Football is a very interesting sport. It is interesting because we must understand its high and low's. As a player when you are doing well , the fans will sing your praise and even Journalists will write some nice things about you. But the moment you slip,same people who used to sing and write nice things about you will turn and demand for your head,It is natural in life and very reoccurring in football. Same is what Mario Balotelli is facing now from some section of the media and Liverpool fans.Some have said that Mario Balotelli is the biggest flop of all times and i think they are not saying the truth.
I saw today on DM that Mario Balotelli has cost Liverpool £19.24m per league goal, £962,000 per shot and £80,000 per pass since arriving at Anfield, they went further to state that Balotelli has scored just one Premier League goal
and ''has created just 10 chances and had 20 shots on target in 16 games''.
Please permit me to say that i am astonished with some of the data remarks i see on the news concerning this great player. Some of the fans have gone out of their way to send hate and racists messages on his social media twitter handle. How has that helped Liverpool ? As it stands now , Balo is working so hard to prove one point. That he is worth 16 million pounds spent on bring him and no matter how he struggles ,the only thing that seems meaningful to these people is that his best is not just good enough, Many of whom never supported Brendan Rogers idea of bring him to Anfield now
see this as a yardstick to attack Balotelli and say all manner of things against his approach to football at Liverpool.
My worry is that this man has been driven into perpetual pressure.Balo has been singled out for not delivering goals in exchange for all the pounds spent on him.Football should be more about team work and less about an individual. Balotelli hasn't lit up the league this season,That's unarguably correct but please Liverpool fans should quit blame games and support Balotteli and don't blame him. Liverpool should accept that it didn't just work for Balotelli at Anfield and move on .
Now they call Balotelli names and even accuse their coach for wrong signings. Same coach you guys called Super. If i dont say thank you to all the Liverpool fans who have one way or the other criticized Balotelli for poor performance then i will thank them for selling Fernando Torres to Chelsea for a record fee of 50million pounds. That was a deal that broke British transfer window record. Torres in 2007 had scored a total of 91 goals in 244 appearances. In three years of Fernando's stay at Chelsea he scored only 20 goals . Now how many years has Balotelli spent at Liverpool ?
When Andriy Shevchenko came to Chelsea in 2006 for a record fee of £30.8million pounds he had already scored 127 goals from 227 appearances in Milan. He was one of the best strikers in the world. Chelsea had bought him believing he would bring all his goals to Stamford Bridge but low and behold his goals never followed him. Shevchenko scored just 9 goals from 48 top-flight matches. He spent three years at Chelsea. How many years has Balotelli spent at Liverpool ?
