Sky Sports abuse of Balotelli

[Jimmy85]

You're all still welcome btw. 

[MarkoRaj]

I wonder where he goes from here.

If he fails at Liverpool, as looks likely, he'll need to take a step down to a Stoke, West Ham or Juventus type level.

HB prescient as ever lol

Since posting this Juventus have won 2 Serie A titles and reached the Champions League final

This is a great thread btw

[Miguel Sanchez]

Juventus a step down from Liverpool

Supras

Anthony

Northern Rock

Fantastic that two guys unrelentingly arguing with each other could both end up so hilariously wrong and be laughing stocks of the forum.

[Twinkle]

This may be an unpopular opinion, but i miss those two clowns. The place isnt the same without their stupidity


Actually scrap that. The tedium brought by both was too overwhelming

[Distant Doonhamer]

I quite liked Carragher`s comment that even as a free transfer Nice are still paying over the odds.

Supras and H_B were essentially the Old Firm of Misc. Football. Two lips of the same fanny, continuously sniping at each other, and far more exposure and coverage than everyone else. Then one of them died (Supras banned) and the other just became a bit of a laughing stock that everyone still hated but kind of pitied without its scumbag brother to battle against, a lone puppy with no toys or playmate.

It's probably quieter in this section without them, but it's definitely less tedious and a far better level of debate as a result. FTS&HB

They were fucking awful and ruined every thread with their banal shite. It was just the exact same argument going on in every single thread at the same point.

Even if one of the didn't bite, the other would just keep trying until they got a reaction.

P&B is better without them.

"I never said that Balotelli was world class"

*links to post where Supras says Balotelli is world class*

"You'll have to do better than that!"

Eh, OK.

Not sure if serious.

Be specific.

Pretty sure you almost verged on agreeing that balotelli was world class

HB is still here though.

Not sure I've seen his Scotsquid alias post once on this subforum. Tragic how dependent he and Supras were on each other.

I definitely agreed that Balotelli had the potential to be world class, and he did, there were games where he was utterly phenomenal (Manchester derby, Euros against Germany, FA Cup final, etc) which more than highlighted this. Bad career choices have massively stalled, if not ruined his career though, not lack of ability.

Doesn't detract from the fact that Supras (who I actually found entertaining from time to time) and H_B were a couple of prize shitgoblins though.

Balotelli was right about Jamie Carragher on Twitter.

"Jamie Carragher, bad player, wonderful hater @Carra23 ,who cares."

No he sticks to politics and Alan Stubbs threads now.

[stumigoo]

I think it was a P&B initiation for many of us to have at least one proper argument with Supras. I had one about how Andy van der Meyde had thrown his career away; fond memories. Very specific memories.

Why does Balotelli even care what Carragher says. Getting involved in this shite is why his career is going down the pan. The way to prove Carragher wrong is to work hard, regain his form and resurrect his career.

Instead Carragher is right and Balotelli is continuing his carrer path to the Italian regional leagues

[RandomGuy.]

Balotelli still has a 6 month stint in Dubai and then a contract in the USA which ends with him only ever playing 20 minutes to go, before he ends up back in Italy.
