Ex-City star Tevez was never a man to take the easy route

Part of his holistic approach to training includes his players having to solve mental strategy problems after being put through the wringer in an exhaustive physical session, to assess decision-making under pressure.

He soon learned that some players could not do elementary maths equations.

"That is poverty. We can help the kid with food and a lot of things but studying, knowing how to defend himself, reading what he is signing, not getting screwed..." Tevez explained, after bringing in the teacher to help with reading, writing and arithmetic having noted the spectrum of social backgrounds within his team.

Tevez has always been a person to do things his way ditching United for rivals City, going AWOL under Roberto Mancini and refusing to learn English in protest of the lasting damage to some family members made as result of the Falklands War.
