Roberto Mancini's frustration with Carlos Tevez broadened into a critique of Wayne Bridge's lifestyle as the Manchester City manager expressed his distaste for the way footballers can bank vast sums of money without kicking a ball.
Mancini's  exasperation with Tevez was accompanied by a clear sense of regret as  he considered a congested fixture schedule that begins with Stoke City's  visit to the Etihad Stadium  and could see the Premier League  leaders play eight games in January. His falling-out with the  Argentinian was "strange and frustrating", he said. "With Carlos in the  squad, we're a better team. Carlos is a fantastic striker, so we were  better, 100%."
 When Manchester City bought all these players we paid a lot of money  but every time we want to sell one, the [buying] clubs want to get the  player on loan. This is not good for this club or the other clubs. City  paid a lot of money [for Tevez] three years ago and I think it's only  correct that if Milan, Juventus and PSG want him they should pay the  value."
Mancini also revealed that he planned more talks with  François Zahoui, the manager of the Ivory Coast national team, after  learning that Yaya and Kolo Touré may be called up for the Africa Cup of  Nations earlier than expected.Zahoui, who knows Mancini after spending  two seasons at Ascoli in the 1980s, had agreed to waive Fifa's two‑week  rule and allow the Tourés to play in the FA Cup third-round tie against  Manchester United on 8 January and the home leg of the Carling Cup  semi-final against Liverpool three days later.
The Cup of Nations  starts on 21 January, in Gabon and Equatorial Guinea. Mancini also  wanted his players to face Wigan a week earlier. However, other clubs  have made similar requests, citing the precedent at City, and the offer  has been revoked. The brothers may therefore have to leave after the  United match.
