Italy’s national team manager, Cesare Prandelli has gone on to praise Manchester City striker, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mario-Balotelli-c23937 as he insisted that the forward has finally started to display signs of maturity, which can only be good news for him and the team’s that
he plays for.
Balotelli was on the score sheet for Italy, as he scored for the team, on their way to a three goals to one win over Denmark.
Following the performance that the striker displayed in the game, Prandelli is confident that Balotelli is finally starting to show signs of maturity, as he is accepting the responsibility that is placed on his shoulders.
"He has understood what he has to do for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Italy-c2926," Prandelli told reporters after Italy's win.
"I say that from now on the Balotelli in an Azzurri jersey has to be the one we saw at San Siro against the Danes."
In the past, Balotelli has often been condemned for his behaviour, actions and attitude. No one has ever labelled the striker to be a bad player, it is just the fact that he doesn’t act like a professional footballer, which starts to annoy everyone who works
with the player.
Prandelli feels that playing Balotelli in the starting eleven is a gamble, but should the striker continue to play the way he did against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Denmark-c2884, then he would be assured a spot in the starting eleven on a weekly basis.
"When I talk about Balotelli, I do not like the suggestion he is a gamble, but the moment has certainly come for him to take his share of responsibility in an Italy shirt," he continued.
"I want a national team that is always targeting improvement, even if I’d like to have more time to try out some young players."
The striker has been placed on the bench for Manchester City in recent weeks, but seeing how he played for the national team, and did so without causing any problems whatsoever, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mancini-c23323 is bound to consider starting him the near future.
Nonetheless, should Balotelli continue to display his new found maturity, he is bound to have an even bigger career as a footballer.
