Balotelli insists he's better than Rooney, Fabregas after winning Golden Boy award

Mario Balotelli has been named the best young player in Europe - and claims he hasn't heard of second-placed Jack Wilshere.

The troublesome Manchester City striker won the prestigious Golden Boy award voted organised by Italian newspaper Tuttosport and voted for by journalists across Europe to recognise the most talented player Under 21.

Highly rated Atletico Madrid goalkeeper David de Gea - wanted by Manchester United - is third, but it is runner-up Wilshere who got Balotelli scratching his head.

Guys! Don't believe this! It came from Daily Mail! The same site which got exposed to faking interviews with players!

I know Balotelli is arrogant and all but c'mon! This was obviously edited/manipulated!

I was about to say the same thing you have already said Karim but once I read the source of this news, I immediately knew it was a fake.

Nice try Daily Fail.

Is that even legal? Copyright distribution? You must always credit the original source whenever you post a news/interview on your own site. But as it is, I don't see any "credits" there in Daily Mail. Or is it just me?

The Daily Mail doesn't have rules,that's why Chelsea Owner Abrahamovich is suing them
