    apart from arguably one season, he was ****e at Man City too. In fact, the only place his record stacks up is at Milan before joining us!

    It was in Tony Barrett's articles.

    I blame Rodgers for a lot of things, but signing Mario wasn't his fault.

    Was that when he helped win the title for City?

    30 goals in around 50 odd goals for Milan is a good record to be fair. His goals were crucial in getting Milan into the CL as well.

    And you question his record before Milan - he was around 19/20 years when he joined City. Not sure what you're expecting from such a young player.He's only just turned 25 as well.

    Firstly...

    "But if you look at this record, he's been decent for most teams bar Liverpool."

    ...isn't true is it? ;)

    Secondly, take away the penalties and what are those stats like?

    Lastly, stats don't mean that much when judging a playing like Mario. He's just not that good on the pitch and he doesn't help his team at all!

    Aquilani.

    £20+ mil when that was big money. Bought him injured and never did anything for us.


    ... That was a worse signing than Balotelli.

    Not for me, Aquilani was a good player that would have fit in with how we played had he managed to get fit. Least there is logic to the signing.

    Pretty sure Carragher's not been too impressed with Mario either <laugh>

    Carragher also said Lovren was a brilliant defender.

    To be fair to Aquiliani, he actually played very well when fit.

    Balotelli has seriously under-achieved. I feel sorry for him, don't know why. He's a lost child.

    His head is just not right, he has ability and potential but those credit lines are running out fast <whistle>

    His potential account balance is £2.34
