Balotelli

[salfordtrueblue]

He's shit and those naive enough to get little hard ons because he is 'a legend' off the pitch need to wake up and realise how bad he is. He puts fuck all effort in and is embarrassingly ineffective. We play with 10 men when he plays. I'm going to go all out and say that in 5 years time we will all be looking on at his failed career as he gets cameo appearances for his local club, Brescia. He is dog wank and no amount of off pitch nonsense can or should cover that up. Fuck him, fuck his ways and fuck his non performances.

Seems about right to me...........

Whole team had a poor performance, move on and stop the scapegoating.

He needs to start playing up front instead of putting him on the wings where he is wasted.

are you pissed ? if he was upfront on his own, the amount of pressure that would be invited onto our team is unthinkable. it scares me more than the prospect of jerome boateng playing cb for city did

Balotelli has a turn of pace, good first touch, good finisher and can hold the ball up. It should have been either Balotelli or Dzeko yesterday, not both.

That hits the nail on the head.
It should have been one or the other, of half a game each.
With Jonno or SWP out wide.
It was Bobby that fucked up with his team selection.
Just because we beat Milan in a friendly with them both in didnt mean
it was going to work yesterday.

I think I've seen enough now. I don't like his personality, but I can live with that as long as he's doing the business on the field. His attitude, application and effort stink and it's a disgrace that a player like Bellamy (who is also prone to having 'moments' off the field) who's attitude and commitment to the cause can not be questioned is being kept out by this myth.

Not trying to be negative, but I really think I've seen enough now and he just does not want to be here, so lets get rid and move on.

Agree with all of the above.

Can't be arsed reading 30 odd pages about this clown, but I don't know why people rave about him.

I agree. Mancini gets a lot wrong IMO but he's entitled to be less than perfect sometimes. Hope he has learned from yesterday. I am not sure he knows why we had no control of the game though - he seemed a bit clueless in his post match interview. Hopefully when his staff review the tapes some clue will shine through.

Overall though we showed enough yesterday to murder mid table teams and make it hard for the top 6 teams .... If we could add some fluidity and cohesion up front we could also dominate the top teams. For the next month or so I think we'll have to rely on hard slogging versus the best teams cos we just aren't any better than that (yet).

Yesterday was a good wake up call. Might be more valuable than the win.

It's not scapegoating because it's not just about yesterday. It's about him as a whole but he stood out yesterday because of his pathetic, childish confrontation with Vidic, his yet again failed attempt at a back heal and the resulting dive to the floor as though he'd been shot from the resulting spin from that failed back heal. He walks about the pitch more concerned about his pout more than he does the need to do his job - score goals. He has done NOTHING to warrant the backing he gets, nothing. I don't know whether it's because we bought him from Milan for a big fee, the fact he fucks about or because he's a fucking idiot, but for some unknown reason people refuse to admit to the fact he is shit and continue to laud all over him. I have seen nothing pre-season to suggest he will have a season that his price tag and reputation suggests he should have, all I have seen is more petulance, more arrogance and more effort from the fucking ball boys. He is a joke of a player, a complete and utter joke and it's about time he was fucked off because if it was anyone else other than the 'wild but loveable Mario', the entire fan base would be on his back just like they have time and time again with shite players.
He needs to look at the effort of one of the two player currently banned from the first team, (Bellers), the effort from Tevez and the desire Dzeko shows to at least try and be effective. If he takes that on board and mans the fuck up and stops arsing about, perhaps he will carve out a career for himself but i've seen nothing to suggest that will happen so in a word, fuck him.

Pigeonho - agree with everything you say about him. Ultimately you're wasting your time in some respects. True footballing intellectuals understand he's a waste of space. Just don't bother arguing or trying to justify your points with numpties on here.

He stood up to the United bully Vidic and he rolled around on the floor ala every Barca players favourite passtime..

Not good enough reasons to get rid...

 

[MAXXI]

Let's end the myth now ,once and for all .This brooding ,undisciplined tool is a liability.
Once again his only contributions were a couple of half hearted flicks,an unnecessary head to head and a writhing around on the turf after an innocuous tackle.
He is not supremely talented,he is not a world beater he is a lazy ,spoilt half wit.
He does not like Manchester and I do not like him. He is a disgrace to our club and Mancini should be man enough and get shut now.

So what you're telling me is he has tricked his way into earning a living as a footballer and getting both us and Inter to sign him. Not only that but you recognise he is not supremely talented whereas the best manager in the world who worked with him day to day said he was one of the most talented people he had ever worked with. I think I'm going to believe Mourinho over someone who has probably seen him play less than 50 times. It really is laughable. Self appointed football experts.

he is not a world beater? It really is laughable? heheh "God please forgive him" said Balo

Something is wrong when a player with half the natural ability at most is twice as effective - Wellbeck - who is younger by the way......
