Re: Balotelli
If he went to the Dippers I doubt that he would form a good partnership with Daniel 'Ball Greedy' Sturridge.

Re: Balotelli
No idea why any City fan would want Balo back, all he did was cause trouble on-field (dont care about off-field stuff), i cant remember many if any performances where he was excellent, the FA Cup Final against Stoke was probably as good as he played for us, and that was hardly worthy of world class status some people seem to think hes at or going to reach. Ok to touched that ball onto Aguero, but overall for City he was poor. Hope he goes to LFC, i'd rather they got Balo than someone like Falcao.

Re: Mario Set To Join Liverpool
Yeah 30 goals in 54 games for Milan, really rubbish!
Milan are looking to seriously reduce their wage bill with no European football this season and will listen to reasonable offers for most of their high earners.
willipp said:Lets hope he doesnt sign in time for Mondays game if he does sign. It would be typical Mario to score against, not celebrate and then later get sent off. He is great for the prem though as he keeps things very interesting and would be a good signing for them if he can keep things about his football on the pitch.
However, if he can't make it at his boyhood club Milan, then i question if he will ever make it anywhere.

Re: Mario Set To Join Liverpool
Yes but with Mario it isnt about the goals he scores, its about all the other crap that comes with it. If he was scoring those goals and was not up to his usual antics they would no way consider selling him for 14 million.

Re: Balotelli
His main problem is that he only has 'his day' two or three times a season
Not good enough for us, wouldn't even get on our bench

Had his time with us and were grateful for seeing his ability.Bruun said:Headline of transfer talk on goal: AC Milan want just £14m for Balotelli, for that price i'd definately want him back!
Has had ample opportunity to develop as a player and a person, but sadly has failed and remains too imature to come back to the Etihad.

Re: Balotelli
Off the top of my head I can think of about 4 performances where he was actually excellent
- Stoke FA Cup Final
- United 1-6 (But so was everyone else)
- Villa at home where he scored a hat-trick IIRC
- Norwich at home
Can anyone think of any others?

Re: Balotelli
Very very harsh assessment.
The Milan team Mario plays in isn't all that and we all know that strikers, even the best ones, need service, which he hasn't got there.
If you look at his goals/minutes ratio during his time at City it tells a very different story to "his day" only coming two or three times a season.
Personally I think for Liverpool it'll be a fantastic signing. He's a bona fide match winner, and will thrive playing in front of Sterling and Coutinho, even Lallana.
For me if they get him, it's a certainty they'll finish in the top 4 again, which is nice because it means its a certainty the rags won't!

If we did, we still won't get anything if Milan sell him for less than they pay for him.bobmcfc said:Did we have any sell on clause with marios deal ?
