Balotelli.

Even if they have decided to sell and agreed a fee, it still doesn't mean diddly unless THE PLAYER himself decides he will come here. Last I heard (I may be out of date) his agent was saying he's still considering his options, i.e. undecided.

morning folks. I've been wondering, if/when we sign Mario, do we lose either Tevez or Ade? I hope not as I can see the signings bob has made (silva,johnson) being tailored to supply ade with tevez as his partner. So where does mario fit in?

Squad rotation. There will be plenty of games this season with the europa league games and if god forbid tevez/ade got injured we dont really want to be relying on Rocky as back up do we! And we need others in to push each and every player for their position.

Mancini obviously doesn't fully trust Adebayor to deliver and we're short of cover up front, Bellers & Santa Cruz may be on their way, not that we'd notice in the case of the latter. Mario also plays wide right.

I think he does trust Ade, its just that we could end up playing nearly 70 games this season, Tevez will suffer at some point because of his playing in the world cup. We need 4 top class forward. Tevez, Ade and Balotelli are 3, unfortuately i think Bellamy will leave and RSC will be sold...That leaves one place...Mmmmmmm i wonder who?

 

[john@staustell]

When you consider that Bellers was used exclusively left midfield, we went through last season with Tevez, Ade and Santa as strikers. All of these were missing for serious periods and we were very lucky to scrape through.

How anyone thinks we therefore need to lose a striker if we sign one is beyond me. We need at least one extra, if not two!

Mario is 19, I reckon Ade will be in front of him in the pecking order, for a year or 2 at least.

Ade will be our top scorer this coming season.

Totally agree with this,

I think Ade will be on fire this season, he has been able to put a very troubled, interrupted season behind him, of which 14 goals wasn't too bad a return (and still 9th in whole of Premier League). He has had a little baby and seems happy and focused on the next season, there has been nothing from the player himself that he has ever wanted out (only talk he has been offered to other clubs)

He now has Johnson, Silva, SWP and maybe Milner to supply the bullets for him and So i fully expect him to threaten the golden boot this year

Inter Milan have confirmed there is a "dialogue" with Manchester City about striker Mario Balotelli, and they are "waiting and considering" but have yet to take a definite decision on his future (Italian Sky Sports, 1150 BST).
