According to reports the mad one wants to leave Milan on January. If true where does he go from there? Chelsea? They need a striker but would Jose have him again? Could even see a situation where he has retired by the time he's 30. Shame as he's a great talent and i for one will look back on his time with us fondly

He's a wasted talent more like. He's Dzeko but funny sad to say.

Chelsea would be a very strange move as he really didn't get on with Maureen who described him as unmanageable

We have a buy back clause..... I miss that idiot.

Both Balo and Milan have denied the reports.

Never thought he was that great a talent. Yes, he did some amusing things, but on the pitch he never did anywhere near enough to justify all the nonsense that went with him.
Don't miss him one bit.

Absolute rubbish.

physical ability and talent to potentially be one of the best ever ... in my opinion. Didn't have the personality to match. Imagine if he had the determination of milner? or tranaldo, the way he improved himself. Or if he fought like negredo. He had the potential to be at the very top of the game, but he does not have the drive, desire or maturity.

Crazy to say that at only 23 ... there's a part of me that still hopes he'll snap out of it at some point and just conquer the world. I wanted it to happen so badly at City. Wasn't to be ... I think the sport lost out on it.

Whatever club mario plays for there will always be a sense that his talent is not being fully realised. He wont be the first. The frustrating thing IMO is that mancini felt he was the one who knew him best, seemed to treat him differently from others at the expense of squad harmony and still could not get the best from him. I like balotelli. He is human. Im not sure he'll ever know who he truly is but I dont either and im over 40 so I cannot pass judgement.

Negredo has done more in his first 6 months here than Mario ever did in over 2 years. Negredo doesn't have the same ability as Balo but he applies himself, works hard and is a team player, sadly Mario doesn't apply himself, doesn't work hard and is not a team player. Sad really as he has the ability.

I wonder if Pellers could handle him?

Think your being a little hard on negredo there.

Beast shits all over balotelli for ability. Mario is one of the most overrated player I've seen in a city shirt.

Think deep down we all love something about Mario but you never new what he was going to do next but you could bet it would be something crazy

I wouldn't be surprised if he goes to Chelsea. JM knows what a talent he is and the city life in London will suit his lifestyle better. His ego is huge I'm not sure MP will think he is a good fit in his "orchestra".

JM also sat him on the bench and refused to play him, has spoken to the press openly about his attitude and tried to sell him.

Yeah, he's headed to Chelsea, riiiiiiiiiight.

I would love it if he went to Chelsea. Would de-stabilize them completely!

If he did it would confirm that Roman is back to buying toys again without giving a shit about the manager - would cut short Maureen's triumphant return!

Jose is doing a pretty good job of destabilising them at the moment. I do not want mario to deflect him from this.
