I think this bloke is absolute rubbish and everywhere he's played, he's proved it. I can't believe so many top managers have fallen for his mystique, and yet none of them has managed to get the best out of him, and I believe there's a very good reason for that. He doesn't have a 'best'.
Having said all that, when Rogers put him on last night, I got a sinking feeling. I just bloody well knew that having gone the entire season without a Premier League goal, he'd pop one in against us, and at 2-2 that was not a nice feeling.
Some of my friends think I have an irrational hatred of this bloke, but that's not the case. There's nothing irrational about it.
I will never forget the deliberate head stamp he gave Scotty Parker up at the Etihad a few seasons ago. I can't forgive him and I won't forget. It was a deliberate attempt to seriously injure a fellow profesional, which is inexcusable.
A few years ago, when Maureen was in charge at Inter, he described Balotelli as being 'unmanageable'. I have never agreed with anything Maureen has said, but I can understand that one. Says it all.
