Bona fide strikers. Like Arsenal, who could well be our major rivals for a top four place again, we have a big block of good midfielders but a relatively limited set of striking options. This signing puts us ahead by some distance IMHO, but it's a long season, we're the team taking a big step up in terms of number of games and high pressure matches (with the spectre of Hodgson haunting us with his tried and tested means of playing our players with niggling injuries for England), and for that reason I don't think we can afford to just assume we'll muddle through. The top teams are spoilt for choice. We need four strikers.
"MILANELLO-AC Milan is at work on the floor behind the gymnasium of Milanello. Mario Balotelli, for which negotiation is in progress, is working with his teammates."
No wonder he wants to leave, Milan are cutting corners by getting players to do all their construction work.
These things go round in cycles.
He already knows the city well.
Not well enough to go to a decent strip club though...

My sentiments exactly.
What was the story ?
That's one of my favourite football pictures ever
Just look at his fucking face there. Pure I-don't-give-a-fuck-swagness

He must have met @nealmac then!
I don't think we need 4 strikers, not if we basically play 1 up front. I'd perhaps prefer someone better than Lambert as the third choice (Origi!!) but he's signed now so I suppose we have to factor him in as a significant part of the squad.
City have 4 but they play 4-4-2. Chelsea have 3, and one is 36 and another is Torres.

Problem is Balottelli is even worse than studge at closing down players. Opposition defenders are gonna get an easy ride this season. Of all the players, fucking balotelli. If Rodgers can fix this fuckwit he'll be hailed as a miracle worker. I hope this isn't rodgers ego at work thinking he can do what previous managers have failed to do.
This will be pilfered. Lets just hope we don't lose 1-0 to Arsenal with an Ozil winner!
I imagine he's not his first choice, in fact he even said a few weeks ago he wasn't interested. When you don't have many options, you have to take what's available, it's not an ego thing.
It's probably more the fact no one else wants to join us and whilst we've signed Reus, we've agreed for him to stay in Dortmund for a year out of respect to Jurgen Kloop.
Do they really have to tweet everytime he calls his mum?
To be fair, we've got Steve Peters and none of the rest do. AFAIC he's the miracle worker.
God that would suck.
I know what you mean, but that wouldn't be my first thought when considering a squad that includes
Sturridge
Sterling
Balotelli
Coutinho
Lallana
Markovic
I suppose we could use Markovic in that role.
Sturridge needs someone alongside to drag defenders away in order to be at his most effective.
Lambert did that last weekend. If Lambert can do it then Ballotelli sure as fuck can.

Again, the point is he's not a bona fide striker. We've got loads of players who can try to play in that role, but that's another issue. If we're going to compete against the likes of City, all season, we need more than players helping out by playing out of position. It's an area we need to strengthen.
