ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC"

[Huyton Layne]

I'm glad he's signing for them. Never liked him or people thinking he's a Zlatan.

"I told him, if you played with me 10 years ago I would give you every day maybe one punch in your head. There are different ways to help a guy like Mario. I don't speak with him every day, otherwise I would need a psychologist, but I speak with him because I don't want him to lose his quality. If Mario is not one of the best players in the world it will be his fault, because he has everything. Mario can be one of the top players in Europe. I don't want him to lose his talent." - Roberto Mancini

I can see Balotelli taking the mick out of us in both derbies ffs.

ffs.

I can't.

He's got no hunger. Too much money, too soon, for frig all.

 

[Muggins]

I can't.

He's got no hunger. Too much money, too soon, for frig all.

I hope you're right mate.

 

[davek]

He'll wreck them. An absolute d1ckhead panic of a signing by gnashers. He's been telling everyone for two years that what he's building is built on hard work, endeavour and the team pulling as a unit...then he signs a player who's all me me me.

If nothing else, this signing reinforces how much of a phony Rodgers really is.

Let them have the headlines for a week. Balotelli will then get to work sitting on his £150k pw pay packet and doing his off-field circus act.

I agree entirely with this. "B-Rod" is effectively destroying "the group". And Stevie-Me won't be able to handle a player with a bigger ego than him

 

[mythbuster]

I hope you're right mate.

He's scored 34 goals in 50 games for Milan. Why are they selling him for £16 million??

Because he's a brat, a trouble causer, and not worth the hassle.

The kopites should love him then.

This. I feel he only shows up when the spotlight is bright, and them fades into relative football obscurity. I think it'sa bad move for them though, on the whole.

 

[Jacob]

Their last striker was a racist cannibal, even for Mario that's a hard act to follow.

Yeah. Be fun watching him try though. At least he'll do a good fireworks display near bommy night though..... in the dressing room/showers/khazi

 

[teppic]

So they are not getting Falcao then I presume.

He evidently prefers a move to Madrid.

Let me just pick myself up of the floor after falling off my chair.

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

I don't understand that lot going for Balotelli - he's failed to impress at Milan, in many of his games for Milan he hasn't even tried and a large chunk of his goals come from penalties.

Weird.

I'll go with C: "He's the last big name striker who hasn't turned them down this window" please Chris

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Bit of a vote of no confidence in Sturridge and Lambert this though, isn't it?

 

[Muggins]

"You go to the Liverpewl silly boy.."

 

[Muggins]

Bit of a vote of no confidence in Sturridge and Lambert this though, isn't it?

Liverpool fan or not, this was a bad move for Lambert with regards to playing time.

Can't begrudge him featuring in the Champions League though based on his career of bottom to the top...
