Kenny kept it quiet for a few reasons.
1. So nobody catches on to any deal.
2. Other interested clubs aren't alerted.
Of course we are interested in Tevez, it doesn't just get made up. Personally, I wouldn't want him anywhere near the club, he obviously hasn't wanted to be in the country, ever since he has been here, refused to warm up/play. No thank you.
Kenny might see it differently and perhaps, we could make this is "home".
Once again, Kenny is going to put that message out in the press, "No in's, or out's" so the press don't start catching on and asking questions. It nips it in the bud and it's kept quiet and clear.
Liverpool have purposely left it to the last day, because If City don't have any other options, in terms of Milan or PSG, they are going to basically take "anything" to get him out of the club at the last minute. Even if it means out on loan!
Liverpool are waiting to see what happens, no rush, no panic, if it comes of, it comes of. We are in a brilliant position. We are only next door, not across the other side of the world.
The rumors that broke in the papers about Carroll's involvement, I believe to be totally false and came straight out of City!
City were fully aware of our loan or full time interest in Tevez and put that out in the papers, to test the water, maybe that is exactly what City want(ed) here? Anybody asked themselves that? maybe they want Carroll in return.
Personally, like I said, I wouldn't touch Tevez with a barge pole and by the looks of it, neither are City.
Kenny put that blunt attitude out in the press, because he knows full well we are working on player(s) and if none of them come of today, he doesn't look like a total idiot either way, does he? He can say, well I did tell you so, didn't I? "No in's, or out's!"
