The comfort from his mother did not significantly change Tevez's performance.
During the next two days of training, he remained in a sleepwalking state, which greatly angered Ferguson.
So, in the last round of matches this month, after much consideration, Ferguson decided to bench Tevez and field his protégé, Solskjaer.
Solskjaer did not disappoint his mentor, scoring the only goal of the game after coming on as a substitute, and Manchester United narrowly defeated Aston Villa.
Watching Solskjaer's triumphant celebrations on the field, Tevez's already low spirits soared even higher...

At the same time, Leeds United, playing at home this round, also faced their old rivals Sunderland.
After this match, it will be the European international break, which is the most dreaded time for the coaches of the major clubs and top teams, because most of their players will be called up to their national teams for matches.
For clubs, it's fine if players only return to their national teams for one game, but if something unexpected happens and a player gets injured, it would be a loss for the club.
However, this is something that Li Shiguang doesn't need to consider too much right now.
In Leeds United's squad, only Berbatov and Deisler can be considered regular starters for the national team and may need to play during international breaks. The other players, even if called up, are basically just substitutes now.
Considering that there are still nearly two weeks until Leeds United's next game, that's enough time for their players to recover their fitness.
Li Shiguang, aiming for a home victory, did not make any major rotations in this match, only letting Berbatov and Deisler play for half the game before substituting them off at halftime.
Of course, the final result was also good. Ribery, who was in red-hot form, scored another goal in this match, ultimately causing Sunderland to suffer another defeat at Elland Road.
With this, Leeds United's first month of the new Premier League season has come to an end.
Although Li Shiguang's bold words were criticized by most people.
But after four rounds of matches, looking at the Premier League standings, the voices questioning him and Leeds United have become fewer and fewer.
Because of the current standings.
Manchester United, with 10 points from three wins and one draw, are ranked first.
Second place goes to Charlton, who also have 10 points from three wins and one draw.
Third place goes to Chelsea, who have three wins and one loss, accumulating nine points. Although they suffered a defeat in the first round away at Elland Road, they quickly adjusted after returning to Stamford Bridge, narrowly defeating Arsenal 1-0 in the second round, and then winning the next two rounds smoothly.
Fourth place goes to Leeds United, who have two wins and two draws, accumulating 8 points.
Liverpool and Arsenal, two traditional powerhouses, have only performed so-so in the first four rounds.
Liverpool have a record of two wins, one draw and one loss, and are currently in eighth place with 7 points.
Arsenal fared even worse, managing only two wins and two losses in four rounds, accumulating 6 points and ranking ninth.
Of course, the season is still long and there are many tough battles ahead. They will play in the League Cup in mid-September, and Leeds United will also join the FA Cup in January next year, so Li Shiguang is not complacent.
During the week that the players called up by the national team were away, he only led the players who were not called up by the national team in some regular training to maintain their form. Moreover, this weekend, he gave the players three days off and asked them to return to the team next Tuesday.
Taking advantage of the few days without training, Li Shiguang still had a few things to do.
During this period, Li Shiguang had been paying close attention to Leeds United's financial situation. After the end of the month, before Allen even brought over the financial statements, Li Shiguang couldn't wait to activate the system.
[Host]: Li Shiguang
[Clubs Owned]: Leeds United
[Economic Status]: Operating normally
[Team Status]: Positive and Upward
Available Funds: €6.9 million
[Fixed Skills]: Super Scout (can freely view detailed attributes of any player), Master Coach.
[Skill Pack]: None
Seeing that he had nearly 7 million euros in available funds, Li Shiguang nodded in satisfaction.
He earned nearly 7 million euros in less than two months, a figure that made him very happy.
The specific details are on the club's financial statements, which Allen hasn't received yet. However, Li Shiguang knows that most of the money should come from season tickets and sales of team merchandise. The Premier League broadcast revenue has not yet been deposited into the club's account, and this income is one of the main sources of revenue for each Premier League club.
It must be said that in the European football scene of this era, the Premier League clubs may not be considered to be firmly in the top tier in terms of athletic performance, but in terms of business model and money-making ability, the Premier League is definitely the leader among all European leagues, without exception.
In reality, the entire operation of the Premier League is handled by the Premier League and the Premier League Committee, and Li Shiguang himself is a member of the committee.
In terms of business logic, the Premier League has basically achieved a model of club management, serving clubs, and being responsible to clubs, while the world's oldest football association has stepped down to the position of supervisor and coordinator, truly achieving a separation of management and operation.
Within the Premier League, a more balanced distribution of resources between strong and weak teams has been achieved compared to other leagues, allowing smaller teams to have star players and thus ensuring the competitiveness and entertainment value of the entire league.
