Balotelli has been the subject of intense debate and scrutiny since his move from Inter Milan in August 2010. Man City fans love him, Man Utd fans hate him, but there is something so unique about the 21 year old Italian - something which sees him loved by neutral fans from all over the world. From his absurd arrogance, to his off-field antics, there is fast becoming a glut of videos, articles and clips all over the Internet devoted to the maverick. Whether or not his stay in Manchester will be a long one, he will already be remembered as one the most watchable stars ever to grace the Premier league. I thought it prudent to compile some of his best video moments!

Arguably his most famous moment to date, Mario vs Bib tipifies his talents. Whilst training ahead of the ill fated loss to Dynamo Kiev in March 2011, Balotelli was handed a training bib. What followed will continue to amuse and bemuse for years to come.

LA Galaxy will remember Super Mario for one reason only; his failed backheel in the pre season match in July. Through on goal, the teenager contrived to spin round and flick a nonchalant effort well wide of goal to the horror of strike partner Edin Dzeko. Mancini was also not amused, as he hauled Mario off and attempted to berate him for his effort. This didnt fly with the enigmatic Italian, who simply waved his hand and strolled down the touchline.
As ridiculous as it was, it didnt seem to dampen Dzeko's mood towards him for long - as this training ground muck about shows.

The end of a training session. The cameraman doesnt seem to get it. Mario gives him a hand.

It is evident that Balotelli has an obvious effect on his fellow footballers. I for one, never saw Francesco Totti as a particularly nasty player; a touch aggressive, but not vicious. Well, Mario soon changed that with a darting run down the flank whilst playing for Inter - what followed was simply heinous.

Well...I'm sure we'll see plenty more of young Mario in the coming months. Scour the internet, upload and share. Lets get Balotelli that crown he deserves!
He's ill
