No surprise that Liverpool found Mario Balotelli was going for a song
Mario Balotelli has talent but Liverpool will have to work at making the pros outweigh the cons on his return to the Premier League....
A small thing, perhaps, but Google “Balotelli training hard” to find the old YouTube clip of the Milan squad running around the side of a pitch at their training ground. One by one, they have to jog through cones then jump over a series of low hurdles. It is nothing too strenuous – the hurdles are barely six inches off the ground – but Balotelli is having one of his W-for-whatever days. He moves in between the cones, sees what is coming and, accidentally on purpose, misses out the jumps, nonchalantly jogging past while his team-mates complete the exercise. It’s 15 seconds of classic Mario. .
All the press are writing him off, fantastic.
I'd say its about 60/40 in favour of him succeeding from what I've read and seen so far.
Gotta say Dwight Yorke is the worst pundit ever
it's hard not to think that b-rodge's 'categorical' comment was a negotiation tactic with either milan, balotelli, or his agent.
I think it was pretty obvious I wasn't speaking literally and that I was implying the majority, which seems to be the case watching sky sports and listening to talkSPORT.All of them, except for the ones that aren't.
Nicked from twitter...
Everyone says he's 'round the bend, Ballo, Ballo
You will never walk alone with us, Ballo, Ballo
He scores a goal, sets fireworks off
He flexes his muscles in front of the Kop
Balotelli, Liverpool's 45

Nothing does more to put a damper on my enthusiasm for a new signing than you tragic cunts trying to think up songs for the first few weeks.
