Balotelli

[Ted Hughes]

He's 'come to know Balotelli well' ? How the fucking hell has he managed that? Balotelli's spent half his time in bleeding Italy since we signed him! Also he 'locks himself in his room'. Presumably rather than leaving the fucking door open ? Or perhaps he expects him to sit at the fucking bar downing pints of lager & whisky chasers like some Italian version of Alan bastard Brazil? Jebus!!

Erm..

Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini is still without Mario Balotelli for the Juventus clash but expects him to return to the squad at the end of next month.

Balotelli is sidelined with a knee injury and the striker said he would be out for eight weeks.

However Mancini responded: "He is in Italy and his knee is okay. I think he may be ready at the end of October, in four to five weeks."

Micah Richards could come into contention for the Europa League match against after sitting out the victory over Chelsea with a hamstring injury.

Shaun Wright-Phillips is doubtful with a knee problem while Wayne Bridge and Aleksandar Kolarov remain absent.

Is Balotelli the new Messi, Shearer or Goater?

None of the above ..... he is just ..... 'Super Mario' .....and I think he will be something different to anything we have ever witnessed before. I only hope that that's good and not bad.

I can't wait until we can get him on the pitch.

Fucked my ligaments slights at footy on Sunday, which should take a bout 6 weeks. Have to go back to docs next week though, cos he was concerned something isn't quite right with that meniscus thing they were going on about in the article. Hope to fucl it's not cos I don't want to be crocked for THAT long. I'll be bored out of my mind and probably turn into an alcoholic
