      Get Balo and deal with his ego later. We don't have much choice in the market unless we're willing to spend real big. Let's not waste more time and stop dallying. If we don't make our move soon, someone will.  17 mil sounds decent to me moreso he knows the EPL well.

      Would love to see the mad f**ker that Mario is at Anfield,f**k me you can imagine the vibe in the dressing room :D

      Rodgers & Peters are the ideal duo to sort our Mario' s pickled noodle but in all honesty I would not change Mario.

      Can't say I agree with that. I could be wrong but I've always seen him as toxic rather than inspiring.

      Reminds me of the man who wants to marry the prostitute thinking he can "change" her, and we all know how that story ends.

      But if he had a decent attitude he really could be a great footballer. Not worth the risk to me though.

      I seriously think he would be more of a liability than Suarez when he was here.

      personally I don't like super mario(as the italians call him)
       but if No Falcao,  Cavani,, reus, are coming
      I would go for a 3month deal--till January,
      with a view to extend  till june,
      with a view of a permanent deal
       Yes I would go for that,,  Its the italian clubs way of doing dealsn  Hehe
       LFC knows something about that

      Hope this Balotelli rumour has some truth behind it.

      He'd be brilliant for us.

      How so mate? I think Mario would surely come in as the partner/number 2 if it happens at all that is.

      I don't think Sturridge has any reason to be pissed off, he may even enjoy someone taking some of the pressure off. He'd be in the same situation whether we sign Balotelli or Falcao.

      He's a professional football player and competition is part of the job.

      I am with you in that boat. Suarez played with pride, passion, and a burning desire to not only score, but to win.

      Mario reminds me a bit of an immature child with a temper who just wants things to go his way but cries out for attention and shuts down when it's not in his favor.

      Don't get me wrong, I am completely understanding of his past and the sensitivity he has due to the way he's been treated and he's a very talented footballer with lots of potential, he's just got too much baggage I think. Not a distraction that our club can afford in my opinion.

      Balotelli for loan with option for permanent move is the better option. If he comes here, i believe he is going to be as he was with city, but only slightly better.

      Other than mario, we could go for Aubemeyang of Dortmund. Dortmund could sell him since they got Immobile and Adrian ramos, and with Reus returning from injury, Dortmund could be sell him.
      Obviously we want Reus more but it's an unlikely scenario that we get him.
      We have hope though, reus seems to be interested In champions league, which we are finally back in.
      I feel that Reus probably won't leave this season.

      I still believe our defense needs reinforcement. Nasatic of Man city was told he is surplus and that he can leave.
      He is pretty good and still young.
      If we could get him that would be great.
      I hope city doesn't mind selling to it's title rivals ;D

      And who is Nastasic better than Lovren, Sakho, Skrtel?

      We don't need another CB. We have Sakho, Agger, Skrtel, Lovren, Coates and Toure!
      We need a striker, and a good AM/CM if possible but it seems we're just looking for a striker now.

      I think our squad is too thin, unless BR plans to play Suso and Ibe regularly and thinks they can have an impact.

      Balotelli? Don't want him anywhere near the club. Sure he has ability but he also goes through long spells of playing crap, just look at how he is fizzling out at Milan after what was supposed to be the making of him. Why sign a player that in 18months would be wanting to leave again.

      He'd be more hassle than he's worth and there are better options, i.e. Falcao and Cavani who have been mentioned.

      We could just offer him an 18 month contract.....

      Maybe West Ham would be willing to sell AC back to us :/

      I agree. It's either Falcao or Cavani for me.

          Falcao,  Sturridge    Or   Sterling, Falcao, Sturridge
          Sterling/Coutinho                     Coutinho

      And if Borini leaves, sign up Firmino, please!

      The situation with Liverpool & Balotelli has moved on in the last 12 hours or so. An initial loan inquiry has led to talks with AC Milan.

      Tony Barrett @TonyBarretTimes
      Now it appears a permanent deal could be on the table. Talks are ongoing but still at an early stage.

      Aha I try I try.

      If we take a step back and forget about the recent hype of Falcao to Liverpool we might appreciate Balotelli a bit more. I think he'd be a good signing and can't see how he'd be a bad one bad boy attitude or not.

      Would certainly be interesting. But if we are settling for Mario I'd say it will be just him we bring in. We have enough talent behind Sturridge, Sterling and Mario to make it work.
