Watching this video has got me in the mood for tommorrow

[more lazy than useless]

The times they are a changing.

No, I don't mean because we've got players like Ballotelli, but there are seven replies to the op without 'He hasn't scored enough' or, better still 'does he track back?' ;-)

Hopefully this latest set of treatments has sorted the persistant problems.

I dont see a problem starting him, if he is meant to be fit then if he is going to break down he will break down regardless of who he is playing.

Also, the sooner we get him up to speed the better. Can only help with this run in. And all these home games should help.

The ting with Balotelli is, that I don't think he actually ever gives 100% and never had, NOT due to a lack of commitment or interest, but simply because he hasn't had the need to. He's just in a different class than most other footballers.

Here in the PL he is starting to realize he will actually have to try a little harder than what he is used to, and when he does... well then he'll set the league on fire.

Look at him run when he really needs to, - who could keep up with him? I doubt even Ash Cole could.

We should be very happy he now plays for our club.

qaulity when he scored that penalty against roma..

he was getting loads of racist abuse and he shut them right up!

really hope he stays injury free now and shows us what hes made off.

class act!!

the tongue pulling at the roma fans is piss funny. the roma defender is telling him off for it, so mad mario goes for another. i love that childish, "fuck you" attitude he displays.

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Keep tappin' them in Mario.
That will do me.

The beauty of Balotelli is that a goal can come from anywhere in the oppo's half, and at any time. Have yer managed 30 secs in and from just within the centre circle yet, Mario?

 

[The Silver Surfer]

He's just what we need, although he hasn't done anything yet with us *big picture*
I'm already dreading the day he leaves us !!

Just hope there will be a youtube vid of him doing all that and more in a City shirt !

 

[sickboyblue]

Takes the best penalties I've ever seen.

Love to see this guy back.

If we can keep him fit and happy we might just have the best player in the world in a few years.

Power, pace, skill, pure arrogance and great technique, this lad's got it all.

You are confusing arrogance with confidence.

But agree with the rest of your post we have one of, if not the the best young players in the world in Balo and more important the right man in charge to bring out the best in him.

I really believe if he would have been injury free this season he would have finished top scorer at the club, and has a goos chance of still doing that.

What a guy, what a player. It will be a pleasure to see him back. Love his attitude of not giving a fuck and thinking he is the bees knees, love his attitude of "fuck you" to opposition players, love his attitude of scoring a 30 yard free kick in the champions league is nothing unusual.

We haven't yet seen a spectacular Balotelli special, 2 pens, 2 tap ins and a decent volley has warmed us up, hopefully he'll bag a few tommorrow and be the main man to lead us to champions league qualification and a trophy or two!

In two to three years time he will be mentioned in the same sentance as Messi and Ronaldo are now.

Mr Samaras also looked fantastic on Youtube













Balo is from what I have seen of him pretty classy and as others have posted with a run will be the main man.
