I would LOVE to see Balotelli in an Albion shirt. It would be pure mentalism and most likely a total disaster. But amazing fun. Just imagine...?!Running alongside the Welbeck story is the one about Balotelli. Apparently, he's left Marseille, he's available on a free and he's been offered to West Ham. His agent is touting him at £70K per week. 41 goals in 73 matches in the French top flight indicate he's still got it, and he's interested in coming back to the Prem. That's going to tempt a few chairmen.
Football suicide but comedy perfection. It's all about entertainment right? [emoji6]
A fully fit, firing on all cylinders Welbeck is an asset to any club. Just look when he was at his best for England.
Sadly, getting *that* Welbeck is as much likely as finding rocking horse shit. It's a shame as he's a class player but made of glass.
It's a no from me.

If fit he could possibly "do a job" down the middle - but its such a massive IF. He's not kicked a ball since November, when he had two operations to repair a broken ankle, so we don't know how well he'll have recovered from that. And coming from one of the Big 6, even though he's on a free, he'd be on such a monster wage it would still blow a big hole in our playing budget.
I'd also question how motivated he'd be, going from Man Utd, to Arsenal, to Brighton. Someone else mentioned Sturridge when he went on loan from Liverpool to WBA as their roll-of-the-dice to keep them up. He was an abject disaster, barely played or even looked interested, and this for me has all the hallmarks of being THAT kind of signing.
I just don't think he'd be a fit for us. Or fit.
No he's right. Welbeck is made of glass, Sturridge is made of Weetabix. Those are the facts.I was thinking more 'crisps'. Or whatever it is Hotpoint make washing machines out of (recycled polystyrene and plastic zyder bottles? )

Oh and Zaha is made out of cheap plastic and whatever weight thing they used to put in Weebles. But with a timer.
*Referee points to spot*
POP! He's up again.
You aren't keen, are you? Admit it. I know that far away look in your eyes, one of which is having a surreptitious butcher's at the exit door, and half your mind is calculating whether you can be out of here and in a cab to nowhere before you are asked to explain yourself more fully, with diagrams and a fully costed projected balance sheet
Yes at 20k a week, no at 120k+ which I expect some muppet club will pay.
He'd merely be a sub off the bench for us anyway.

If we’re going down this road then I’ll see your Danny Wellbeck and raise you a Daniel Sturridge........
