Balotelli claims Man City attack is 'better than Barca'
Mario Balotelli believes that Manchester City's new-look strike force is the best in world football.
Currently out with a knee injury, the 20-year-old says he cannot wait to link up with new £27m signing Edin Dzeko and the club's captain Carlos Tevez.
"Our attack of Balotelli-Tevez-Dzeko is the best in the world," he said on Tuesday. "We are the strongest. Better even than Barcelona and Real Madrid."
The Italian also claimed he is better than Manchester United's Wayne Rooney.
"He [Rooney] is a very good player but not the best in Manchester," former Inter Milan striker Balotelli, who also feels that United fans admire him, told Italian newspaper Gazetta dello Sport.
"Do United fans insult me? No, they stop me in the street and say: 'Mario, come to us'. But I dream of beating them because I know how much the City fans care. They are wonderful with me."
England international Rooney, who has also suffered with injury in recent months, has scored three times this season while Balotelli has scored eight times since moving from Italy in August.
City manager Roberto Mancini has already declared his intention to unite Dzeko and Tevez in attack with Balotelli, who recently won the Fifa Young Player of the Year award.
After that prize was announced, he claimed to have never heard of the runner-up - Arsenal's Jack Wilshere.
And his latest comments are likely to cause surprise at World Player of the Year Lionel Messi's Barcelona, the reigning Spanish champions and 2009 Champions League winners, now widely considered to be one of the greatest attacking teams of all time.
He has also hit out at Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho, whom he played under at Inter for the past two seasons as the pair fell out consistently over Balotelli's attitude.
Former Chelsea manager Mourinho banished him from the first team for seven matches last season before Inter finished with an unprecedented treble in Italian football with Balotelli mostly a substitute.
"Mourinho is the best coach in the world but as a man he has a lot to learn about politeness and respect," added Balotelli.
"[But Mancini] he's the most important coach I've had. Soon he'll be the best in the world. As a man he's 10km ahead of Mourinho."
Balotelli has been ordered to rest for a couple of weeks after which his present injury, which may need an operation, will be assessed.

Lots of potential but a total ****ing loon.
Jim Beglin said the other night commentating on their game that he has everything this lad but for whatever reason he is simply not happy, nothing is or ever will be enough to make him happy.
On a more serious note he does seem to be getting better, if he gets subbed now then he doesn't throw a hissy fit like he has been doing of late and he actually shakes the hand of the player that's just replaced him.
Still has question marks over his discipline, loves taking swipes at people for no reason.
He is a **** but I admire him because he doesn't give a **** and is a total cunt.Klopp on LFC vs MUFC (March 9th 2016) - "This is why I love football. This is why we watched it when we were young. I can still not have enough of it."

Always, keep your face to the sun, and shadows will fall behind you.
