Balotelli getting ahead of himself

We know what an extraordinary talent City have on their hands in Mr Balotelli. He is however, guilty of making the headlines on the front pages as often, if not more than, on the back pages. He has come out and proclaimed their new front line of himself, Tevez and Dzeko as better than that of Barcelona’s and Real’s. Madrid have a super thin front line at this moment (Ronaldo the solo act), so that’s probably true.

However, to then proclaim that the City front 3 are more potent than a frontline of Messi, Villa and Pedro/Bojan, is up for dispute. This is a team that scores for fun and has already netted 61 goals in 19 La Liga games this season.

Mario, you guys haven’t won anything yet. Maybe you should save the boasting for when/if City pick up a title. At least then, you’ll have something to back up that talk.
