lol brilliant
They'll forget about it in 3 pages
Put my Ronaldo on the FUT market starting at 150 for 3 hours, literally the moment i did it someone bid 15million and the bidding is now over, I wonder if there are bots doing this? Every Ronadlo I see is 15million, no matter how far away the bidding time. I was hoping for a really cool bid war

No idea who arctic monkey are.
I'd love Balotelli.
Can't hide it.
Love it.
He's crazy and mad and mental and chaotic and a handful and I just want to see him dancing with Sterling and Sturridge.
Needs to grow up, though. Brendan needs to give him the Sturridge talk, privately this time, and let him know that everything he wants from a career is here he only has to earn it.

I'm fine.
Balotelli would be a disaster. Unless he starts every game he will destroy the team.
:lol
No he wouldn't.
It's a loan.
He's not the death star.
He's no worse than fucking Adebayor.
In fact he's better.

That's why I'd take him on loan with a view to buy him but don't want to buy him outright. There's no reason for Milan to loan him though
Rodgers is a great man-manager by all accounts, Balotelli needs a dozen psychologists

For me Paolo is the greatest. A servent of his club for over two decade, a model professional, never looked to leave the club AFAIK, and led the Azzurri with great pride. A natural born leader who had the respect of every other footballer and fan, well except the Milan ultras lol.
Typical ESPN, no real criteria. As much as Del Boy hurt me and Totti back in 2000. It is crazy he isn't on that list for Serie B alone. Gerrard and Keane would have been off straight away.
Loan to buy would be far too good a deal from Liverpool's perspective to turn down. Takes away all of the risk and leaves all of the reward for Balotelli.
If his personality is a problem or he gets into trouble on the pitch, or he's just shit then Liverpool can simply cancel the loan or not buy him.
But if Liverpool can calm him down and get him to reach his potential then Liverpool will have a world class striker on the cheap, just like Sturridge was.

Maldini's last match is perhaps the most angry I've been about Serie A tbh. Ultra cunts
Ahhh my bad. The video I was thinking of is an abridged version of that.

Oh god. please no brendan. Not like this.
Balo is not the answer.
Balo is not the answer.
By all accounts I'm an expert in Balotelli, I've managed him myself.
It was a network game. I was Napoli, my m8 was Udinese. In our first season my friend loaned Mario for a year and his 20+ goals fuelled his title push.
Next summer Mario went back on the market and both my friend and I moved to sign him permanently. I won the race, Balotelli came to Naples.
Balotelli was ostensibly a backup to Cavani. But he was useful. I had a lot of games and he scored me a lot of goals. Sure, he had tantrums and days where he failed to perform, but as a backup and a part of the squad he was exceptional at getting goals.
We ended that season winning the title, as well as the Italian cup. Sure, a month prior I'd had an irreparable row with Balotelli which resulted in me shipping him out at a substantial loss, but the silverware remained.
Get him on a loan. Get his goals. Have a laugh. Move on.

Balotelli will kill Sterlings development, like he ruined El Shaarawy. As soon as he gets the ball he is either looking to shoot or draw a foul. El Shaz runs and movements were wasted when Balotelli came.

Gerrard wouldn't have allowed us to fix matches like Del Piero did ¬¬
And I'm aware that this is my second response to the same post
What plans? The make nice noises and flutter our lashes but don't actually bid plans?
Not really, lol.
Wuuut? I need to know more.
You can only shuffle around those three chords for so long, amirite? #ProgFace

If we were gonna bid for him, what the fuck are we waiting for? Him to ask to leave?
He's 100% not injured. He played like 25 mins in some preseason game a week ago
The blood splattering on his coat...
that stomach shoryuken..
I can't
Quite possibly. Woowar probably thought he could get him cheaper if he asked to leave.
Can't say I'm too worried yet. I'm still happy enough at this stage.
He's 24, it's WAY past that point now. He is who he is and he'll never change, like Cassano.
In your honest opinion then, why isnt he being played? Mitten said yesterday that his sources said he was off apparently, that doesnt mean to us. Whole thing just confuses me.

yeah, arguably the greatest servant of Italian football and they wanted to ruin his moment.
I thought Gerrard fixed the title for Man City
Imagine he moves and its not to United.

I am a man of the world Zab, you should know this by now.
My uncle did live in the same building block as him during the early 70s, wasn't really his neighbour though.
