Date: 29-Mar-2012 Dailymail : Mario Balotelli was caught up in yet more controversy on Wednesday after a training ground bust-up with manager Roberto Mancini. The £24million Manchester City striker, who'd jetted in from Italy after bizarrely crashing an Inter Milan press conference on Tuesday, provoked an angry reaction from Mancini at the club's Carrington training ground. Balotelli received a severe dressing down from a furious Mancini in front of the stunned City squad, and was then apparently ordered to train on his own. The Barclays Premier League title contenders dismissed the row as an example of the high standards set by Mancini, who himself provoked controversy at the weekend after refusing to speak to the media following City's 1-1 draw at Stoke. But the training ground incident will fuel speculation that the Blues are feeling the heat in their bid to land their first top-flight title since 1968.
Is his brother still on trial with us, might be some pulling power lol I do think they have blown the title, when Man U get ahead they are really hard to catch. But i do think we are going to get taught a lesson on Sat, hope I am wrong just cant see us getting anything at all.
Balotelli is a crack pot, but quiet a funny....No doubt one a given day a cracking player to... As for the cracks in City.....bet Dzeko, Tevez Nasri and co are ****ting themselves about facing a defence containing Turner and the Greek.....not.
Greek is out mate, so it will be the mighty Turner and Killa (hopefully). In all farness I wouldn't mind Killa, was really good before he got injured and IMO he is better than Turner and the Greek.
Brown is about ready and will they be ****ting themselves about meeting us, would say not, however, they wont be looking forward to it, they will be ****ting themselves about losing, they did last time we met, they lost at Swansea, they have seen United overtake them, they know that a loss even though unlikely would probably see them 6 points behind, they are all very good footballers but they know they were bought to win a title, they are in real danger of losing it. All of this is my point, pressure can do strange things to people, they have it on Saturday, we don't so I certainly am not writing us off, never will with MON at the helm
