ps. I just can't wait to tell you all "I told you so" in like 5 years. Even if I will be living on a streets, I will sell my blood, go to the internet cafe, and post this one message here.

Been there, done that.

Adriano anyone? :D

How much money we could get if we sold Adriano a little earlier? I demanded to ship his ass out of the club while his market value was still high. No way we could get anything less than 60M for him if he was sold earlier.

But no no, people wanted to keep faith in him. How much we got from him again? that's right, fucking nothing. And where is he now? no need to answer that.

That was a waste of money, time, space, energy, and minutes that could've been used to develop a decent youngster or to play a decent striker.

So no, thank you. Not willing to do the same with this other shithead. When you have a clear indication that a player belongs to a mental institution, sell him when his market value is still high and never look back. And while you're at it, laugh on the jackass who bought him.

Oh and one more thing, you must suck really hard when you have Materazzi lecturing you about morals and ethics. :lol:

You must suck really bad..

Could you kindly tell us all, when Ronaldo during his carear was showing this attitude:

"I don't need to work cause I'm already the best. All I need is to play games."

Btw, I'm still waiting for your answer to:

"btw luka, mario does give a shit, he just shows it in a different way."

HOW EXACTLY ?

Can't believe I missed this one. :lol:

Signature material.

I'll start throwing trash and garbage in my city's streets. People might think that I don't give shit about my city when I actually care about my city but I just show it a different way. :lol:

Balotelli out, Forlan in
Sunday 18 July, 2010

Inter could make a move for Diego Forlan this summer if they do indeed opt to sell teenage sensation Mario Balotelli.

The latter’s future at San Siro is in doubt with a host of top clubs, mainly from the Premiership, seemingly interested in his services.

Nerazzurri chief Massimo Moratti has admitted that offers for the player do exist and it seems he is seriously considering a sale.

Although the Under-21 international has the potential to be a star of the future, clubs such as Manchester United, Manchester City and Chelsea are perhaps prepared to part with £30m for him.

Now reports from Spain are suggesting that Inter are already looking at possible alternatives for the Italian.

World Cup sensation Forlan is apparently an option that the Nerazzurri are looking at should Balotelli be sold.

Although the Uruguayan is already 31, he proved in South Africa that he’s a more refined finisher than Super Mario.

The South American, who is also of interest to Juventus, could be sold by Atletico Madrid for as little as £15m.

I got better idea, instead of answering that ^^^.

How bout you connect other words, and actually get the meaning of the whole sentence ?

They teach it usually in first, or second grade, but every once in a while somebody misses the whole concept.

yeah, rooney DOES have great attitude..

He is agresive, not as dirty as some say. He is motivator, great work rate, runs all the time, plays the wat SAF tells him.. If you remember he used to play as winger just because SAF asked him to, and was doing it great.

The only problem with rooney is his temper, he blows off too easy and that can get him into trouble.. Other than that he has perfect attitude on the pitch...

Well if Mario leaves, I want the replacement to be

- should be good on the wing

I don't want Forlan, Cavani or the likes mentioned.

Both sides of the argument here aren't providing all the facts, understandably so. Before you read this, let it be known that I think we should keep Balotelli, but wouldn't be crushed or turn on the management if he was sold.

Let's look at player's with similar problems around his age.

Rooney- Skilled, high work rate, bad character.
CR7- Very skilled, medium work rate, bad character.
Adriano- Skilled, medium work rate, bad character.
Landon Donovan- Skilled, high work rate, bad character.
SNEIJDER- Skilled, high work rate, bad character.

If he turns out like some of these types of players, yeah, he should be sold. But tons of players that turned out to be great had character or work rate issues.

The truth is that we don't know how he'll turn out, it's impossible to predict. The thing is, this club has the type of atmosphere that could possibly correct his attitude. The risk (throwing away a season and a couple million) is so much lower than the possible reward (a top tier player). Notice I'm using "possibly" a lot. We just don't know how he's going to turn out.

:lol:

Could you kindly tell us all, when Ronaldo during his carear was showing this attitude:

"I don't need to work cause I'm already the best. All I need is to play games."

Btw, I'm still waiting for your answer to:

"btw luka, mario does give a shit, he just shows it in a different way."

HOW EXACTLY ?

lol are u serious... if h didnt give a shit he would have wanted out a long time ago. its that simple. you talk as if you know the player first hand and know everything that is going on inside his head. yeah someone said mario doesnt give his all in training yet when on the pitch you can see what kind of plyer he can be. why the fuck would he apologize for his off field antics. if he didnt give a shit he would have stood there in front of everyone and admitted to his wrong doings and said "fuck u inter im better and greater then you"....

is this a joke, ok i can admit to the fact when ppl doubt his work ethic or attitude, but just because he dosent kiss the badge everytime he scores doesnt mean he doesnt give a shit. werent you the one condeming maicon just a few weeks ago saying he was the scum of the earth and after this debacle with his transfer, has changed his tune.(lets leave that for the right tropic)

mario dosent give a shit about the club...i dont think so mate, he would have been on his high horse long before if it were anything like that.

now for your first question, as ive already stated, go speak to any (knowledgeable) manure fan. they will tell you what this boys attitude was like...alright im going to stop, this shit is just too hilarious to continue.

Man, you can't see through the "ego" Balotelli has do you ?

Caring for something/someone BY THE DEFINITION is in contrast to WILLINGLY doing something to hurt that something/someone.

IF Balotelli gave a shit about this club he would never do the shit he did.

If you want me to lay it down for you I will:

Balotelli did appologise BECAUSE Jose SAW HIS BLUFF. You don't remember the whole situation, how everybody in Italy was saying Jose would be a crazy motherfucker if he didn't take Balotelli with him for important game ? Balotelli put Jose almost in impossible position, and yet Jose didn't brring this lazy asshole, and WE WON. That showed Balotelli one thing - either you listen to me (Jose) or you don't play motherfucker.

Balotelli appologised ONLY because he didn't have any other choice.

If he indeed cared for the club there would be no story to begin with. And I only scrapped the surface here. I could write an essay on all this.

If you think Balotelli cares about this club, than you must be right after lobotomy. Balotelli thinks only about himself, and nothing else, period.

you can't stay one day without talking about Balotelli, what will you do in your free times if he leaves? he also sell newspapers, and give gossips to talk in the bar!
Is this your response, or you just trying to avoid my question ?

Let's look at player's with similar problems around his age.

Rooney- Skilled, high work rate, bad character.
CR7- Very skilled, medium work rate, bad character.
Adriano- Skilled, medium work rate, bad character.
Landon Donovan- Skilled, high work rate, bad character.
SNEIJDER- Skilled, high work rate, bad character.
a) No, those players (most of them) didn't have SIMILAR problems

b) Lets clear something out. When I say WORKRATE, I don't point out to the workrate on the field (although one can be sometimes directly tied to the other - example Javier, and in most cases the players who work hard during the games can easily be bet on to be working their ass of during training sessions). When I say workrate I mostly think the workrate on improving yourself (and that means giving 100% on trainings).

I don't know about Donovan, but all others, I've never heard of any issues like that for these players, neighter from their coaches, teammates, or fans till this very day.

But tons of players that turned out to be great had character or work rate issues.
And yet... I still don't know any world class player, who had the same attitude to improvement as Balotelli.

One last time. It's not the character issue. One can be an asshole (bad character), but still can have a great drive to improving himself (knoledge of importance of working on yourself). One can be a saint aka Javier (good character) and also can understand what hard work means for yourself.

One can be an asshole (bad character), AND can sit on his ass all the time, because he thinks he is already best and doesn't need to move his ass - Balotelli.

The character is NOT A PROBLEM when we talk about translating the talent on the player in 5 years time.

If one thinks about it carefully, one understands how big of a problem it is.

Luka, you're conveniently leaving out the times Balotelli cried on the bench. He cares, and shows it like a confused teenager.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems like you're calling character (like in Sneijder and Rooney's cases) a non-issue. So let's focus on work-rate (mainly in practice). Balotelli has never practiced under Benitez until this week. If you're main concern is how he practices, it's only fair to give him a chance to practice under the new coach.

are you serious, jose loved the fact that everyone was putting him in that situation, and that he could go against what everyone was saying and drop the so called undroppable mario. it was a perfect scenario for mou, a definate win-win situation. have you not learnt already that jose thinks for himself, or would you like to see how he does with us next season... ooops shit i forgot he isnt with us anymore is he.???(quite ironic) wow jose had a personal thing with mario and that was it. why the fuck would the greatest manager of our time and three of the biggest clubs atm want to sign him. this is just getting silly. he made a mistake. are you telling me no one else has made mistakes before within the club?? a thesis could be written on that kind of shit...............

as for your analogy, its full of crap. farmers care for their animals a whole lot,feeding them and giving them shelter, but still make the choice of killing them for money, its as simple as that.....

he is caring for someone, but is still willingly causing hurt on that someone at that same point in time................
see how your thinking is flawed here, its the same with the whole conversation.

Luka no team should have 25 Balotelli's, but you need one because he's an enigma who can win games ON HIS OWN. Currently, he's the only player who can win games on his own. Sneijder needs Milito, Milito needs Sneijder, same with Eto'o and Pandev needs Jesus.

Dont bullshit everyone with your story on how Balotelli will lose value and thats why you want to sell him. He's 19, in 2 years he'll be worth the same even with the attitude problems because he'll still be scoring goals.

And yeah Rooney had a perfect attitude at 18 LMAO! I think he got more red cards than Felipe Melo.

You want him gone because you hate him so stop trying and pretend you're worried about the money :lol:
