Man City is the right club for Tevez

Carlos Tevez has re-affirmed his claims that he is now at the right club since joining Manchester City from Manchester United. The Argentina forward stoked up the rivalry between the clubs with his brace in the first leg of their Carling Cup semi-final clash at Eastlands last week and his subsequent spat with the United captain Gary Neville. City stepped in to sign Tevez in the summer when the Red Devils decided not to turn his loan deal into a permanent arrangement, and the 25-year-old insists he could not be happier at how things have turned out. Quoted in the Daily Mirror, Tevez said: "The welcome I received from the moment I arrived at City has been very special. I was made to feel loved and this means a lot to any footballer.

"I feel I've shown I'm at the right club now. Everyone knows how important the fans are at this club and, if I make them happy, it's an honour. "I think the United fans know I tried hard. City is my club now, a place where I feel part of everything. Maybe this wasn't always the way at United." Tevez gestured to Neville warming up on the sidelines after scoring his first goal of the match last week, indicating he felt the United captain had spoken out of turn by saying Sir Alex Ferguson was right to let the South American leave Old Trafford. Tevez then described Neville as "an idiot" and a "boot-licker" in an Argentinian radio interview, adding even more intrigue to tomorrow night's second leg at Old Trafford. * PA Sport

Key figures in the life of the fort

Sheikh Dhiyab bin Isa (ruled 1761-1793) Built Qasr Al Hosn as a watchtower to guard over the only freshwater well on Abu Dhabi island.

Sheikh Shakhbut bin Dhiyab (ruled 1793-1816) Expanded the tower into a small fort and transferred his ruling place of residence from Liwa Oasis to the fort on the island.

Sheikh Tahnoon bin Shakhbut (ruled 1818-1833) Expanded Qasr Al Hosn further as Abu Dhabi grew from a small village of palm huts to a town of more than 5,000 inhabitants.

Sheikh Khalifa bin Shakhbut (ruled 1833-1845) Repaired and fortified the fort.

Sheikh Saeed bin Tahnoon (ruled 1845-1855) Turned Qasr Al Hosn into a strong two-storied structure.

Sheikh Zayed bin Khalifa (ruled 1855-1909) Expanded Qasr Al Hosn further to reflect the emirate's increasing prominence.

Sheikh Shakhbut bin Sultan (ruled 1928-1966) Renovated and enlarged Qasr Al Hosn, adding a decorative arch and two new villas.

Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan (ruled 1966-2004) Moved the royal residence to Al Manhal palace and kept his diwan at Qasr Al Hosn.
