Should Carlos Tevez be on the bench?

The question is where Carlos Tevez will be fitting into this lineup with Dimitar Berbatov up front now. Tevez played some beautiful football during the first month of the season while Rooney seemed to struggle at times, but he has now started only one of United’s past five games. There was talk earlier in the season about signing the Argentinean to a long-term deal, but it’s hard to imagine that he’ll be excited about such a move now. ......read the rest at:

I wud play tevez if i was fergie i wud have paid the £30M ON TEVEZ before berbatov he is a great player but he wasnt worth £30m not at his age anyway fergie cud have paid £35m on david villa much better player
I think he should play because without him there really is no team!!! Rooney cannot compare to Tevez.
He probably should be in the bench, Berbatov may not be as energetic as Tevez, but Tevez and Rooney play the same style. Berbatov gives them balance up front. Villa may be the better player, but Ferguson doesn't need Villa, he needed Berbatov to bring size and guile to his front line
I personally don't really like Berbatov. He seems like the kind of striker that waits for the ball to come to him so he can shoot. Of course I'm not saying he doesn't have talent nor that he doesn't "fight" for the ball onces in a while but he lacks what Tevez brings in abundance which is attack. Which most strikers give up after trying to steal/chase the ball from a player onces ...Tevez on the other hand is much more energetic and runs/pressures them.
Rooney - Cristiano - Tevez made a much better combination, this is all in my own personal opinion.
i feel that paying 30 m for someone as old as berba was a waste and that tevez deserves a place ahead of the former spurs hitman. he always gives his 100% while berba plays very lazily.

I hope he does sign on, though.
I dont understand why Fergie spent 30 million on a striker he doesnt need! He already had 2 great strikers and if one of them got hurt he could stick Ronaldo up there. I just dont get it....
