This thread is brilliant. This guy has more talent than any of our squad and if he does move then it will be to a far superior team than us, and people are claiming him to be 'average at best' - get fucking real.

Haha how many international centre forwards have we got. Eeeerrrrrrr Walters Arnie Moses Diouf Crouch (42 caps) Odemwingie (just retired from international football -65 caps) So just the 4 current and 2 ex with 107 caps between them. In fact all the current forwards players are current internationals or ex! I'm not sure how many more you want???? Just some that can score goals mate. Jeez your statistics are pathetic.

Sorry don't see the talent you are referring to. For a big guy he is weak as piss. Makes the wrong runs,if he runs at all. Being a goal scorer requires movement and good finishing. Useless target man,seen better in the lower divisions. Not a great dribbler. Not seen much in the way if clever passes. Good at penalties,give him that.

Naw, overrated striker imo decent in Italy. But when he came to the Premier League he's been shut out by the league with better defenders and with constant pressure he's gone all but dry, even had a massive hissy fit and has seen the bench since for Rodgers. Wanker of a person. Let him rot Liverpool from within. Rather have Sturridge or Lacazette personally.

My stuff is tongue in cheek on this thread simply because :-
I cant take it seriously
I mean Mario Ballotelli at Stoke --- someone said to me 'get real'
yeah --- right
saying that -thesedays he has actually got the pace and movement of a large garden roller
about as much use too
Ive got a few scouse mates who go too - they agree - this season, he's been shocking - no other word

nope - but he runs like hes been tied up ok ...get what you are saying but has he seriously not been cup-tied?? Think it could be an important factor in Hughes thinking next week if we win on Monday.

Not cup tied. And why the hell would we want to take Liverpools problem away from them? They bought him, they can have him. Just another example of the genius that is Brendan Rodgers.

The problem with Ballotelli at Liverpool is slipping Steve, that is the problem with Loveren as well, hope slipping Steve never leaves there,
Bojan playing behind Ballotelli would be great, with Bal making gaps and acting as Bojan bodyguard, with the options to bring Crouch/Diouf/Walters on to change things depending on the opposition, Arnie, Moses and Wingie firing balls into them, it would be magic
the priest at St Gregs would be happy as well when Ballotelli turns up for Mass and leaves £10k ln the collection, the people in the local fuel stations when Ballotelli drives in and pays for everyone's fuel, the same at local shops, restaurants, oatcakes shops etc,

Don't know what make of this if true, he's like Arnautovic in if things don't go his way he won't dig in.
Needs service to his feet because he won't be chasing the ball.

"why the hell,,," Senegal Injury to Crouch or SJW Not too many centre-forwards in the shops I'm not his biggest fan by any means ...but ... IF we win Monday and don't draw Liverpool ...think Sparks will have a little think.

Is everyone pissed?
It's nice that there is noticeable improvement in our on field play and perception of the club off field, but a reality check is required.
He might be a bit of a slouch and having a bad time at L'pool but he's too high profile a player to ever consider coming here.
As I understand it was a tenuous link anyway.
We're going in the right direction, but this is pie in the sky.

Surely Liverpool aren't silly enough to think that we would swap Bojan for Balotelli???

I have to say I missed the part where Stoke became a Champions League calibre club, with top quality forwards. Balotelli would be the clubs best player by a distance, hence why even if he were to move from Liverpool, he would go to a much better club than us.

You're seriously deluded if you think he's useless, something that will be proven when he goes on to a far better club than us.

You can see, infrequently, that he's got all the physical tools to be a superstar. And people have clearly seen that since he was a teenager - and that's why he's been indulged....and indulged.....and indulged
Mentally,though, he's an ill-disciplined baby.
He's living off the hype machine that surrounds him and has created this sensation around him. That and his own ego are the only things that makes the thought of him coming to a Stoke-type club seem preposterous. The fireworks and 'why always me?' bullshit
In reality, he'd be lucky to get someone like us at this stage of his career, such are the glaring holes in his character which mean he'll always only half-achieve. Liverpool was his last chance saloon at the top table and he's f****d it right up
His next club will clearly not be a superclub. It'll either be a rich club in a second tier league (Turkey, China, Gulf) or a lesser club in a rich league who'llgive him one last, last chance.

Give me Bojan any day of this useless waster On top of how crackers the link is, your absolutely right, I genuinely believe Bojan offers more... Much more. Balotelli would inevitably consider himself above us, and is a rayt idle fucker. We're better off considering other options, not that this is one mind.

The question to ask is if he is so bad that he wouldn't be good enough for Stoke, why does and why will he continue to play for far superior teams than us? Also 'shipping him out after 18 months' sounds a lot like our boy Bojan. If, as you say, Bojan is better than Balotelli (something you're judging from a few great months with us, rather than a pretty poor few years before us), then how is it rational to say Mario is a 'useless waster' after a poor few months with Liverpool and despite a much better career than Bojan?

What use is a player like that to any team?

I'll be really interested to see where he ends up next. I can't see a big club in Italy, Spain or England touching him with a barge pole. I'm sure his ego won't let hm play for an unfashionable club - so where that leaves him, who knows?
