Carlos Tevez has once again spoken about his time at Manchester United and claimed that he felt disrespected by Sir Alex Ferguson.

Tevez also spoke about why he left United, citing a breakdown in communication between himself and Ferguson.

The Manchester City striker told Loaded magazine: "I think I deserved more respect than what was shown."

The Argentinian said: "It was very strange. In the first year everything went very well - I was part of the team and felt like I was important to the coach and the club. But in the second, there was a big change.

"There was no communication with the manager and I began to feel as if I was not wanted.

"Every footballer will say that if they do not feel wanted, then it is the beginning of the end."
