The Life and Times of 'Entertaining' Mario Balotelli

Had one great game v Germany in euros and......anything else ?

 

17 goals in 32 matches for City last season whilst not playing regularly.

 

People like to play dumb with Balotelli. His general level of performance at the Euros was superb. Ran England ragged. Scored a great goal against Ireland. Showed great composure and awareness to find Aguero against QPR when a lesser player would've turned and smashed it.

Think it was Sewelly (?) who propounded that Balotelli ought to be higher up the pecking order than Dzeko last season while Dzeko was really out of form. We discussed it in circles and ended on "let's wait and see". I think Man City have kept the better, more reliable player personally. Think he's actually outscored Aguero and Tevez this season with far less game time (not that, that is the sole measure of a forward - cf Defoe).

 

Who knows what Balotelli will go on to accomplish, if anything, though. He's got talent, but not nearly enough to justify his idiocy - which is considerable.
