For starters, let me say Tevez is a sheer class. The last game showed it again. Well i think tevez should stay at West Ham. I admit the times of Maradona and Pele are a distant memory now, where one man ran the show. The sport is now all about team work. Tevez was a hit in Brazil against all odds and now he's proving his worth in EPL. If Tevez is to attain any sort of recognition and stature of the greats West Ham is the club for him. Maradona lifted Napoli, a virtually unknown team to the top of the Serie A during his time there. Pele did the same with Santos in Brazil. It's one thing to be playing on a team like Man Utd, Chelsea, Real madrid, Barcelona etc where u are literally surrounded by Quality players and it's another thing to be playing in a mediocre and low level team and putting them on a path of glory. I'm not implying Tevez has done that but definitely implying that he will do it with West Ham and replicate the achievements of Maradona and Pele at club level and that will separate him from the rest. Moving to another club will only deaccelerate his burgeoning career.As a matter of fact, big clubs interested in him already have quality players. There's no doubt in Tevez's quality but the choices Bigger clubs have at their dispense will limit his time on the field. Staying with West Ham should be his priority where he is the nucleus of the team. If there is anything that can be done by West Ham then it is to make some sensible reinforcements during the off season. West Ham needs to bolster the back up line and the central midfield, acquire creative midfielders so that Tevez can do what he is best at and hopefully we can see his post-goal celebration dance game after game.
