I'm not judging him on today but since he's been at City and I'm yet to see what all the fuss is about with him. I don't see much intelligent off the ball movement from him, there's little or no work-rate and not much end product from him, the talent he has is currently being wasted, for whatever reason...
Once Aguero is in the team and Bobby gets in the other attacking player or two he's after signing I can't see Balotelli figuring as a starter much, unless there's a vast improvement in his performances. I won't be holding my breath for that to happen though.
