Seriously, Balotelli will be the last player here with that fat-ass moneyhungry agent of Raiola..Moratti knows it, and Branca knows it..He is just huge pain in the ass for everyone involved..

I don't get why Raiola is asking Inter to deal with a lower transferfee, he himself in that case gets less money isn't it?

He probably gets a percentage of balo's wages as well so he compensates if its only a small discount.

You don't honestly believe Cafe, that it's Raiola who is calling the shots here do you ?

It's all down to Balotelli. Raiola is just the guy who handless this stuff, but it's Balotelli who decides in the end, if that's enough or if it's not.

If the negotiations are in this point, it's because Balotelli is greedy brat.

ps. BTW, Marzio was betting his life at the beginning of the weak, that Balotelli deal is close to done, and that by the weekend (this weekend) Balotelli will be Man City player. Oddly enough, 2 days later he says there are some problems. Is this for real ?

He didn't reckon on raiola/balo being this greedy. He reckoned the hardest part would be the agreement between the clubs. Since that was made he thought the wages negotiations should go smoothly. I think that's what most would expect.

Anyway raiola says mario is anxious.

Well, in my books, if someone says something in a certain way, he should reckon more. Otherwise he is nothing but a typical fan like us. Hell, I can guess as well as he can. All I need is follow couple of modern mercatos, and look for some patterns, and then just go with the probability math.

If someone is calling himself an expert, he should have some pretty good grounds to say the deal is imminent, unless some unexpected turn of events happened, like a buyer changing his mind all of a sudden, or something like that.

The fact is, he knew shit about the contract negotiations between MAn City and Balotelli, and yet he said a deal is imminent. That just tells me, he is full of crap, like most of those "experts".

They just have such a poor record lately. Most of the stuff I read from those "experts", isn't even something extraordinary, just some obvious stuff.

These guys are nothing but a "probability" experts, who just shoot where there is more chance, and look later on how the things play on. Diegus was so much better. A guy comes couple months before and says "we'll get that guy and this guy", and couple months later it comes true, and almost never is wrong (only Lampard case).

The only things I read with attention are the news where are quotes in them. I even skip the whole "commentary" stuff, and just read the quotes as it's easier and faster and more accurate. The "comments" and "expert opinions" I can make myself.

I seriously can't understand how people wanted for him to stay. What is he doing now, with Raiolas help, is just a continuation of his actions. If he would stay, we would hear probably more in the next years, especialy if we come to the end of his contract. I mean what the fuck this kid wants 4-5 mln for ?!! He is a sub, a tallented, but still a sub. He isn't playing in nazionale, and he isn't a prooved first team player.

Lets put it in the perspective. 35 mln is what Barcelona payed for freeking Villa.

Anyways, I hope they will both rot in hell. Coming back to Inter to give him more money. What the fuck.

It's all down to Balotelli. Raiola is just the guy who handless this stuff, but it's Balotelli who decides in the end, if that's enough or if it's not.

I believe 100% that Raiola is handling the business. Mario might have been saying he wants more salary but that's about it. Raiola is the businessman here. You don't seem to understand that players really don't care about the exact numbers involved in contracts (after they've talked with the agent that "I want more money"). Then it's up to the agent to deal with these issues. That's why they are there.

Balotelli is surely a greedy one, but I'm absolutely sure Raiola is the one stalling this deal at the moment. He wants to take that extra million I thinks is up for the grab there. Do you honestly think Raiola calls to Mario constantly asking "Hey, do you want 3,5m€ per season?" "Do you want 4m€ per season?" Do you want 4,5m€ per season?" ? They don't act like that. They've held their meeting before Mario left the States, and then it's Raiola's task to do the deal.
