Balo's attitude...

You have to laugh when the crowds are chanting "balotelli give us a smile" but to be fair he delivered on goals and grins today. A little lazy towards the end but good to know we can bag 4 goals when Tevez isn't on the pitch.
 
Just seen his penalties. Absolutely superb. He just has the most brilliant way of making his opponents look like idiots. Anyone who wouldnt want him in our team is mental!

8 goals in 11 games... and he is still "bedding in" or "gelling"

what will he do when he's been here for a season?

ffs.. how about our first 40 goal per season striker? ??
is that asking too much?

Ballotelli, 30 goals
Tevez, 20
everyone else 5 or so..

should make for an entertaining season :)
 
Roberto Mancini admitted Manchester City's hat-trick hero Mario Balotelli is homesick, after watching the Italian striker star in his side's 4-0 win over Aston Villa at Eastlands.

Balotelli is believed to be considering a return to Italy after struggling to adapt to life in England since his £24 million switch to City from Inter last summer. The 20-year-old scored three goals against Villa - two of which were penalties - but spent much of the game sulking and barely celebrated his strikes.

Mancini revealed after the game that Balotelli is having a tough time off the pitch but believes the forward is a "good guy" who has a long-term future at the club.

Mancini said: “I think he is homesick because he's 20 years old, away from his family for the first time and it's normal that he is missing his family. I don't think think it's a long-term problem.

“He celebrated after the first goal. It was a step forward. It's important that he's smiling – but it's more important that he scored three goals.

“Mario is a good guy. He's different on the pitch because he likes to give the image of being serious and not liking to play.”
