I really hope Milan decide to offload him in the summer and sign either Tevez or Balotelli in his place... With Cassano back, plus Ibra, Maxi, and Shaarawy, that would make up a pretty good strike force. Pato is a whole problem on his own that needs sorting out.


Both Tevez and Balotelli gave City a lot of trouble why would you want to get them.

Milan specialize in taking in players who have trouble with their club XD
Ex: Ibrahimovic, Robinho, Cassano

Seriously speaking though, both Tevez and Balotelli have expressed interest in playing with Milan and they will probably be of good use to us. Balotelli in particular has been a Milan fan since his childhood (despite playing for Inter early in his career).

ZARAGOZA-FCB (Line-up): Valdés, Alves, Puyol, Mascherano, Adriano, Keita, Thiago, Cesc, Pedro, Alexis, Messi

Glad to see Alexis and Adriano back in the starter, though no Xavi nor Iniesta :\

Also, Rayo are currently up 6-0 against Osasuna, thats pretty crazy stuff!

That's true I guess. I would prefer Tevez over Balotelli, but at the same time, I wouldn't want Milan to just let a striker of Balotelli's ability to move back to Inter (or any other big Serie A rival for that matter) without at least obtaining Tevez XD

In a perfect world, I'd like to see Balotelli mature at Manchester City and then move to Milan. It seems Man City and Mancini have their limits with him too however...

I think Ibra is a far more compete player then Balotelli right now, he still has a lot to learn and has to mature so much before he can really start becoming a great player.

uhh no they were 2-1 up against 11. And theyve been pretty much dominating the game start to finish. Everyone gets chances to score against Barca when they lob up it up against 2 defenders on rubbish pitches. Nothing out of the ordinary. Zaragoza's diving and playacting is putting Barca to shame. Its really just the spanish culture .

Edit: Anyone notice Messis been hit by like 5 harder pullbacks, throat slashes and bumps then the one that got Ashley Cole the penalty in midweek. Thank God europe isnt like that.

While I agree with what you say about barca dominating and zaragoza diving, I really feel like there should have been a penalty awarded for Postiga. The Barca defender did not come near the ball, he did go down pretty easily but they failed to make contact with the ball and just the player.

Yea well by that criteria Messi's won like 5-6 penalties already. I already mentioned.

Meh, Sanchez was looking for that, such naive defending, hes not going anywhere why stick your leg out like that.

Man this Gol TV guy is hilarious. He literally creams his pants everytime Messi touches the ball or Barca string to passes together.

That's true of course. Ibra is arguably one of the top 10 strikers today (in his best form, possibly top 5 even). I'd like to see Balotelli play for Milan in the future, but preferably after he develops and matures both his skill and personality.

Top 5 would be difficult because theres to many prolific guys in the same class as him Messi, Rooney, RVP. Ronaldo. even Gomez Hiquain and Benzema are more prolific this season in particular. In terms of value to his team hes top 5 easy. But still behind the first of those 4.

Well I was exaggerating a fair bit on the start to finish part. The first 30 or so minutes Barca were really mediocre. Like title is over mediocre. But after the equaliser there was only one winner.
