Balotelli

[sergiokun]

Seosa is right IMO.....the guy is a loose cannon and needs to go......followed quickly by tevez.....once we have suitable replacements.

Think that's a little unfair on tevez. Since he came back nearly a year ago he's been really good for us. Agree on balo though. Now is the time.

Tevez is just running his contract down,we all know that..don't get me wrong he's a great player and would love him to be a city player for years...just don't trust him..was it fair when he fucked off for 6 months?

No it wasn’t and i agree that he is just waiting to get his move to Boca but that is fine IMO as long as he works hard and keeps scoring. Mario has had his chances and more

"we NEED to get rid of him"

someone tell me why

So Edin plays more....

Can't believe some of our fans are that deluded they think dzeko is better than mario. Let's continue to watch dzekos average performances week in week out and watch us lose the league as a result.

He was good enough last season, and Mancini is selecting him.

I'll cheer every goal tevez scores,like everybody else will,like I said great player and he grafts too....just think we should cash in on him.

I'd take Dzeko over Balotelli every day of the week. At least you know Dzeko will contribute something each week. Balotelli might have more talent, but winning at football is about consistency and he just doesn't contribute consistently enough.

Agreed

Shock!........Horror!......Raiola trying to make City drop the asking price?

Think again Mino, we're the ones holding the Full House

this is a pro-Edin rather than an anti-Mario response - before you call people "deluded" answer 2 questions (1) what is the relative mins per goal ratio of the 2 players? (2) how many times has Edin been off the pitch leaving us with 10 men?

I quite like this section:

There are zero chances he moves. But until January 31st, who knows."

Zero chance... but still not sure?

If Milan will offer anything around 18M or more I'll say "Well done, guys! Well done!". I think he is a good guy but we won't miss him at all. It's fair to say no other club is interested in Balotelli, only Milan.



And some numbers from this season:

Edin Dzeko - 29 games - 1488 minutes - 11 goals - 4 assists - 99,2 min/goal
