AC Milan coaches unsurprised by Balotelli Liverpool problems

AC Milan coach staff aren't surprised by Mario Balotelli's struggles at Liverpool. The striker left Milan in August for the Reds, but has found himself on the outer of manager Brendan Rodgers' first team plans.

"He did not feel like working, or running, or being part the group. He is rude and then cries and becomes the victim," an unnamed Milan staff member told El Pais.

When Balotelli was sold, there was a split amongst the Milan coaching staff.

"The bet, and it seems that we are winning, was this: he will no longer do anything anywhere," added the source.
