Toni Duggan thinks the arrival of Swedish striker Kosovare Asllani will help Manchester City Women attract even larger crowds this season. Grant Hill Jersey . Citys average gate for home matches last term was 1500 supporters - more than double the 2014 league average - and the club also set an FA WSL record in last years season finale when 3,180 spectators attended their 2-1 win over Notts County Ladies.Asllani arrived from Paris Saint-Germain in the close season after a prolific three-and-a-half year spell where she scored 45 goals in all competitions for the French side. And England striker Duggan believes the lure of Champions League football will help City attract more players of Asllanis calibre in the future.Shes really good and Ive loved linking up with her in pre-season, Duggan told Sky Sports News HQ.Its sometimes difficult for new players but she seems to have settled in fine. Shes that type of character and Im sure shell attract the crowds as well because of her flair, her pace and her style of play, and she can also score great goals. Duggan hopes City can continue playing attractive football Every top player wants to play in the Champions League and bringing players like Asllani and Jane Ross to the club adds to the group that we have and will help us keep progressing as a teamHopefully she can do a job for us.City Women moved into the state-of the-art Academy Stadium - located on the Etihad Campus - last season, a week after the ground played host to England Womens friendly against China.

City have almost doubled season ticket sales for next season I think part of the success is people have been attracted to our football. People want to come along and watch a good game of football and thats what we have given themIn the past two years of the WSL its gone down to the last day which also adds to the excitement and long may that continue.I think the city of Manchester has been crying out for a womens team and I think they have really got behind us in the last two seasons.The support has been incredible and its nice that I could come along and give some of our loyal fans a season ticket for the rest of the season. Hopefully they enjoy it and hopefully we can put in the performances that keep attracting the crowds, because its been brilliant.

PETERSBURG, Fla.ROME -- Mario Balotelli has expressed astonishment at the reaction to an argument he had with some Italian football pundits after a game on Friday. Following AC Milans 2-0 loss to Roma, Balotelli had a tense exchange with the Sky Italia TV studio hosts. Balotelli said: "When Milan wins Mario is great, when it loses Mario is bad." Told by one studio host that he doesnt move enough on the pitch, Balotelli responded: "You dont know anything about football. Trust me." His comments provoked plenty of reaction both supportive and critical, and Balotelli responded on Twitter around 4 a.m. local time on Saturday morning, saying in Italian: "Mamma mia I divide Italy in 2! Wow! While nearly everyone abroad is united with me!" Then he added in English: "What a strange game." Balotelli, whose career had been littered with controversies and clashes with both coaches and teammates, was largely ineffective against Roma and he was substituted in the 69th minute. As Balotelli walked off, he appeared to question coach Clarence Seedorfs decision to remove him. "I didnt understand my substitution," Balotelli said in the interview. Told that he doesnt criticize himsself enough, Balotelli said "Im a very normal player. Custom Phoenix Suns Jerseys. Its you who says Im a standout." Balotelli is having a strong season and set a personal record last week with his 14th goal of the campaign. "I chose to take off Balotelli, but when he came off he didnt say anything special to me," Seedorf said. "We shouldnt always analyze every detail, when there is something negative to say about Balo, you are always ready. There are things said and done in the heat of the moment, but then its talked about and resolved. "Hes coming off the back of many positive weeks, both with goals and with his behaviour." Balotelli has a history of being in the headlines as much for his antics off the pitch as his talent on it. He made light of his troubles in 2011 when he was with Manchester City by unveiling a T-shirt with the slogan "Why Always Me?" during a 6-1 rout of Manchester United in a Premier League derby. That came after reports that a fire had broken out at his house when fireworks were let off in his bathroom. Balotelli escaped punishment earlier in 2011 after throwing a dart at a City youth-team player. No one was hurt in the incident.
