Richards & Balotelli in training ground bust up

[Papadopoulos]

Poor show yet again from Mario. How longer can the club put up with these incidents from this man? it's quite frankly embarrassing.

I appreciate the guy has got talent and some fans like him for some of the "funny" things he does off the pitch but for me he has a permanent self destruction button and you have to question how far is he off actually chinning someone??.

He's a liability.

lol, since when is having the worlds top young player a liability? Some people are so daft its incredible.

I fail to see how this is newsworthy? Its a professional environment and the players are going hard at it, of course they are going to lose there cool occasionally. Jesus christ, I'd be more annoyed if they were having a laugh and faffing about, rather than getting stuck in. Non issue for me.

Im sorry, but a player who has fights with 3 team mates within a year is newsworthy. Balotelli needs to grow up. I also think there’s a lot of hypocrites here who will pretend everything is good, and then will turn on him when he does something stupid in a big game and cost the team. The signs are there now……he needs to get his act together. People need to stop downplaying his bad behaviour and act like every player does it

I'm pretty sure other players have had tussles at City as well but people wouldn't take as much of a shine to it unless it had something to do with Mario....... Love the fact people are quick to blame Mario yet it was Micah who struck out first.

This is what happens if you have an open training area. I still find it baffling how a club with an array of talent which matches anything in the world can have training sessions in full spotlight of whoever wants to watch. This indeed will go on at every club day in, day out. If United had open sessions and Rooney fought with Evra, for example, it would be exactly the same as this. I know we're due to move but by now, with the press out in force with a keen eye on what we do, I would have thought measures would have been taken to keep training sessions private.

On a lighter note though;

Oh, Balotelli, he's a striker, he brawls with pals.

Not one picture showing Mario as the aggressor. It's Micah losing his shit but some of you have taken the press bait hook,line and sinker.

Maybe those lads won't be assed but what about Mancini?

Richards gone in the summer?

Jerome Boateng springs to mind.

Another non-story posted on bluemoon. Why?

If i wanna read a load of sensationalised shite designed to disrupt the team and club then i'd buy a shit red-top.
I can't be bothered reading the thread but surely someone must've pointed out that training ground shenanigins happen every day at every club.

'Richards gone in the summer' my fuckin arse.

The pictures don't help obviously, but so many of the national sport writers are gooners, I'm not surprised to see them milking this, 48 hours before the game.
If it hadn't been this, they would have interviewed Frimpong to tell us how shit Nasri is!!!

This is what Doug Higginbottom, who was there at the time, had to say about it.

I actually didn't see the "thing" that started the confrontation but only all the aftermath. No punches thrown and just Micah losing it for a moment and wanting to get to Mario. Storm in a teacup stuff with a few players getting in the middle with Mancini to calm it down.

if Micah crosses the ball for Balo's winner on sunday who the fucks gonna care?

i dont even care now, it was probably didactic as an imposter.

I'm sure he phoned 'Drive' on talksport last night. He was leading Durham and Gough a merry dance if it was him. They were implying he was lying and he wasn't there. Good caller actually.

Not all black people look alike.

And I love both players in question I think its nothing I know they are very good friends.
