Mario Balotelli

Having watched a shitload of Balotelli videos over the last few days, I'd have to say that if we can get him concentrated on his football that £16m will be absolute daylight robbery. If you look at that City video with the crazy skills one from his time at Inter it demonstrates that he can tussle with 2/3 defenders and still carve out his own chance, score from outside the box, be on the end of 6 yard tap ins, and bury penalties. He has a cracking set of skills. But it comes back to that 'if.'

What Super Mario can be is the next talismanic figure for the fans, and his team mates.

 

The unknown is his desire. Professionally, he should revel in being back on the big stage at a club that wants him. How much any young multi millionaire, set up for life, needs to show the world what he is worth, rather than just his bank manager, is hard to guess.

 

I think he is going to be a massive hit for us on, and off, the field.

That's a perfect example of how not to deal with a character like Mario, hes the kind of guy that wants to save face even if he knows hes wrong, you don't take him off have a blazing row with him and put him down in public.

 

Rodgers handling of sturridge when he had an attitude about coming off against Everton is, he just gave Dan a death stare and told him get on the bench and speak to him later, you give these kind of guys bollockings behind doors and not in public.

No doubts at all about his all rounded ability and if going forward he can cut out just half of that baggage, we will have hit the jackpot. I don't have a good feeling about this but once he's here just hope and pray it ends well for us.
