This post is dedicated to Cesar Lopez from CNN, who was raving about Tevez and how awesome he is earlier today.
As a follow-up to the Messi as a superstar post, Manchester City and Argentina forward Tevez scored three goals on Monday against Blackburn Rovers and he has singlehandedly taken the City to fourth place in the English Premier League with 10 goals in the last seven matches, during which his team has gone 5-1-1.
If Tevez keeps rolling like he is right now until the World Cup, Argentina's head coach Diego Maradona has a pleasant problem in his hands.
Up until now, Tevez had been in Maradona's doghouse ever since Argentina lost 2-0 to Ecuador in World Cup qualifying last summer and the 25-year-old forward missed a potential go-ahead penalty kick in that match.
Argentina's attacking duo at the moment is Messi-Higuain, but Tevez is willing his way back in with goals. Messi seems to be untouchable, and Higuain has been good so far, no reason to take him out.
What would you do in Maradona's place? And where does this leave Palermo? If it wasn't for him and his 94th minute goal against Peru, Argentina wouldn't even be in the World Cup.
