Balotelli ashikana mashati na J. Boateng!!!

Manchester City players Mario Balotelli and Jerome Boateng had be separated by their team-mates in Friday's training session at the club's Carrington training ground.

Balotelli reacted angrily after a tackle from the German defender and the two were involved in a heated exchange before being pulled apart by fellow City players.

The duo later reconciled their differences but this latest incident will do manager Roberto Mancini no favours at a time when the Italian is denying that the mega-rich club have any problems inside their dressing-room.

Italian forward Balotelli is renowned as a troublesome character and fell out with former manager Jose Mourinho whilst both were at Inter last season, something that led to the 'special one' warning City against signing the forward.

"The guy has incredible qualities, but sometimes does not know how to use his brain," Mourinho told The Sun last summer.

Liverpool wamtengea dau Clint Dempsey...

Roy Hodgson is set to raid his former club Fulham in January by bringing striker Clint Dempsey to Liverpool, according to reports.

Hodgson is desperate to add some more attacking players to his goal-shy Liverpool side and reportedly believes 27-year-old Dempsey would be a valuable asset in the final third.

The USA international can play in a number of positions going forward and, after Fulham’s poor start to the season, may look to move to a bigger club.

Fulham lie 17th in the Premier League with only two wins, having succumbed 2-1 to Arsenal at the weekend. While the west London outfit has struggled, Dempsey has thrived — scoring six goals in all competitions this season.

Liverpool have struggled for goals in the Premier League this season, with only 17 in 15 games. Dempsey's versatility may prove to be too enticing for Hodgson to turn down, and it is rumored the 63-year-old is readying a £10 million bid for the Texan.
