Yes he did actually try but at times he was a bad penny also who was disruptive at times.

Part of the fault is the manager. The license he gave ballotelli, and then surprised others acting same way?

No matter. What is done, is done. I don't see any point looking back, the new season is my focus

Mancini's biggest error was not backing Balotelli. He treated him dreadfully.

Balotelli is a central striker but only played there about 20% of the time, and then Mancini criticised him saying he should do better when he was on the left wing.

It was telling he scored in the games he was played up front. And then dropped again.

A side-note to the same point, Mancini's rotation policy was bizarre. He would chop and change up front (partly because 4 strikers was too much) constantly, but would play Yaya every single game to the point of exhaustion.

Well with us down from 4 to 2 strikers, we only need 1 as 4 is too much, given we should be playing with just the 1 next season.

I personally, would just get a young guy and have Aguero as main striker, Dzeko as next guy (would help him as he likes being *the* main man and not 4th choice).

We need a proven striker...inventive midfielder, and a defender

Not sure about pepe..but reserve judgement

And i would dump nasri..take what we can get for him

Oh, and ballotelli was spoiled...that was the issue, should have sold him last summer, would have got a reasonable fee

How?

He was vilified for the colour of his car (& his skin), his hair etc... not judged on football.

He will be the best player in the world within 5 years.

Are you serious?

He was vilified as he was an idiot, both off the park and on it.

He cost us points with his petulance on the pitch, and embarrassment off it.

Nothing to do with his colour.

When that did happen (most often abroad) it was done equally to other black players.

Yes he was a good player, but brought more trouble then advantage. He only played when interested, and wanted back to Italy
