Having heard some quotes from after the game seems as though Balo had a total nightmare however having watched the game back i didnt think he played that badly (certainly not as bad as i expected having heard aforementioned interview)
I know the timing of his flicks etc may have been inappropriate but trying to drill that out of a player is curbing his natural game and talent.
I know he is not everyone's cup of tea but i think some are a little too harsh. If that had been Ronaldo trying something similar at 2-0 down i doubt anyone would have abtted an eyelid
That's the problem, he doesn't have much talent yet he and others think that there is a Ronaldo esque performance just around the corner. There isn't, he's bang average
I can count on 1 hand the amount of times his 'talent' has got him on the back pages rather than his 'personality'
Fair enough. I have not seen enough of him to formulate a strong opinion. He does always seem to be in the headlines for non football related activities surely though if he was only average he would of been fucked off ages ago. I got the impression that the reason he was tolerated and kept at the club was that the potential would eventually come good.
Why else would he still be there?
