Former Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard has labeled his former teammate, Balotelli a spectacular waste of talent.
Balotelli spent the 2014-15 campaign at Anfield, starting only 10 EPL matches before he was sent back to AC Milan on loan.
Gerrard, who is currently writing his autobiography which is being serialized in The Daily Mail, revealed he had problems with Balotelli on his first day in training.
He said: “I had seen a staggering number of new signings walk into the Liverpool training ground.
“I watched every single one of their first training sessions with close attention, wondering whether we’d bought a star or another dud, a king or a prat, a Xabi Alonso or an El Hadji Diouf, a Luis Suarez or a Mario Balotelli.
