Roberto Mancini feels Manchester City striker Mario Balotelli can be amongst the best in the world
Manchester City manager http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mario-Balotelli-c23937, as the manager admits Balotelli can be amongst the best in the world one day.
The infamous striker has been making the headlines ever since he made the move to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 from Italy and the case was no different this past Sunday.
However, this time around, Balotelli was on the front pages for all the right reasons. The striker went on to score City’s opening goal in their game against Manchester United and his goal proved to be just what City needed to go on and beat United by six
goals to one.
Balotelli got the better of a number of United defenders, as he went on to dance around them and even went on to get http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Jonny-Evans-c19085 to see a red card, as he was taken down by the defender near the City area.
When talking about Balotelli, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mancini-c23323 is quoted to have said: “If we want to talk about Mario the football player we can put him in the first five players in the world”
“I don't know what happened apart from he lives in a hotel now. I hope for him and for football that Mario can change his mind. After this, he can become one of the best players in the world like Messi and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ronaldo-c31734."
“The problem is because of his age he can make some mistakes. He's Mario. He's crazy – but I love him because he's a good guy.”
Following his compliments about Balotelli, the manager then turned his attention to the Manchester derby, as the manager tired his best to contain his excitement. The defeat to City, was the worst the Manchester United had suffered at home in the Premier
League and was amongst the worst defeats that the team has ever suffered.
During the game, it seemed like City were operating on a completely different wavelength as compared to Manchester United. City were passing the ball better, creating the better opportunities and Balotelli’s goal was City’s first shot of the day. That just
goes to show, the blue side of Manchester were making the most of what they had, as opposed to United, who seemed to be rather invisible during the game.
The fact that City went on to score three goals in the final seven minutes of play just goes to prove that the tides of power might just be shifting over to the Etihad Stadium in Manchester.
