But please, PLEASE, at leaste make an attempt to argument your smack-talking (if you can) with facts...otherwise your claims are as credible as fart in the winds.
Example - with all due respect (I don't dislike the guy), please don't even COMPARE Balo to Dzeko.
Dzeko has won Bundesliga.
Dzeko was Bundesliga's second leading scorer (26 goals, 0 penalty kicks) while winning the title.
Dzeko has won Bundesliga's leading scorer title the year after that.
Dzeko has already scored 10+ goals again before City bought him.
Now - tell me what the f*ck did Balo accomplish so far.
Ooo, that's right - he accomplished NOTHING! So to even imply equality or even worse, superiority (?) of Balo to Dzeko is flat out r.i.d.i.c.u.l.o.u.s.
Yes, I am a bit biased towards Edin, but will still beat any of these bashers with facts and stats only, preferences aside...cause this is getting obnoxious.
Balotelli has accomplished nothing?
Balotelli is 4 years younger than Dzeko but Balotelli has won:
Serie A 07/08
Serie A 08/09
Serie A 09/10
Coppa Italia 09/10
Suppercoppa italia 08UEFA Champions League 09/10
Golden Boy trophy 10
And so far at City Balotelli has 8 goals in 13 games, Dzeko has 2 goals in 10 games.
The facts seem to be in Balotellis favour.
I'm not against Dzeko I think he'll be a good player and one we need the thing is, balotelli is miles better.

Haha tell you what pal I was at game again yesterday and he looked dump again against poss poor opposition. The guy is one paced and has the first touch of Fred west. Don't know what glimpses you have seen.

Hes not quick enough or talented enough to fit properly into our system.
Balotelli and Tevez is a far stronger partnership at the moment in my opinion.
With respect, how on God's earth has Balotelli done more to convince you of his worth than Dzeko?
