The former Manchester United man has downplayed all rumours suggesting that the forward has a complicated relationship with Barcelona’s http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lionel-Messi-c22296.
Recently, several media sources in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Argentina-c2841 claimed that the 28-year-old has several issues with Messi as the two men differ greatly in their personalities.
According to the reports, the two attacking players are unable to get along on the pitch and they share a troubling relationship.
However, the Manchester City striker has denied all such reports and has claimed that he gets along with the Barca star pretty well.
While talking to Fox Sports, Tevez was quoted as saying:
"Here people say that it is either Tevez or Messi and it does not have to be like that, because I get on great with the dwarf. Those people are wrong, he is a kid who does not talk much and I do not like when people say that we do not get on. I have
a good relationship with him
The two players are widely believed to be among the most gifted forwards in the world and the fact that the two played together for Argentina was taken as a massive plus-point for La Albiceleste.

Argentina is currently ranked at number 10 in the FIFA World Rankings.
