Furious fans turn on misfiring Tevez

SHANGHAI - Carlos Tevez faced growing calls on Monday to be shipped out as angry Shanghai Shenhua fans turned on the Argentine forward and under-pressure manager Gus Poyet.

Shenhua fans are fast losing patience with Tevez, who only moved to the Chinese club at the start of the year from Boca Juniors on a reported $42 million salary that makes him one of the highest-rewarded players on the planet.

In April, Tevez came under fire from fans after being spotted at Disneyland Shanghai on the same day he missed an important match due to injury.
