It's maybe a positive sign of a maturing player Faz? He hasn't spat a dummy, there's been no tantrums with him being sidelined recently or anything else the media would love to see.

Can BR find a solution to where and how he plays with us. Can they adapt Mario's game? Still hoping the lad comes good he could be a devastating forward if we can get him integrated.


Government is not reason; it is not eloquent; it is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master.

That's high hoping in my opinion. Buying him was a major mistake and I don't know who thought thet Rodgers could do a better job than Mancini and Mourinho to sort that twit up. He does have some talent, but be is lazy and has an attitude problem. These days he also has a confidence problem. Money wasted in my books, we could have had Bony for the combined fee of Lambert and Balotelli (his then release clause which has increased by 50% in just 6 months). All this is a joke.

I still wanna see him work in with Sturridge. We looked really dangerous that Tottenham game when they were both up front.

My personal feeling is that Balotelli is a hopeless case and playing with 2 strikers with him in the team, will make us more vulnerable defensively unless he stops being lazy and tracks back regularly.

People say Mario is lazy but he hasn't been for us. Also, many here want us to sign Higuain, and he is much more static and lazier than Mario.

When Mario and Danny played together they looked really menacing. I feel we will see them together soon. BR seems to be using the same tactic he used with Sterling and Markovic, he has taken him out the limelight and removed the pressure off Mario. It worked with Raheem and Lazar and i hope it will work with Mario too.

Hope you're right ninja. He was a massive gamble that has failed miserably so far. But the signs at Spurs were good so you never know.

Maybe, just maybe, he's getting fed up with being past around like a bad apple.

Unfortunately, neither reason justifies why the club should still keep hold of him

Yeah fair point, and whilst I only wanted Mario because we were signing nothing else up front, when we should have been, I do feel he has something to offer if Rodgers can get it out of him. His improved attitude and recent attempts at movement offer some slight encouragement. We shall see.

I think he'd be better in mid field rather than up front. Give him a supply role rather than expecting goals from him.
