Balotelli will be nowhere (maybe at Pescara in D :wink:) if he does not fix his attitude.

agree with you there, he is a GUN....He's also dating Maradona's daughter so hopefully Diego pushes him in the right direction to get a transfer to Napoli :wink: him and Lavezzi up front would be unstopable

Personally I would have it:

1. Sergio Aguero
2. Bojan Krkic
3. Alexandre Pato
4. Theo Walcott
5. Anderson

And after that I'm not fussed.

It's a tuttosport poll, you'd get more sense from a primary school students :lol:

Personally rating individuals (particularly youngsters) in a team sport is a load of toss.

If that happened and I was you, I'd be on the first plane to Pescara and offer to play on the cheap.

Serious suggestion.
