one win in five, ten scored and ten conceded

They clearly need to sort out that attack.
You joke but they actually do. Balotelli has been carrying them since he signed. I think El Sharaawy has only scored like two league goals since he signed as well.
Balotelli is World Class.
Should get to see some of the Inter game tonight, as far as I'm aware our game against Espanyol isn't until 9 or 10!
I've always maintained that he's got the ability to be. I think he can be the best striker in the world if he wants to. But I wouldn't bestow that tag on him yet after 6 months at Milan.
He's such a mug, though. He's banned for the game against Juve. Was looking forwarding to seeing him up against them.
I totally agree with Darren. It's one thing to have a temperament, which I think is a must for almost any great footballer, and another is to be completely unmanageable.
Balo in that sense reminds me of a young Nicholas Anelka. Had such potential that a number of big teams thought him worth having on their books, but his attitude kept on letting him down and it wasn't until he was 29 and had wasted the best part of his career that he really put his priorities in place.
ioag, Anelka is a good comparison.
I've noticed with Balotelli that the bad sides to his game don't seem to be as prevalent since he's moved to Milan, and that's probably why he's enjoyed the best run of form in his career to date.
But it's six months and he showed what an idiot he can be with that red at the weekend.
Yep, as promising a start as he's made, 6 months isn't really enough to prove he's mastered his inner demons. He still works out at almost a booking every 2 games.
Yeah pretty much.
Personally I think the team being so reliant on him could be detrimental to him mentally. He seems to be revelling in having the side built around him, however, you can tell there's frustration there when the rest of the side aren't pulling their weight.
I think that was the issue on Sunday. He played out of his skin but the rest of the side just weren't up to his level.
From what I've seen been a good game.
Ricky Alvarez is a completely different player this season.
Diego Costa not called up for Brazil squad again. What is the deal with that?
He's not Brazilian enough
He'll be playing for Spain in next WC I reckon. All Scolari's fault. Probably.
haven't seen enough of him myself
He's great fun to watch. Always involved in some way or another.
Apparently he's a dirty facker, and a diver, cheat in general.
Ricky Alvarez is playing some unbelievable football, #tekkers
i thought this was la liga thread sorry

Both these comments are true.
It was actually in the news today here that the Spanish FA have already sought confirmation from FIFA that he is yet to have played a single minute in a full int'l for Brazil so DelBoy can go ahead and call him up.
How long's he been in Spain?
Bad decision, pen Fiorentina
My opinion.
