cookie i dont know why you bother with the Mario bum boys, you will never win. They think he is god, But the majority know different. there are about 10 pro Marios on here, and the rest are against or indifferent. Leave them in their own little lala land
Get off that donkey you are riding and read what I actually wrote.

Pffft, kids!
 
We all know people like Mario who never seem to mature.
It is up to Mancini whether he play for City or not, he is charge not us.

Mancini see something in Mario that the majority don't and I hope Mario grows up and becomes a fantastic footballer.
 
I say get rid of him and sign

"Frustrating" is the word that came to mind every time I used to think of Balotelli. These days it's "Piss taker".
I used to be frustrated, because you can see the talent there. But more often than not it wasn't shown. If all the off field antics came hand in hand with match winning performances, I wouldn't have a problem. I work with lads who mess around all day, but are getting on with their work and get the job done. I also work with some lads who mess around all day, but fck all gets done. After a while it get frustrating, because you realise that the people who are working hard, are having to take up their slack. If it was the odd day, it wouldn't be so bad, but over time you realise they're just piss takers. It is not all about results either. Some lads don't achieve as much as others, but along as you can see them trying, it don't seem so bad.

My problem with Balotelli, is that he pisses about, gets fck all done and doesn't even care.
Walking straight down the tunnel when subbed, disappearing back home even when we win something, and his general lack of any sense that he loves the people who are paying his wages (us) doesn't endear himself to me. Where was he when we won the FA cup and the league? Even with all the problems we had with Tevez, he at least made the open top bus.

Bottom line....talented maybe, work shy definitely. My opinion, he doesn't give a shit, and he's a piss taker. I don't hate him, but he is taking up a place in the team for somebody else to take...

That is a fabulous assesment of how I feel about Mario. I just wonder, if he has the capability of learning from Tevez as to how to re integrate into a club and team and proving your worth. I'm prepared to give him that chance, as we did for Tevez, but i'm not holding much hope. With Tevez, with all his mistakes he made, he had history to show what a hard working fantastic talent he can be and how valuble a player he can make himself, and he has turned it around to his credit. Mario has no history of showing he is a hard working team player - here layeth the doubts.

Oh we still talking about this idiot?

Embarrassing, Piss poor man management from Mancini aswell.
At least its only a very small minority who still stick up for him and his crap performances.

Sigh, once again the vast majority want improved performances from.Mario.

Some think he is capable of delivering improved performances, others don't.

Only a small minority seem determined to continually misrepresent peoples opinions on the matter.
 
For someone like Sterling age can be an excuse, he is still young, he has to be mature, he has to learn etc.

Every Pool fan friends say Sterling can be very good but he better not goes down on the Balotelli way. But he is only 18.

These things are told to Balotelli since he is 17 and now he is 22 years old. And the fans/his managers are talking about that he has to take it seriously, he has to behave well, he has to respect his club and himself, he has to train hard ffs. etc.

In this sense pretty little changed at him in last 4-5 years.

Mourinho couldnt change him, Mancini couldnt change him.

Unfortunately we spent a fortune on him to come to the same lesson.

And clearly Balotelli as a player is better than he was when we signed him (at least more experienced), he had a good EC too, still we will have to sell him on smaller price than we got him. That's how much we overpaid for him...

This season he scores a goal every 5-6 weeks average and we hear every month he doesnt train as hard as he should be.
 
Did I hear right earlier that Mario is poorly and not available for games over the next 2 weeks?
 
My one and only criticism of Mancini is he still perseveres with Balotelli after all he's done or hasn't done even. He just can't seem to accept that he can't get the best out of him and that he signed a dud. There is no shame in cutting your losses especially with a lost cause like Mario. Get him sold Bobby before he costs you your job.
