Haha, yeah, Bunga-bunga Berlusconi strikes again.
Man, am I glad we didn't go after Balotelli when it was being mooted a while ago.

I'd still go after him ... Get him to meet Ronaldo (the original) and try and get something out of one of the most talented kids ... Yes he's an immature, brash twat at times (but then again, what talented footy players - even those who've achieved little - aren't?)

Strongly disagree, Wizzy. For one thing not all players are like that, but for another (and more importantly) Balotelli's been given numerous chances already and wasted them all. He IS immensely talented, but that's not worth a light if he can't make it count.
The one way I can see him fulfilling that talent is if he goes home to Italy - he's too immature to make it anywhere else IMO, probably always will be - and drops down a level, to a team which is still in Serie A but gets less publicity, with a good coach who can try and get past all the feathers Balotelli keeps in his head instead of brains. IF that works, he might get back into a top Serie A side eventually.

He's a complete loon Wizzy

He said recently he'd stop his extravagance if he got to meet Ronaldo - his idol. Let him meet him ... and if that fails, whatever.
But I don't care if he's a loon - he's got talent and someone WILL harness it ...
Players like him are a rarity - it's worth the risk.

There were probably people saying the same about Cassano - who would be more appropriate for Balotelli to meet. He's ended up playing well at a mid-table club, but he's wasted his talent.
Either way, I don't see what meeting someone (particularly Ronaldo) has got to do with his behaviour. The fact that he's bringing it up even is mental.

Can't diss Cassano!
By the time he was 23 he'd fornicated with over 400 women. 8)

Christ, this kid's almost on my level!
But Balotelli is complete cock whose complete lunacy far outweighs his admittedly considerable talent.
The bib-saga the other week povided a great insight into the mentality of the lad.
Anyone else, I'd have just laughed off as 'arr he's having a nightmare here' but with him it shows him up to be a thick bastard who wants everything handed to him in life just because he's a good footballer.
You'd think he would have some humility too being raised by Foster parents and not having a great life as a kid etc.

I love Balotelli. I wouldn't want him playing for us, though.
