Mario Taking City To A Tribunal

[Beefymcfc]

If his performances come up to scratch if/when selected then most will for forgive/foget about it .... just like with Tevez

To be honest I think we do need him with the games we've got coming up. Whether he'll be a starter is another matter.

He'll have to put in consistent performances if he gets on and at least bag a goal. It's been difficult for all our forwards without a clear run of games, the chopping and changing can help their game and I hope Mancini has told them which partnership he prefers and then sticks with it.

He has never put a string of consistent performances together mate, can't see this suddenly being the reason to turn that around either.

I don't know, he did seem to get a fair run last year and he did show consistency. We may just give him that 10 minutes to prove, as long as we've still got 11 men and are 3-0 up.

I'm up for it.

We all know there is a fantasticly gifted footballer in Mario somewhere ....... totally fed up of hearing and reading about him now , much prefer to hear about some quality performances and goals in a City shirt on the pitch because that is what he gets highly paid for , the lad is a circus and MCFC and its fans dont need a circus we want another league title or the FA cup !

totally agree - never in the news because of how good he's been - the fact that I am *almost* certain that the painfully easy
"Super Mario!" headline has never been used for an article regarding his performance in a city shirt says it all

He absolutely HAS to now. And so does Dzeko.

Last chance for both.

Actually there have been plenty of good performances from Mario. I thought he played well in the semi against MU and the FA Cup final. I thought he stepped up for us for several months last season when Tevez went awol and his performance in the 6-1 was excellent. I thought he gave us a boost when he came on against QPR and for that assist well...

...and equally there are times when you just want to throttle the guy and maybe the bad will ultimately outweigh the good but I personally don't get emotionally overwrought over Mario like so many do - especially media and pundits who seem to think Mario's very existence is an affront to decency and the British way of life; seriously fuck 'em. So let it play out and enjoy the times when he crushes the opposition fans dreams by winning a last minute pen and dispatching it cool as you like when he should have really been sent off 10 mins before hand - yes Spurs fans are still hating over that incident.

Mario you are an annoying, exasperating tit a lot of the time but for those moments like when you drove Rio F into a frothing rage with that wink I forgive you, although I reserve the right to change my mind the next time you annoy the fuck out of me.

Which you will Mario. Which you will.

I wish Mario was more of a forward and less froward.

That ain't strictly true Slim, he did have a good spell between his first appearance last season against Birmingham and the Sickswan, he performed consistently well scoring quite a few along the way, it only lasted a month mind.
