Mancini loses patience with Balotelli

Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini has warned Mario Balotelli’s entire career could be over in two years after admitting he would “probably” sell the striker this summer.

Mancini feared Jose Mourinho’s claim Balotelli was “unmanagable” would prove prophetic if the 21-year-old continues to be overcome by the kind of madness that got him sent off again in yesterday’s 1-0 defeat at Arsenal.
