Mario Balotelli has always been known for his controversy in and out of the field especially about his constant praise of his favorite team Ac Milan, however the striker now seemed to settle with life in Eastlands especially after saying his positive words about his current manager and teammates.
to the currently Injured Italian international, Roberto Mancini, is a great manager and possibly will be better than Fifa’s manager of the year Jose Mourinho simply because Mancini treats people better than the Portuguese.
Mancini is the most important tactician I’ve ever had. He will soon become the best in the world. As a man he is already 10km in front of Mourinho. Mourinho may be the best Coach in the world, but he still needs to learn respect and how not to be so rude,” Balotelli told La Gazzetta dello Sport.
Balotelli’s spat at Mourinho is not a surprising thing considering the fact that he has had some problems with the Real Madrid coach during their time at Inter as they player hasn’t really had plenty of playing time under Mou’s reign at Inter. Although the Italian international previously stated that he actually learned a lot under the Portuguese coach, it seems that his preference over Mancini is an obvious thing considering that the Italian tactician is the one who promoted him to Nerazzurri’s first team few seasons ago.
Aside from praising Mancini, Balotelli also had words of affection towards some of his new teammates at Manchester City such as Adam Johnson, Patrick Viera, Alexander Kolarov and even Emmanuel Adebayor. This positive words is surely an inspiring thing for City’s fans who have previously been served with negative news regarding Balo which pretty much stating that he isn’t having a good time at Eastlands.
“Adam Johnson has great technique and Emmanuel Adebayor is the funniest. Patrick Vieira and Aleksandr Kolarov really helped me out when I first arrived,” Ballotelli added.
The striker is currently still facing another injury that has kept him away in that last couple of matches, allowing his current starting place in the club being occupied by City’s new striker Edin Dzeko. The Italian international has had a pretty good start in his first experience in the league in terms of goal ration but seems to have more injury issues lately compared from his previous time back in Italy.
