    Tevez does not know if he has "b***s" to quit playing for Argentina

    Manchester City's Argentina hitman, Carlos Tevez,26, is convinced he will not make the next World Cup squad, but it seems, that he does not have the "b***s" to quit.

    Tevez scored in his country's 4-1 drubbing of world champions Spain on Tuesday. It was his 13th goal in 57 games.

    City's new captain opened his heart about his career.

    The Sun quoted him, as saying: "I'm considering my future. I'm tired, I'm 26 and I'm getting on. Physically, I'm struggling. I can't handle getting kicked and getting up and having to fight for another 90 minutes. I'm all beaten up."

    "The knocks I get in games, like against Spain, start to hurt more and more. If it was up to me I wouldn't be with the national team - I am because of the support I get from the fans, and from my family," he added.

    "I still want to play and be part of the set up but I don't know if I'll make it to the 2014 World Cup. I won't go into the tournament better prepared than the last one, so I think it will be difficult for me to make it to 2014," he said. (ANI)
