Shed your past excess emotional baggage. There is NO need to hang on to this just to strengthen your identity.

Allow some more into your inner sanctum other than the regular bootlickers and hand kissers. Shed your penchant for yes-men instead of capable men.

Keep your club agenda ahead of your personal agenda. Listen to your star players views without feeling threatened.

You ego has become grit in the club's system breeding indifference and no meaningful communications.

You ego makes it impossible for you to distinguish between a situation and the reaction to a situation.

An immature leader douses the spark -like what happened to Tevez. Leadership is NOT an ego game.

It is a poor leader who will kick the beehive to extract honey--the bees will willingly give it to you if you have the tact and wisdom . They will go to other hives steal the honey and give you that too..

Learn to use different leadership styles , to be effective with different players and for different situations. Have the technique to squeeze out good performance.

Never allow your stars to stagnate. You five fingers cannot be treated the same. You cant solve your current problems with the same type of thinking which created it in the first place.

A leader must deal with reality and create stability within the team. It is NOT about command and control like Ferguson--who has an enviable track record and so everything goes.  Did not Van Nistleroy and David Beckham free from this man's negative vibes and highhandedness ?



Learn some emotional vocabulary , or hire an Italian to Spanish translator.

Only words have the power to create peace or start wars.

A soothing word can immediately lower an emotion. Quality players do NOT like to be benched unreasonably.  Develop some listening skills before you cut a sorry figure like this in future.

Next time you will have to pack up your own bags-- it wont be a star player doing the packing.

Develop a style that balances your own maturity with the players maturity.

All know that Tevez is a simpleton--he is not a scheming guy like Ronaldo. Learn to embrace ambiguity.

DON'T GET THREATENED IF ALL YOUR PLAYERS DO NOT FIT INTO YOUR STEREOTYPE MOULD.

In effective leadership there is NO right and NO wrong. There are only effective solutions. So next time you get upset with another great player like Tevez, understand that your are reacting to your own dang rules for the situation.

Are you cock sure that Tevez refused to play OR he said he has already warmed up for the game--in a stadium deafened with sound. Cant you see his lip movements on video? In the previous game Tevez was told to warm up by Mancini and then humiliated by not calling him on on the field. Let me tell this --all champions have self respect, this is the inner essense of every hero.

And how does Mancini react?  Without clarifying the matter at a crucial stage of the match, he screams at Tevez " Fu#k off back to Argentina !!"

BRAVO!!

Any player in EPL or Champions league , or for the matter anywhere -- is entitled to say NO to such sustained personal abuse!

Use this incident to refocus--not to debate. Debates rarely go beyond focus on thesis and anti-thesis, entrenching all more deeply in their original positions and grooves.

Try and be a mentor--this is why the owners have employed you by paying a fortune as a salary.

You don't score any goals on the field  right? 

Try to develop some courtesy. Don't bench a star player--just to teach him a lesson, as to who is boss. A small courtesy would have struck deep into Tevez's appreciating heart.

A good leader will know how to use negative emotions  as a call to fruitful action. A soft answer turns away wrath,

THE BEST TIME TO KILL A NEGATIVE EMOTION IS WHEN YOU FIRST FEEL IT. KILL THE TINY MONSTER BEFORE IT BECOMES TOO BIG.

STEP OUTSIDE YOUR COMFORT ZONE TO INITIATE A CONVERSATION AND SECURE A COMMITMENT.

You have side stepped issues involving a star player , losing credibility. Have a culture to support your most valuable resources. There is more to the world of soccer than biased English opinion still jaundiced by the Falkland war and "hand of god".

You have caused a workhorse like Tevez to slip down from 100% commitment to ZERO commitment. Whose fault is this?

You have been employed by your owners, to regularly check how your team is doing emotionally and psychologically--NOT just to induct a benched player at the time you deem fit, based on your whims.

Learn to respect players.

Tone down your aggressive body language , which does NOT match with your defensive risk free tactics on the field . And have proper communications.  A star player stating that "he does NOT need to warm up" ( after warming up , he was ignored in the previous game ) is not the same as "refusing to play".

First you doused the spark of evergreen striker Adabeyor, now you seem to have made a habit of it.

Learn the difference between positive constructive feedback and destructive verbal attack via the media.

Mancini, any idiot manager on the planet can buy the BEST players with money and win a trophy. No skills are required for this other than PR skills--which you obviously dont have, or you would NOT have frustrated Tevez this way. .

Can anybody point out a more hardworking and dedicated player than Tevez, who even hustles the goalkeeper to make a mistake. Try this--it burns up energy.

IF YOU WANT TO MOVE MEN, YOU MUST TOUCH THEIR EMOTIONS.  AUTHORITY WITHOUT LOVE IS STIFLING. 

SO SAYS A LEADER OF MEN, FOR 3 DECADES.

Hullo Tevez, life is too short to waste a minute doing something you don't like. Manchester City is NOT the place for you. None have cared that you were the top scorer in 2010.  There is no fairness and dignity here.

If Maradona and Ferguson , who understand soccer better than others, have selected you to play for their teams- you are good enough--you dont have to kiss Mancini's ass.

Confidence means , being prepared to walk away from a shit situation-- and from ungrateful people.

And Tevez, without knowing you have introduced a CHANGE in soccer-- the fans dont want Ferguson type dictators,  or the heavy handedness and over bearing behavior of FIFA too. We watch  soccer to enjoy our stars in action.  Mancini, will never understand the meaning of TEAM DYNAMICS, which is what the fans come to the soccer stadium to watch. You have already apologised to the City fans, and expressed your desire to continue playing. There is NO need to apologise to Mancini and give him a "Italian ego massage". This man will self destruct pretty soon, for he needs to put soccer stars in their places. Let him continue wasting his energy on resentment. Whatever this man gives will all be conditional, for his bottomline is all about--  I  ME  I  ME --.And dont get upset by both ManU and City fans ( arch enemies otherwise ) getting together to publicly garbage your T shirts.  History will have the last laugh, NOT these "brownie point scorers " of Manchester, who lack class.

Right now Mancini is riding high along with vindictive City fans - all brown nosing THE moneybag HRH the shiekh Mansoor. Mancini later in life , will find himself in the dustbin of soccer history.

What a muff this Mancini is -- Tevez- Dzeko- Aguero --the dream line up on this planet up front in the UEFA league -- yet he wants to play defensive.  Manchester City fans will learn their bitter UEFA lesson soon enough.

Above video show Roberto Mancini's vulgar attack on David Moyes- manager of Everton--just because his team was losing 2-0.  English fans deserve this man.

Stefan Savic fed up of this man's bullshit training methods where players are treated with disrespect, kicked him on his calf--and NOT a single player came to help him. All were smirking.

Manchester City is called "FIGHT TEAM " , as Mancini's training sessions are petty and competitive.

Fitness coach Raymond Verheijen and team pysiotherapist Jamie Murphy think that he is a king sized asshole. Did NOT Mancini give the same immature and vindictive Tevez treatment to Adebayor and Bellamy ?

2001: Makes debut for Boca Juniors.

2003:  Helps Boca win two Argentinian titles, two Copa Libertadores titles and the World Club Championship .

2005:  Helps Corinthians to the Brazilian title and named the competition’s best player.

2007: Saves Westham from relegation earning the eternal love of all Hammer fans, scoring 7 livewire goals in last 10 matches, and for his golden goal beating Manchester United in the final match

2008: Wins the English  Premier League with Manchester United.

2008 – Wins Champions League final with Manchester United in Moscow beating Chelsea.

2009 - Wins his second Premier League title with Manchester United


2009- Assists Manchester United to reach Champions league finals.

2010- - Lifts (Stoke 1-0)  the FA Cup as Captain and ends Manchester City’s 35-year droughtl without a trophy.

2010- Helps Manchester City to third place in EPL. He is the EPL tournaments highest scorer and also scored / assisted in more than 50% of City's goals.

Tevez has made 59 appearances for national Argentina team.

Westham supporters still sing the song “there is only one Carlos Tevez”.  

He has a burn scar on his neck , Tevez has refused all free offers for cosmetic surgery , stating that the scar is a part of who he was in the past and who he is today.

In Jan 2005 , his transfer fee to Corinthains of 15 million Euro, was the highest ever in South American football.

At the 2004 Olympic games, he won the gold medal and scored eight goals (including the winner in the final) in six matches to be the top scorer of the competition

Tévez is loved for his tango flare celebrations .He would hide a baby's dummy in his shorts and put it in his mouth after scoring a goal as a commemorative gesture to his baby daughter. Since his move to Manchester City, Tévez has often performed a dance where he puts his hands together, bends down and rocks his body; this dance has been named after him as the "Tévez Dance"

He performs as the frontman for his cumbia villera musical group, Piola Vago, with his brother Diego. The group's most successful hit, "Lose Your Control", was charted in Argentina..

FINALLY WHAT IS WRONG ABOUT TEVEZ SAYING THAT HE MISSES HIS FAMILY AND HE WANTS TO BE WITH THEM.   HIS WIFE AND KIDS FALL SICK IN MANCHESTER.

(  On 6 February 2009, Tévez was stopped by Manchester police and charged with illegally tinted windows.  Yes-of course, only Zionist bankers are allowed that.  His car was then impounded by the police since he could not arrange for it to be removed himself ( sic!).

Maradona was also subjected to this type harassment by traffic police--to score brownie points, over the "Hand of god"..)

Below :  Tevez winner of skill contest.

I AM A SAILOR , BEEN AWAY FROM MY FAMILY FOR 4 DECADES-- I KNOW WHAT THIS STATEMENT MEANS.

HE HAS TRIED ALL NORMAL CHANNELS AND FAILED, RIGHT? 

AND TO ADD TO HIS WOES , HE HAS THIS OBNOXIOUS ITALIAN AS A MILLSTONE ON HIS NECK--  TEACHING HIM WHO IS BOSS DAILY,  SCORING BROWNIE POINTS DAILY , IN A MOST PETTY MANNER,  AND PAINTING TEVEZ INTO A CORNER.

AND THE PETTY MANCHESTER FANS , CAN'T STOMACH WHAT TEVEZ SAID ABOUT THE LOUSY MANCHESTER WEATHER .   "ACID RAIN" TERM WAS COINED BY LAB TESTING  MANCHESTER RAIN WATER.


A leader (like Mancini) who lies in ambush and who wants PUBLIC ego massages and apologies -- is NOT a leader at all.  The previous game , he made Tevez warm up and did NOT call him to play.  And he was sure Tevez is too simple to figure out the booby trap.

And a UNGRATEFUL man is NOT a man at all .

For me if a thief or scoundrel has gratitude , he is a man. For gratitude is man's No 1 quality.  How quickly the petty minded Manchester fans has forgotten Tevez's past services.

LET US SEE WHO GETS SACKED FIRST CARLOS TEVEZ OR MANCINI , WHO IS ON A 5 YEAR PLUM CONTRACT.
