Van Persie never does much in games he drifts in and out, doesn't track back, doesn't run a whole lot, but he is a lethal finisher and would have buried at least one of Marios chances. He had an assist as well as his goal yesterday even though the goal was offside. I appreciate Mario put in a long overdue shift the half he played and should start the next game as a result. But I just don't see him scoring goals for us. He will require about 5 clear cut opportunities every game to score one. Top strikers like RVP don't need to play brilliantly every game because they take their opportunities when presented and score an average of a goal every 2 games. I can't see Balotelli ever doing this for us.
Not if De Gea was between the sticks he wouldnt have.
Wow, so it's all Danny's fault Balotelli hasn't scored a single PL goal and we are on 10th position? It's Danny who has let the team down? F**k me sideways I've heard it all now.
Stop putting words in my mouth, I never said it was his fault that Balo hasnt scored what kind of logic are you using? but with him Sterling and Balotelli, those 3 could of worked well together, who knows?
And yes he has let us down to an extent, Whilst hes getting "warm weather training" in the US chilling with his buddy Drake and all his rapper friends, he could atleast be with the team. Im saying all this because im so desperate for him back into the starting team. But yes i dont think we would be placed 10th if Studge was in the team we would be alot higher.
If Balotelli went to America and started knocking about with rappers, Us fans would be tearing him apart.
Double standards mate.
