"On FIFA 13 the first player I would buy was Balotelli, he always ended up be World Class." Says Klopp is a hushed press conference before the Champions League final. "He has skill, goals, strength, work rate, what more could a manager ask for in a player?" Lewandowski before his career at Borussia Dortmund was compared to the likes of Iago Aspas and Bebe of Manchester United, Klopp took this man from being a laughing stock to the best striker in the World right now. Can he do the same with Mario Balotelli? "I've text him alright, asked if he would consider coming back to us and making him the best striker in the World, he replied with 'lol kk x.' This is a man who knows what he wants" The next question would be is, would making him captain make him a better player? Players like Wayne Rooney and Ivanovic this season have taken in the armband and have gotten better and better, Manchester are 3rd at the moment and Ivanovic has been incredible so far, it's been the team around him letting him down. Mario Balotelli has been called many things in his career; Legend, World Class, better than Ronaldo and Messi out together and his most famous line 'work rate of a horse.' Liverpool fans must be eager to have him back and rightfully take his throne as the best striker in the World. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/europe/4573159.stm Article from BBC.
