Dave Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Well that's why he's not capable of doing it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Still think he has the potential to score 35-40 goals a season, just needs to settle down at a club properly. Liverpool are definitely betting on his potential, which is world class, but it will be no small task getting it out of him. Think they wanted to replace Suarez with a top striker with all the talk of Falcao, Cavani types, but they've been turned down. So the move kind of makes sense. I guess Balotelli has never played for a team that is as offensive minded, and so it may really click into place. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the current City team would had been better than the one under Mancini for him to play in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Aye very few are capable of such amounts, is he capable of topping the league scoring charts? Sure but I don't think I'd go further than that. He's well capable of doing it IMO. Unreal natural talent. Just needs to sort out his attitude. Don't disagree but 40?! Outside of Ronaldo and Messi who has done that? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Still I'm struggling to think of many who have reached 40. Not even Suarez did. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRD Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 There's no way he'd hit 40 goals. That's reserved for the absolute top-notch players like Ronaldo, Messi and maybe Suarez, and you need them as the main man at the potential detriment of other players. Which Liverpool is not about.

Tooj Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Balotelli is average when you break down each of the key components needed to be a great forward... Yeah he's only strong, quick, excellent techincally and a good finisher as well... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah he's only strong, quick, excellent techincally and a good finisher as well... He's strong but not the strongest and shows it by throwing himself around looking for non existent fouls... He's not quick and his caught up by defenders regularly... He's not a clinical finisher and his technique is not excellent with his heading very average also... Good penalty taker I'd give anybody that though but by and large I think he's hype with a lot still to prove... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incognito Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 I think they'll finish top 4 again. I think Balotelli will be excellent between Sturridge and Sterling. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Froggy Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Well that's why he's not capable of doing it. I believe at 24 he's capable of sorting his attitude out. Everyone is talking about lazy he is and he scored 30 in 54 for Milan. If he does manage to sort himself out he'll be scary good. A one in one player for sure, especially since he takes free kicks and excellent penalties. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Ballote I think they'll finish top 4 again. I think Balotelli will be excellent between Sturridge and Sterling. It certainly improves their chances. He's a maverick but he's also got the X factor that might just make up for what they've lost in Suarez. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
