Where do you see the contradiction? In all fairness, it was more hypocritical or double standards than contradictory. *If Nasri is dropped from the French squad (where he had been a regular) it is because of his trouble making & bad attitude. *If the trouble making Mario Balotelli with his bad attitude is dropped from the Italian squad (where he had also been a regular) then it's because he's dog trash. Not a Mario fan?

Not a Mario fan? I actually watch a lot of French tv and the reasons for Nasri being dropped is very well documented, I don't know if you are aware. As I said, if Mario is dropped for similar reasons, then fine provided he is playing well for us. However, if he is dropped because of his performance, then, that won't be good news for us, will it? He has scored only once this season, so I would think there are other Italian strikers performing much better. And I am no Mario fan, yet.

Thing is, Mario was dropped for the first lot of Internationals this season - where he had only played once for us (I think) against Tottenham, and looked quite useful.
If this current round of friendlies was the first time he was dropped then I could understand as he's had mixed performances, but he was dropped well before this.
As for Nasri's troubles being well documented, I think you could easily make the same case for Mario.

I haven't read that Mario has been dropped for non footballing reasons, if you know this is the case then fine, but I am not aware. I am not making any case, I heard it a number of times on French tv for Nasri, as simple as that. By the way, Italy will be playing its qualification games next, not friendlies.

All rumors I also heard Mario would not play for Italy again due not playing well or being bad in the camp but for something else cough cough ;-)

You cannot make a logical deduction that Mario is not playing well for us because he was not selected by Italy. Its actually the other way round.

I am glad he's not selected, Mario that is, cos as the thread title says - injury watch, thus Mario won't get injured...
Lol..

The only player I'm worried about right now is Sterling. He's looked a bit jaded, and I don't want us running him into the ground.
