***Official Balo Watch Thread***

"I heard that I have £12,000 worth of parking tickets. If that was true then I would have to get about 35 tickets a day. It's not possible. I have maybe 20 parking fines, which I know is a lot and I have been stupid. I have parked my car outside San Carlo restaurant too many times but I have not been fined £12,000" - We're warming to Mario Balotelli.


"Doing nothing" - Mario's answer when asked how he fills his spare time. He could fill some of it paying off parking fines.

or escorting all the kids playing hookie back to school* ....



* he might not have much time left for training mind

[Fesan]

Seriously... For all his stupid stuff (which he seamingly have stopped doing now) you gotta love this guy... What a character:-)

Made me smile from ear to ear! Hope you stay with us Balo and turn into the superstar you were born to be!

[Lee_R]

The guys a legend in the making. I just want him to fulfill his potential and for it to be done with us. Hes got everthing he needs to become a superstar!

(Or a megastar?.. which ever ones bigger anyway)

[Tokyo Blue]

Come on, Mario lad. We need 100% concentration and focus from you today.

[Longball]

I ALWAYS BACKED HIM LOL

[Esky]

Mario is king.

[Slim]

Great game today, deserved a goal.

[CityGer]

I've slated the kid but today he was magnificent. Not just in his play but in his charachter, those animals did everything they could to wind him up today but he was too smart for them.

Well played Mario.

[Tokyo Blue]

He did everything I could possibly have asked of him today. Brilliant. Next challenge: do this every week.

[Fesan]

Crazy that the press has not picked up on it yet but he has been impeckable since that red card in EL. I think it was a lifechanger for him to see Mancini's reaction to it.

From here on and out he will be brilliant! Love you Mario, love you Mancini, Love you Man City!!:-)

[Blue2]

Well deserved MOM, knew he had it in him. Premier League beware next season.

[Bridge'srightfoot]

Take a bow son, world class today!

[shawzy]

[bigblue]

They said...."so Mario, Man of the Match, would you agree that this was the best performance since you joined City"

Mario said...."Well, for me, since I arrived at City I have been....I don't know if I can say this?.....Shit....so yes this today was better"

It was brilliant....and actually so was he.

Pretty sure De Jong got the official (well atleast the TV producers) man of the match.
