he has won the league being a major player at city , was the best italy player in there run to the 2012 euro final and was arguably italy's best play in the world cup , but then again he is only 24 isnt he . [/quote] I would take issue with those assertions . To me he was never a major player at city, he was always just on the outskirts, the odd good game and then the odd bad one. euro 2012 he played one good game. same again in the world cup. he is 24 and has never applied himself over a long period. We are a team that runs and runs - if he decides to have a few day off games it may kill us. plus his reactions to things on the pitch is border line insane. gets books and decides might as well get a red card too. I am worried not excited [/quote] Weren't you saying the same about Sturridge? Didn't turn out too bad so players can turn themselves round. It's right to be cautious but I think it's also right to be excited as he is an exciting player (not always for the right reasons though!)

Souness was a monster player and captain, but he was an average manager and an average pundit. And he's hardly one to talk about tempers!

But mario is a different kettle of fish, and I think Souness is not so concerned about his temper but his lack of trying. I would be much happier if mario was 50% more nuts but as committed to winning as Suarez. I just fear he is going to be what he has always been - lazy and look and me type - we have no time for that childish crap

Nowhere near Balotelli, however, every LFC fan will wish him well if he signs.
