Re: So, what next for Balotelli?

by Helmer Mon Jan 26, 2015 3:21 pm

wait for his next chance and try to prove himself. I dont have much expectations from him in this season. He might still get few appearances because Rodgers may go for an occasional diamond formation. I know 3-4-3 is working great but I still believe that when Studge comes back, BR may go back to 4-3-3 depending on the game off course.

I think from the next season, he will have more of understanding of what everyone around him is doing, so may be he will learn to adapt a bit to Rodgers style. Then it also depends on if Rodgers will be still at Liverpool in the next season.

So is Liverpool looking to move him on already?

So you definitely want him around at Liverpool.. I was of the impression that you guys weren't happy with what he has brought to the table thus far.. hmm

There's an indifference vibe going on around Mario. I seriously couldn't care less if we sold him or if he stayed. I think he perhaps deserves one last chance with Sturridge before the knives come out but sell him or keep him, makes no matter.

by Helmer Mon Jan 26, 2015 3:47 pm

He is the most skillful striker we have after Sturridge and (I believe) unlike that deal rejecting-money greedy-pos Sterling, his finishing is better :coffee:

by Sri Mon Jan 26, 2015 3:49 pm

Jokes apart.. What were the specific reasons conducive to this indifference though?

I thought he would fit in very comfortably into Sturrdige's shoes (not literally but I guess you know that).

Think he could work well with Sturridge tbh, he's not a CF and must play off one at all times otherwise he looks meh.

Just play him at CM :coffee:

He's a nice guy, but at the wrong career. Move
Him on and best of luck Mario. Joke people think he's a good finisher, he has zero goals in PL after 11 starts. Even dreaming Borini managed a goal....

by DeletedUser#1 Mon Jan 26, 2015 5:59 pm

Only Liverpool fans would slag off one of the top 3 most talented and best U-20 players in the world who's already performing there and nearly took them within a slip of a league title in order to defend a player who hasn't done crap for them and can't even be bothered to press up front and make any runs

Laughing

Balotelli is the Italian Babel. He wo'nt be in football business in 6 years. No slight, great lad..but jsut the wrong carreer

by McAgger Mon Jan 26, 2015 6:16 pm

@Sri

Read Sepp's comment, that's basically where the indifference stems from. Balotelli just doesn't seem to care about football, so we don't really care about him.

by Sri Mon Jan 26, 2015 6:24 pm

Really such a shame though.. From one of the most exciting young strikers in the world to this..

by Hapless_Hans Mon Jan 26, 2015 7:07 pm

Wait what? "Balotelli doesn't seem to care about football" ?! Laughing

Not like he dedicated his life to training and playing it smh

I am convinced there's more where that came from.. hmm

Well he can try the job of being benzema back up, its a rather nice position. Well paid, trophies, lots of time off, great city. There are the occasional monkey chants in spanish stadia but the food is pretty good
