[NOT HAPPENING] Mario Balotelli

Cometh the man

Step up Sir Balotelli. I’m not even joking, I would 100% take him.

The suggestion leads to England, precisely to Watford. A track that Mino Raiola had already evaluated in 2015, when Balotelli was playing for Liverpool and was about to return to Milan on loan. Now, with the team in the Championship, the idea can come back, especially in the face of the lack of interest in the striker in Serie A, where only Genoa had timidly faced the possibility of taking Balotelli. With the exit of Pereyra and the possible sale of Pussetto too, requested by Crotone, Watford's attack will necessarily have to be reinforced, and even if the former Manchester City and Brescia striker plays a different role, he may be the right graft.

For Balotelli it would be a return to England after wearing the Citizens shirt from 2010 to 2013 and then that of Liverpool in the 2014-2015 season. Then Ligue 1 with Nice and Marseille and finally Brescia, the company from which he released himself at the end of last season.

 

Probably ********, but an, erm, interesting player. I have absolutely no idea whether he'd be good for us or not lol

 

Yes 100x over.

 

When you need some goals
In the Championship
Who you gonna call
Balotelli?

 

Haha YES for the #bantz.

 

Obviously he's had a very up and down career, but he absolutely racked up the goals in Ligue 1 2-3 years ago, last season wasn't the best but still got 5 in 19 for Brescia who got relegated. I'm sure a focused Balotelli would cane the Championship, but we all know that's a big if...

 

Carries wads of cash around giving the odd £1000 to the homeless..
...our very own headline grabbing Marcus Rashford character...

He would be a great influence on our youthful team - throwing darts at them, letting off indoor fireworks at his house parties, would fit right in with our other party animals..
It’s a yes from me..

 

Yeah, this definitely isn't happening.

 

LMFAO.

 

Absolutely tremendous goal scoring record, he’s a mixture of both exactly what we do and don’t need.

 

Would be a good mentor for our younger players.

 

More likely to sign his brother, Luigi, I'd think.

 

We need players with his work ethic.

 

Would never happen but would be hilarious to see the utter mayhem he would cause in the pitch and in the squad. Would make FF's sulks when someone didn't pass to him, or he lost the ball, look like unadulterated joy. Can you imagine the silence in the room when there was conflict with Deeney? Hilarious but if Gino seriously considered this he'd have clearly lost his mind. Can't think of anyone who's work ethic is less suited to the champ.

 

Surest sign yet that Deeney’s off. We’ve already earmarked his £100k pw for this nutter.

 

Assumed he was ancient but he’s still only 30. Young enough the be Glenn Murray’s son.

 

Prefer Mario Balotelli... oh.

 

Will fill the Holebas role with ease.

 

Great role model for our youngsters.

 

So a squad that has problems with downing tools and motivation, and a manager that demands players are committed etc etc...

Can easily see why this rumour is total nonsense.

 

Fireworks.

 

Yes please, we are lacking some quality in CF positions and worst case he could at least make the season a tad more entertaining.

Surely it could only be possible if we shifted one or two of Welbz and Troy though, and/or cancelled Murray's loan.

 

You're mental if you'd say no to this, my god.

 

Would be a disaster. Let's be real. Great player, but attitude issues galore. Completely out of keeping with what Ivic says he wants. Like most rumours, complete ********.

 

Better than Murray to be fair!

 

Why? His career is littered with fallouts and issues. God knows how many of his clubs have released him from his deal early because of the drama he brings.

Might be ‘good fun’ but is that what we need? People on here still hold a grudge against Gray for off-field matters but will welcome this guy?

Same category as Ravel Morrison - very talented players but a spectacular inability to get their head down and realise potential. Let some other club pick him up who want to remain a basket-case. I’d rather we tried to move away from being seen that way...

 

Would be a massive signing. Got to think it's legit as well with our owner's Italian connections obviously lol

 

Lol.

 

As we haven’t sacked anyone for a couple of months, we need something to keep WFC in the public eye -

Mario, Mario he’s our man.
If he can’t do it, no one can

 

10000000000000 times yes. All is forgiven if you bring Mario home, Gino.

 

I know it’s tempting, but the bloke is not right in the head and a massively disruptive influence on every team he joins

He recently got a load of tattoos all over his face for those interested in his current mental state

Not worth the aggro

 

Good grief.....NO. Not going to happen anyway, but the guy's a complete nutcase and we'd be turned into a media circus. Would hate this to be true.

 

Yes please, just for a laugh during these dark times.

 

Why the hell not? Knows how to score goals and is a complete nut job.

 

I'm better than Murray tbf
