Down to Ten Men

Manchester City striker Mario Balotelli's agent has said that his client's unsellable before, but he is now untouchable. The Italian had an excellent Euro 2012 after emerging as one of the top scorers with three goals in the competition.

He also helped Italy qualify for the final of the competition, although he could not prevent Spain from romping to a 4-0 victory in the final of the competition. It was said during the final few months of the last Premier league campaign that Manchester city would be interested in selling the Italian, who has caused a lot of troubles at Eastlands.

Manchester city striker Mario Balotelli has said that he would not think twice when it comes to killing anyone who racially abuses him at the Euro 2012. Mario Balotelli will be travelling with the Italian squad for the Euro 2012 in Poland and Ukraine.

Both countries have a history of racism, which has been highlighted by the British media. A number of black players currently playing in the UK will be travelling to Poland and Ukraine to play in the Euro 2012. Mario Balotelli is among them, but the Italian striker admitted that he would not be willing to tolerate any kind of racism.

Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech has said that the club's hopes of finishing in the top four this season looks finally over after suffering a 2-0 defeat at the hands of Newcastle in the latest midweek action. It has been a tough fixture list for Chelsea over the last few weeks.

It finally took its toll after the club managed to lose the most important match 2-0, while it also handed rivals Newcastle United with a major opportunity to finish in the top four. After the match, in which Petr Cech was beaten by two extraordinary goals from Newcastle United striker Cisse, Cech admitted that finishing in the top four will now be tough with only two matches remaining and five points required to be dropped by two teams.

Despite the arrival of star striker Robbie Keane from England, LA Galaxy have been struggling in the last few weeks.

Many have attributed to this poor run of form by the club managed by Bruce Arena to the lack of star midfielder David Beckham, who is the main supply line.

David Beckham proved that this is once again the case by returning in a scoring fashion in the match against Chicago Fire recently. LA Galaxy are currently bottom of the MLS table after having won the title last season. Just when it seemed that they would not be a challenger at the top of the table this season, David Beckham returned to provide two crucial goals for the club against Chicago Fire.

Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini has said that striker Mario Balotelli has been fined to the tune of £ 120,000 after his latest misdemeanour.

Mario Balotelli is regarded as one of the biggest characters in English football right now. However, good aspects of his character come about occasionally while the bizarre ones crop up on a regular basis.

The latest one came only a few weeks ago when he was pictured coming out of the strip club in Liverpool when Manchester City were set to face Bolton 36 hours later. This drew intense criticism from Roberto Mancini, who has always defended Mario Balotelli in difficult circumstances.

Manchester United midfielder Ji sung Park has said that there are occasions when Manchester United fans simply expect too much from their side because of the past success.

Manchester United are one of the most successful English clubs around. They have lifted a record 19 domestic league titles in addition to the three Champions League titles as well.

They trail only Liverpool in terms of the number of Champions League titles, thus making them one of the most successful English clubs around. It is pretty natural that with success comes expectations and Ji sung Park is of the opinion that the expectation around Old Trafford at times is slightly exceeding reality.
