He's a really smart and funny guy. Really great to listen to him in depth and see how different he comes across.

One of the really interesting things you can do is pick 5-10 lines from him (any ones) and try to make a headline from them. It usually works, if you try hard enough, but it doesn't fit with his longer interview style.

What an entertaining read, thanks for the link. Very informative and interesting, though would've been better if the opening account had not contained this cock-up -

although training-ground scuffles, notably with City team-mate Nigel de Jong

Could've sworn it was Jerome Boateng?

I think de jong let balla know what he was about the day he arrived by driving through the middle of his press conference !

Definitely. No matter how bonkers the lad is, I think it's safe to say he'll keep on Nigels' good side

I will now forgive him for nearly running me over in his haste to get away from the ground yesterday.

Good interview and great to see that he has decent enough english to quip in it. Mancio4 take note!

I think it is fairly safe to say that he has his own ideas about who and what he is.. kind of typical from those who grow up able to look at society rather than be lost in it... with a healthy critique and independence to know that he doesn't have to accept it and can create his own rules of engagement... ironically something the press just love to highlight and feign outrage over, no wonder he dislikes journos.

I like it he's got true character.

Taken. Credit when due.
Still You sod wum (at me, only) should realize the slight difference between a 20 years old living Britannia and an old scrap missing since late 90s and allowed to trip there few days a year, only rushing between a hotel and an office, out of the reach of living folks.
When I lived London my english was definitely better than Your Catalan, You........ Image

Take note too. nothing is forever.



Mancio apart.

1. "unintelligible language"
2. "ACID QUEEN"
3. "never once fails to turn a football thread into a himseelf thread"
4. "thumbs stalker often resulting in repetitive thumb strain"
5. ignore the cunt. he's on permantent wum mission. only TIDs may know City

You'd need to make a very good psychiatrist in order to guess what next in a eight yrs long line of hatred...

How did everyone miss the other breaking news?? Alan has been dropped by salzburg and is now selling the big issue???

From hero to zero in a matter of weeks! - poor guy!

Alan, who sells the Big Issue outside San Carlo, agrees. ‘He often stops to give me a fiver for the magazine,’ he says. ‘Mario’s OK.’

‘I don’t like journalists and I hardly ever talk to them,’ says Balotelli as we talk — in Italian — at Manchester’s Rosso restaurant, an establishment partly owned by Manchester United’s Rio Ferdinand.

Fuck me, I originally missed that point.
Is there any sweet heart who can take the job to evolve Mario's taste for restaurants ??? ....
