"Time To Go Mario"

When I think of when we looked at our peak level of ability I look at the first 30 minutes of the away game against Chelsea. Balotelli started with Aguero, and not only did they both play very well but they both played incredibly as a pairing.
I think it CAN work, they're both young players who've only played a handful of games together. They just need time.

This is in the context of Skash saying he is harshly treated I was pointing out on occasions I think he makes it easy for the referee and highlighting examples. Your right mate he didnt get a sending booking, but the point is its not neccessary to put himself in that situation.

Yes mate other players have done it, other players have made bad tackles that havent been punished. To me that is the most futile of defences. If as Skash says he is harsly punished, why is he making a rod for his own back?

You say he puts himself in situations to get treated the way he is too often but apart from the Kiev and West Brom(where Mulumbu was literally holding on to Balotelli's leg) sendings-off, most of his bookings have been when he's ''tracking back'' or getting ''stuck in''(classic example Arsenal away). Yes, I'm sure a few are for dissent but Yaya is even worse for this and he's one of the senior/important players. Don't even get me started with Shrek on that one. Players mouthing off when they don't agree with a referee is probably the most common ''crime'' players commit in the league which more often than not go unpunished unless you're Balotelli. Personally, i'd prefer it if Mancini gives him strict instructions not to tackle at all as he's poor at them but surely, its commendable that he's putting such effort in, even if it leads to silly bookings?
How much does Shrek mouth off? Every match. How many times was he booked? Once. Been Balotelli it would have been a booking every time. Watch the video of our season and look at Mario's goals superb everyone of them. Love him.
