Carlos Tévez Will Definitely Maybe Be At City Next Season, Says Noel Gallagher

So, Noel Gallagher, what do you make of Carlos Tevez's claims that he wants to leave Manchester City because he does not like the chief executive? "Well," said the rock star and City's most famous supporter. "He would be the first person I've ever heard of to leave a football club because he didn't like someone in the office."

Not buying it then? "Not at all. For a guy who can't even speak English how are we supposed to believe he has got a relationship with the executives in the first place, unless he's been trying to get himself a new deal anyway.

"He has two choices now if he means this – he either leaves or he retires. But I think there's more to it than meets the eye.

"Everyone was saying the same thing about Wayne Rooney: 'He's going, he's definitely going.' What is happening now is that Rooney's agent has set the bar when it comes to modern‑day transfer requests. But I would still put money on Tevez being here next season."

And what will be the crowd's reaction when City play Everton on Monday and Tevez turns out for the first time since announcing to the world that he wanted an Oasis-like split?

"He's been the best player we have ever had in my book and, as long as he is doing it on the pitch, they won't turn on him. I won't be booing anyway and I think it will be all right because he's not the kind of player who will go missing."

Gallagher is in Turin for Manchester City's Europa League tie against Juventus tomorrow. The Eastlands club have already qualified for the knockout stages. "It is disappointing because of the timing of it. Why not wait until the end of the season?

"The one thing that goes against Carlos is that he already plays for Man City so nobody can link him to us. He can't say: 'Oh I want to go to Man City because they are offering me £200,000 a week,' when he's already getting £280,000 a week out of us."

Gallaghers Still At War Over Oasis Split

Liam Gallagher is still not speaking to his brother Noel - almost 18 months after they split up Oasis.

The British band fell apart in August last year after singer Liam and guitarist Noel had a furious bust-up backstage before a concert in Paris, France.

Noel quit the group in a fury after the argument - and Liam, who went on to form Beady Eye with the remaining members of Oasis, has revealed the warring siblings are still not on speaking terms.

Asked by the NME what the brothers' "relationship" is like now, Gallagher replied: "I haven't got one with him."

And when asked whether his elder sibling has heard Beady Eye's upcoming debut album, he said: "Don't know. Don't care."

Beady Bye Were Formed The Same Day Oasis Split

Liam Gallagher has told the NME that he, Gem Archer, Andy Bell and Chris Sharrock immediately formed Beady Eye after Oasis split in August 2009 in Paris.

The singer said that the band were formed "that night" he added "We all went back to the hotel, got on the piss and it was like, 'Alright lets fucking do this.' I might have apologised to the lads, I might not have, I can't remember."

When asked about the fight with brother Noel, that finally split up the band after eighteen years Liam said: "It was just another argument between me and our kid had about the usual, just fucking.... him being him and me being me. End of.

It wasn't a big fucking deal, we'd had a lot worse. But I think it was just time, man. I don't think his heart was in it anymore anyway. He wasn't with us no more. So he started the argument, and that was it - I bit. Perfect. I played right into his hands. So there you go."

Beady Eye recently announced a short European tour for March 2011 including six dates in the UK that sold out in thirty minutes. Jeff Wootton and Matt Jones will perform live bass and keyboard duties for the groups live dates.

The band's debut studio album, 'Different Gear, Still Speeding', produced by Steve Lillywhite is released on the 28th February 2011.

Paul Weller To Design Clothes For Liam Gallagher's Clothing Label

Paul Weller could be set to team up with his friend Liam Gallagher on his Pretty Green label, he has revealed.

The singer said he is in talks with the Beady Eye frontman about collaborating on a clothing line.

''It's still early days really, trying to do a tie up with Pretty Green, hopefully it's going to come off, I can't say for definite yet,'' Weller told BBC 6 Music.

Weller, who released latest album 'Wake Up The Nation' earlier this year, said he may also set up his own clothing range in 2011.

''It's just what I like and what I would like to have in my wardrobe really, it's purely selfish," he said.

Liam Gallagher Shocks The Locals With A Stockport Pub Gig

Stunned revellers were treated to the gig of a lifetime when former Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher played an impromptu set at a Stockport bar.

The rock superstar turned up unannounced at the Town Bar in Heaton Moor, after delivering Christmas presents to mum Peggy, who lives nearby.

Liam chatted with regulars and posed for photographs.

He then stunned punters by grabbing a nearby guitar and performing Oasis and John Lennon classics along with Primal Scream bassist Mani, who was also there and lives nearby.

Town Bar owner Jo Hughes said: “He couldn’t have been any nicer and was chatting with customers, giving kids advice about the music business, he was a perfect gentleman.

“For a while he was tucked away in the corner and we didn’t even know he was there, and I couldn’t believe it when I looked over and realised it was him.

“The acoustic set just topped it all off really, there were about 20 people outside all singing along to John Lennon covers like ‘Shine On’, it was a great atmosphere and a great night.

“He’s welcome back any time, he’s a local lad whose mum lives nearby and he’s told us he’ll be popping in again next time he’s home.”

Liam, 38, is currently preparing for a UK tour with new line up Beady Eye next year, with the band’s debut album ‘Different Gear, Still Speeding’ set for release in February.

Noel Gallagher And Mick Jagger Set For American X Factor?

Simon Cowell really means business in his quest for new judges on American X Factor.

He has already tapped up Rolling Stones lord Mick Jagger and is now after Noel Gallagher.

The ex-Oasis guitarist got a call last week with news of interest from bosses on X Factor USA.

Simon wants a huge name and securing the Manc's sharp-tongued services for next year's show would be a coup. X Factor fan Noel is mulling over the offer.

A source said: "Simon wants to go one better than American Idol, who have Aerosmith frontman Steve Tyler, and has set his heart on British rock 'n' roll royalty - with Noel and Mick top of his shopping list.

"Noel's manager met up for early talks and there is serious wedge on offer."

"Simon is a huge fan of Noel's songwriting and the no-nonsense attitude Oasis brought to Britpop in the Nineties. He'd be great to dish out feedback."

Feedback? It would be more like character assassinations for those inflated Yank egos.

Noel would be ideal but what would be his motivation? He has a young family and a mountain of solo material stored up for the grown-up stage of his career.

He has twice been asked for permission for an Oasis night on The X Factor and refused because the band - who had a No1 with The Importance Of Being Idle - were still on the road.

But he made a rumoured £50,000 when former X Factor winner Leona Lewis wrapped her lungs around their Stop Crying Your Heart Out for her second album Echo last year.

Now brother Liam is busy with new band Beady Eye and fashion label Pretty Green, the time may be right for Noel. Imagine WAGNER singing Vondervall? Priceless.

Meanwhile, Matt Cardle won this year's X Factor but yesterday fellow finalists Rebecca Ferguson and One Direction were each promised record deals by Simon.

His plan for Rebecca is to one day get her on Bond theme duties. She definitely has the pipes. And he has vowed to make One Direction stars, too.

I know what Noel would have to say about 1D: Bobbins.

What The NME Say About The Beady Eye Album

The record is comfortingly familiar and yet frequently surprising. The production on it is far rawer and sparser then Oasis, mainly due to the fact that much of it was recorded in seven weeks.

Some of the songs were originally destined for a a future Oasis record, but others are far more recent.

Many of the old touchstones remain, like for example the Lennon-esque piano hook that nailed-on to single 'The Roller' is built around, or the fondness of big anthems like 'Kill For A Dream' and 'The Beat Goes On'.

But those moments are tempered with the stack-heeled glam-metal of 'Standing On The Edge Of The Noise' the lean 12-bar blues of 'Beatles And Stones' and the six-minute psychedelic lucid dream of 'Wigwam' whose opiated wooziness and wisful "sha-la-la-la-la" chorus amounts to the finest song Liam has ever written.

Taken from the Christmas issue of the NME (In Stores Now) and also digitally from NME.COM.

A number of online stores have 'Different Gear Still Speeding' for pre-sale that includes a DVD that contains a documentary called 'RAK Them Out' and the videos for 'Bring The Light', 'Four Letter Word' and 'Sons Of The Stage'

Liam Gallagher And Gem Archer On The Royal Wedding

Liam Gallagher and Gem Archer have spoken about the Royal Wedding between Prince William and Kate Middleton that will take place on Westminster Abbey on April 29, 2011 to the NME.

Liam said "Good luck to them man, and fair play to them". He admitted that the bank holiday declared in celebration won't have much effect on him or new band Beady Eye.

He said that "We don't observe holidays in this band. It's all one big holiday, one big fucking day off.

Gem Archer said that we will all be sick of it by next year, but admitted "It's class" that most people will enjoy two days off work that week.

Beady Eye On Christmas

Beady Eye members Liam Gallagher, Gem Archer and Andy Bell have discussed with the NME what they will each get up to over Christmas.

Charismatic front man Liam will be getting up to the usual this Christmas, he said "I'll be sitting there all day, getting wankered. Probably eating loads an' all. Same as ever".

When asked what his kids wanted from Santa he said "Loads of fucking toys."

Andy Bell admitted that Christmas is always the same for him filled with kids, dogs, presents, films, TV and booze. Andy said that "I'm just sat there on a sofa with a can of lager in my hand shouting at people.

Beady eyed fans should keep a eye out for Gem Archer who admitted that he will be standing in the back of the queue of his local Argos, taking back unwanted presents.

Liam Gallagher On The Student Riots

Liam Gallagher has said that he thought the recent student riots in London made for great television.

In an interview with the NME, Liam said "I loved it man, fucking loved it. I'm into the violent side of it, I thought it made for great TV. I still think they should get a Fucking job, though".

"I'd have loved to have gone to college and all that when I was that age, but we couldn't afford it, you know. Some of us had to go and dig holes on the site with fucking Murphy and Mick".

"But I'm into people showing their true emotions and getting f**king wound up about things. It's better then being dead ain't it?".
