i really want to throw my tv out the window when SSN repeat Mario's interview.

They are all educated to degree level, so it surprises me (don't ask me why) that they cannot even listen and repeat what he is saying. It would not surprise me if the translation was not 100% either!

Plus he is not even moaning about it, he is just saying he is home sick but the whole experience will develop him as a player... so ITS HIS CHOICE FFS!

Why must someone at our club give the world another reason to drag the MCFC name through dirt every week. Even if it is misinterpreted or altered slightly, they should know what will happen. Mancini needs to muzzle him. Do we hear Silva, Kompany, De Jong, or Dzeko open their mouths regularly, and I'm sure Silva gets homesick for Gran Canaria regularly.

I'm almost certain Silva said something in one of his interviews about missing Gran Canaria at times but of course Silva isn't as "quotable" as Mario. Players are bound to miss their home towns at times, it's only natural. I don't see any need to "muzzle" Balotelli just because the media are a bunch of shits, how does the interview "drag the MCFC name through dirt" anyway?

Talented he may be, but we all know deep down inside there's little difference between Balo and Carlos. I fully expect him to start agitating properly for a move next summer.

Anelka syndrome.....

We should just enjoy him while we have him and rest assured when he goes he'll get adequately replaced.

Can somebody post the interview if it's available. Thanks.

It's hilarious how loads jump to his defence. Must have been misquoted etc.

Guy is a good footballer who could be exceptional. However as a human being he's a grade A prick!

When he goes I won't shed a tear that's for sure.

As someone else pointed out he is happy with the club, manager and team mates so I feel we should let the rest wash over us. He maybe could have kept the negatives to himself but I suppose if this is his opinion then so be it. It is hardly ground breaking. I think as fans we should look at the positives, the players who have come to the club and have settled and embraced the club and Manchester quietly and with no fuss, Dzeko, Silva, Kolarov, De Jong, Kompany, Zabs amongst others. For me this says Manchester is doing something right. I believe it is a mind set that maybe comes with maturity. As long as Mario and maybe Tevez, if he stays, do their jobs on the pitch maybe we just have to learn to take the rough with the smooth. Makes me recognise how lucky we are with our other players and appreciate them even more.

Has anyone who is lambasting Balotelli actually read/heard the interview ? All he says is that he misses Brescia his home town NOT Milan and he doesn't like to live in Manchester. What else did you think a 20 year old away from home without his family and friends would say? That he would say Manchester is the dogs bollocks and who the hell needs home , family , friends etc.? That said , he should have kept it to himself.
