Mario Balotelli - A Worthy Signing?

in my man city save i never had any problems with him!
he is a quality player and you must keep him.
form a good relationship through praises and then even when u fine him he will say he understands!
most of people here judge him by his real world temperment not in the game!
in the game you can even have a bad relationship with the likes of terry,gerrard etc.
 
Ability Wise - A very good player who will get you goals if you play him right.

But

Because of his poor attitude , he rarely reaches his potential ability because he is always unhappy or requesting transfers.In the long run , the poor morale will rub off on the rest of your squad.
 
in my game he is banging in goals werever he is he was bangin them in for man city before his poor attitude got him transfer listed and he was bangin them in for everton before his poor attitude forced him to be dropped and get transfer listed .all in all a wonderful player if played right but poor in the long run
 
Just bought him for Cagliari! 12 million euros, a bargain, lets hope he can cope with the team and reach his potential.
 
I'm tepted by his versatility in my Hertha save - he's floating around on a free but his lack of profesionalism worries me. I have an extremely professional squad and we're going for 3 straight in the Bundesliga. I remember buying Amr Zaki who is just as bad in terms of personality in FM2010 and he almost singlehandedly cost me the Pro league (he was my replacement for Lukaku)
 
He is a GOD Fantastic player who is versatile can play AMR/L/ST if you need him too he is amazing at poacher and his attitude isn't that bad just praise him when he does well and don't force him to lean a PPM if he doesn't want to
Got him for 4.8 mil
been my top goalscorer for last two seasons with 23 league goals and 28 goals

must buy
 
make sure you get him a personal assistant, just to help him with the hard stuff like putting on a bib and to take darts off him just incase he tries to throw them at people :P
 
if u dont mind spending a bit more money buy chicharito!! im in my 2nd season for man utd 46 goals in 53 matches 10 from the bench!! different class jst play him as poacher or target man
 
Cost-Benefit analysis-quite simple. is it worth the poor morale for a few goals? what happens in my saves is he starts out ok, but if he doesnt play every game, he starts complaining. given he's on 80-100 grand a week and having absolute stinkers especially when he's upset, he makes me want to break my laptop. try him and see, but you've been warned-you may have to call this one a loss if he starts acting like a prat.
 
In my games he rarely reaches his potential. He usually doesn't get any playtime because of the wealth of strikers City has, this results in him becoming unhappy and usually he ends up without contract picked up by championship sides.

Heres a screenshot of him in one of my latest saves (I played Alfreton up to premier and they signed balotelli on free after i left the club)

Yep Ascoli just signed him on a free at 24 I couldn't be bothered signing him as I realised right now he'd be backup with those stats and he'd never get a run so he'd just complain.
 
I signed him for Liverpool in the 4th season and so far he has been OK. He has moaned once when i asked him to stop arguing with officails but soon forgot about it when he scored a hattrick and i praised him.
 
I've had him for 4 years at Spurs and the only negative thing I'd say about him is he disappears in big games. Play him against a team down the bottom of the league and he'll score 4. But when he comes up against big teams he can't hit a barn door. Scored me a lot of goals over the years though, and I've not had any problems with him disrupting the squad.
 
Pros: scores goals
Cons: eats up the wage bill + can't put on his bib
