Rodgers: Mario is a world-class talent

Brendan Rodgers considers Liverpool's capture of Italy striker Mario Balotelli, subject to registration, to be a genuine coup after the 24-year-old became the Reds' ninth new recruit of the summer transfer window.

The highly experienced forward completed the formalities of his switch from AC Milan at Melwood today, further bolstering the manager's options as the 2014-15 campaign gets underway.

Balotelli lists the Champions League, Barclays Premier League and Serie A title among his career honours, and has represented his country at both the World Cup and European Championships.

Rodgers is therefore delighted to have secured the services of the striker and believes his latest signing can maximise his potential under the guidance of the Reds' staff and playing squad.

"This transfer represents outstanding value for the club and I think we have done a really smart piece of business here," the boss told Liverpoolfc.com.

"There is no doubting Mario's ability; he is a world-class talent and someone who, for such a young age, has vast experience of playing at the very highest level.

"He has scored goals in the Barclays Premier League, in Italy, in the Champions League and for his country at international level.

"I believe we have the infrastructure, culture and environment to get the best out of him and help him achieve his true potential. We are a strong group here, committed to hard work and he will benefit from being around it.

"I am looking forward to working with him and helping him learn more, improve and progress as a player. I'm sure the supporters will make him feel very welcome."

Ballotelli has 1 assist in the PL.

Who was it for and in what game?

To Aguero to win the league.

Welcome Mario, I wasn't keen but you're here now so hopefully it doesn't go pear shaped. Not that you're reading this thread or anything. If you are though can I have a few grand? Cheers.

Shame Balotelli not available for this evening. Understand why so many sceptical but think he's a great signing for Liverpool

He's box office, too. No problem with morale at Liverpool but he'll give the place a lift after the loss of Suarez

[MrMichael]

Well, it is a great deal financially and the lad certainly has the talent. If he puts it all out there for us on a regular basis we'll have one hell of a player, I really hope he does just that. Welcome Mario

Set up Aguero for the winner against QPR which made them league champions

everybody thinks he's an overrated player. yes he has attitude problems, but if rodgers can manage his temperament, he could be a beast for this club!!

This is a proper exciting signing

I'm not a fan of the Mohawk, he looks a lot friendlier with a bit of hair all over

We don't want him looking friendly though. The mohawk stays.
