The Liverpool FC Thread XIV

A report on the Milan defeat this weekend: "If the lack of cohesion was understandable, given the two players’ scant experience of playing together, then Balotelli’s indifferent body language and failure to impose himself on his own terms were harder to justify. He did not touch the ball once in Sassuolo’s penalty area, and was subbed off in the 55th minute."

Oh, Mario.

What are you doing?

He only turns 26 in the summer. I imagine he'll end up in China eventually where he can get a ton of money. Doesn't seem to care enough to play at a top European club and I imagine he'd be a nightmare at a club who were fighting relegation for example.

No doubt he has a lavish lifestyle so it's not like he's going to retire young either.

Apparently he's kept his head down and worked hard in training since being at Milan. It's just not translating into performances on the pitch. Granted, he hasn't been helped by injuries, but neither has Bacca.

The difference is Bacca is industrious and that translates well to the crowd and pays dividends. Balotelli is a luxury, and when he's not playing well, it's one you can't afford.

he held the club to hostage on multiple occasions and is welcomed back like a hero after achieving nothing there

Strong cuckoldry.

We can't all do it like Arsenal where their best ex find a new and better girlfriend in Man City and shacks up with them instead of coming back. Even Bergkamp prefers Ajax over Arsenal.

thought Zero was being bitter today, then he posts this.

is the cuckoldry real brah

I've never found any Arsenal fans who can explain why ex-players don't come back. Is it Wenger or the club?

Oh you mean like Pires or Henry orrrr

The same Henry who did exactly the same thing as Suarez?

But that's not cuckoldry..?

Swirly is so rustled.

No because he had repaid the faith the fans and the club put in him by that point by winning numerous trophies for the club and fans. And the board were happy to receive the transfer fee they got, as it entered a period of financial austerity. There wasn't much else he could have done for the club, and to keep him here would have been to hold him back. In many regards, it's much more akin to how SAF let Phil Neville go, and while it was Phil's wife who was crying when he left Old Trafford, Thierry has admitted himself that he cried when he left Arsenal.

Now compare that to Suarez who repaid the faith and time Liverpool put in him by winning one league cup against Cardiff, and then biting himself to bigger and better things. The club even tried to stand by him the first time #cucked

He will be remembered and thanked for getting a mid table squad into the top 4 and almost to a PL title, that season was incredible to watch even though we didn't win anything other than the 2nd place trophy :P.
