Euro 2012: Balotelli speaks to the media

Italy striker Mario Balotelli spoke to the media on Saturday and, as always, had a few interesting things to say.

In response to his agent dubbing him a Peter Pan figure off the pitch, Super Mario insisted that he s more of a man than Peter Pan.

I think these two metaphors are for Mario the person, not Mario the footballer, the Manchester City man told reporters. I think I am a man.

I could be Peter Pan as in some of my behaviour I’m quite free, but I certainly feel more of a man than a Peter Pan.

Balotelli may think he s a Peter Pan personality, but surely he doesn t hang out with the likes of mermaids, Indians, fairies and pirates.

With that said, would you be that surprised if the City striker claimed to know a mermaid or two?…
