No but then again you can't expect him to mark 2 players whilst Henderson does nothing.

I think the problem is that if Mario demonstrated at least a glimmer of skill, in at least a few games, he'd be forgiven for the pantomime performance tonight.
The trouble is his consistent lack of performance leads him wide open to being a scapegoat.. and for that I agree with Jamie's comment.

His lack of game intelligence and hard work makes me weep.

Forget the set piece for a mo...what about his wayward shooting? and poor decision making.

posted on 27/1/15

He just doesn't have a football mind, or chooses not to. Borini scored the other week, and has put in 100% every time he has played for us, and somehow Mario gets picked ahead of him.

Brendan needs to bite the bullet, and offload him as soon as possible.

He's just been a disaster, club needs to accept it, cut our losses as much as possible and move on.

Why would balotelli be in the box in the first place and centre....zonal marking my àrse, he was scratching his balls when they were doing it on the training ground.

Central defenders not doing their jobs.


He's still crap at the other end though.

Br made a big mistake playing him today. He orobably thought he would get a big reaction from him today but he got the opposite. He just does nit want to run or press

agree that he is hopeless and I reckon when we heard that we were signing him we all thought the same thing: "balotelli? really? why?" and so it has proven that he doesn't suit us.
however I forsee issues with getting rid in January. we wont get value for any replacement and will have to pay over the odds(ala andy carroll) plus we cant get rid and be left with only studge lambo and borini for the remainder of the season.
sooooo therefore, cakc or not, we keep him until the summer!!

This reeks of being a committee signing, no way is he a Brendan signing. He's brought in some flops but they all work hard. I reckon our scouts who have a City connection had a say, and FSG's policy on taking calculated risks on wild players would also suggest an input.

Huge error and like all the other teams who signed him we arfe just waiting for a way to get rid,.

i thought he did well other than the marking on the goal

Mario came on at a time when Sterling, Coutinho and Gerrard were tired and both Lucas and Hendo on last chance yellow. He didn't cover himself with glory but he's not the reason why we are out.

I think Lallana would have been a better choice as the sub for Markovich. I was very disappointed when Mario came on.

posted on 28/1/15

Markovic should have stayed on for me. It should have been one of Lucas, Gerrard or Coutinho off. Those three were absolutely exhausted. Lucas got to the stage when he couldn't even get the energy up to bring his leg through the ball for passes.

And of course in hindsight it should have been Lallana and Lambert on. I've had enough of Balotelli to be honest. He just looks like he's feeling sorry for himself all the time, doesn't give 100% and it's not fair on the likes of Borini, who's not even on the bench, who do give it.

If by some miracle somebody wants to pay actual cash to disrupt their system, then no doubt, we'll take it.

Don't see the point in having him in the squad to be fair.

If you've left him out because he's not willing to do the job that is being asked by the manager (why he was left out vs Bolton) then I'd rather he was left out completely and that place was given to Ojo or Sinclair!

If one of those lads was given the chance to come on Ina league cup semi final at the very least they'd do what they where asked of and work they're bollox off!

To be honest....he hasnt got any influence in the game yesterday. In so far you are right Kolo. What is the point in having him in the team? He looks not interested, his shooting is eratic, he doesnt track back....

To buy him in the last summer was a big mistake.

We need a new striker. I think we need to do like United fans and do airplane banner or crying like Arsenal fans to get the message through to the owners.

During both legs we played better and had the best chances. Last night they only had half chances and scored from a set play. We had three clear chances. In 1st leg we had plenty. Against Bolton the same.

Why don't you ball off!

Never a Liverpool fan!

So you create an article on the Liverpool board, about one a Liverpool player, and then threaten to delete any comments from Liverpool fans that do not agree with your opinion?

Delete away - Balo was gash again last night and has been since we took the gamble on signing him.

I'd rather have Borini in the team any day of the week

Its the ovibious. Half of u were all for Balo he just didnt fit into your system and its poor from BR, or FSG etc who really bought him. He could of got easily value for money with Remy and we messed that up we stil dont know to this day what happened. Had all last summer to sort this.

posted on 29/1/15

What happened with remy is public knowledge and confirmed by remy himself

We brought in a heart specialist who couldn't conclusively say whether he should still be playing football

No conspiracy, the doc said this bloke is probably risking his life
