This post has been on the verge of being made anytime over last 2-3 months by myself. But now i feel this is the right time for it. Opinion has been divided and split for so long about him. He needed to be given time, you can't argue that he hasn't. Now when was the last time he made headlines for the right reasons on the pitch, the 6-1 against the rags? were in April now, that was October ...exactly. Let's not include shouldering a ball in from 3 inches, it Barry or Milner did that, not a thing would be said.
Driving about with cash, dressing as santa, buying quad bikes etc, the fact of the matter is does he get paid to do this by City, is that why we bought him? ...some people think the sun shines out his arse, take away everything he does OFF the pitch and concentrate on what he should be doing on it, and he's nothing more than just another player. Just who would he be?
All this talk of being the best in the world, he will never ever be in the top 10 in the world. We see glimpses of certain goals, passes. touches ...but we have players who do this on a more constant basis, but because their not mario, it goes unrecognised. Balotelli is overrated and doesn't have this ability that everyone bangs on about, i've had this opinion for well over 5-6 months. Personally i don't see what all the hype is about myself, but some think it's fine for him to turn up every 5 games and do something.
One thing I absolutely HATE are players who have ago at everyone else. Pointing the finger and blame before acknowledging their own mistakes. Balotelli is by far the worse player i have ever witnessed for this. Never played for the team since he arrived, and i don't see that changing. He hasn't done anything to warrant a starting place in this side. Once again an absolute waste of time today, he was more bothered about moaning at everyone else. Kicking players and once again get's himself sent off. You can argue Mancini should have subbed him, and yes he should. But why should we have to have a player in our side we worry about? it shouldn't be like that should it? ...a career ending tackle on Song today, i'll leave it there.
Today was the opportunity for him to step up and show everyone what he can do. He has been poor and when we needed him today, he made a twat of himself once again and yet again let himself down, team mates and the fans. Not the first time is it? ..but he's said he is sorry so it seems all is forgotten and were fine again then? ...no Mario. To many times it's happened now, I genueinely deep down feel so so sorry for the likes of Hart, Vinny, Joloen, Pab Zab and Aguero for having to put up with this shit.
I don't ever want to see this man play in a Manchester City shirt ever again in my lifetime, he's a disgrace and an embarassment to our club. Can't wait to see the back of him, get him away from the club and gone in the summer. Were on the verge of becoming something the club has aimed for, for so long and we have people like him who don't take it seriously. A joker who doesn't appreciate the hard work and effort that's made for him. Everyone for far too long have been blinded by the light by this guy, papering over the cracks with his off-field antics. The sun shines out his arse to most and he's a legend apparently. No, really to call him a legend, just offends those who have legendary status already at our club.
Why always me? ..exactly Mario.
you've made you're bed, now go lye in it.
