Roberto Mancini: 'Mario Balotelli needs to change'

By , Rugby Editor
Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini says that controversial striker Mario Balotelli needs to change his behaviour.

Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini has said that Mario Balotelli needs to change his behaviour.

The controversial striker was criticised in the week over allegedly playing on an iPad while on the bench for Italy, and is also wanted for questioning by Italian police over potential mafia links.

"I am disappointed because everything that Mario does is a big situation," said Mancini.

"Mario is 21 years old, he can change in two months, three months or six months.

"The moment he changes his mind, he changes everything."

City, who host Wigan Athletic on Saturday, currently sit second in the Premier League on goal difference behind local rivals Manchester United.
