Balotelli.

[Hooch]

There's a large "African" contingent building at the club.

Adebayor
Toure
Toure
Vieira - Senegal
Boateng - Ghana
Kompany - Congo
Balotelli - Ghana
Nimely
Boyata - Not too sure

Boateng plays for Germany... Vieira is French... Kompany is Belgian... Balotelli is Italian... Boyata, another Belgian...

What are you getting at? Or are you just stupid?

He's talking about their African heritage, I think all the players have one African parent, but Paddy V was born in Dakar

I think Balotelli is not Ade's competitor but will play mostly on the right wing in the Mancini's 3 front-man tactic instead.

Adebayor - Togo
Toure - Cote d'Ivorie
Toure - Cote d'Ivorie
Vieira - Senegal
Boateng - Ghanaian roots
Kompany - Congolese roots
Balotelli - Ghanaian roots
Nimely - Liberia
Boyata - Congolese roots

So yeah you have a point despite some ignorant posters jumping on your back.

Cringeworthy responses. As seversal have already said, they have all an African background (i.e. they could have elected to play for an African country)

Too complete a bit more of the list, I think Nimely might be Liberia, no idea on Boyata.

Not bad. Not bad at all.

Does anybody else remember that time when Arsenal fielded a team where all the outfield players were black. David Ponytail Seamen was the only white man on the pitch for them.

Haha.. I come back to a bunch of idiotic responses. Jeez.


In the article, Adebayor made a point about Balo being African and thus is looking forward to meeting him. I was merely commenting on how we actually now have a sizeable number of "Africans" (I know some choose to play elsewhere, hence the inverted commas).
