Am I the only one around here who would take him over Costa any day?

Mourinho can handle his ego and help him get even better IMO

I've always been a fan of Mario FOR his antics more than his playing. To be honest both of the men don't have the attitudes of leaders, but Mario is funny and that's something that I've always felt Chelsea had, funny guys. I've always loved the amount of humor this club outputs, its unmatched. I also really like Mario's story, he's a survivor. In terms of the person they are I'd take Mario by a long shot (and Mario himself is a risky personality). When I think about they're kind of evenly matched so I don't know why I'm picking Mario so easily, guess I just really like the guy. Costa has more man strength you can see it when he fights off defenders. I still think that if getting Costa means unloading Torres that one is a no brainer.

The black Ibrahimovic. Wouldn't mind too much us signing him with Mourinho here. Would be about 2 times cheaper than Cavani and I don't see him being too happy in a mid-table team. What are the news from Italy? Is he happy in Milan or do we have a realistic shot?

He really is, him and Ibra have such similar career paths it's crazy.

He's matured a bit at Milan, if he comes here at CFC and is fully focused he'd be a magnificent striker for us, and like you said, wouldn't be too expensive either.

Didn't he already say he won't play for another English team?

All comments like that have to be taken with a pinch of salt. Seeing as Milan won't be getting champions league football next season, I wouldn't be surprised if he indeed would consider moving somewhere else. If you add the comments he said regarding "mutual respect" and "real friendship" with Mourinho I think we really do have a realistic shot of signing him this summer.

That being said, if he can't be controlled he won't be worth the money. But if Mourinho were to bring him in I would have full confidence in him bringing out the best of Balotelli, both on pitch and off it. He does seem to have matured in his Milan days and to be honest, most great strikers nowadays are cunts.

Would take him any day over our current forwards (as most would, I assume). Having him as first striker and Lukaku as back up to him next season would give us two young, talented strikers with different abilities if we need to change it up. Would be ideal in my books.

I firmly believe Juve would be the right club for balo to fulfill his undoubted potential.He always performs for Italy because he has a manager that believes in him not to mention a number of well respected senior players(Pirlo,DDR,Chiellini,Buffon) who must have a positive influence on Balotelli.Both of these things he will get at Juventus but Milan probably wont sell him to them albeit it wont be the first of it's kind transfer in Italian football.

If it weren't for his attitude problems I reckon there'd be a bidding war over him. As it stands though £30m could probably get him and considering that's a similar price to what we'd have to pay for Costa coupled with the fact that Costa is hardly mentally mature on the pitch and that Balotelli is a much more gifted footballer I would opt for Balotelli.
