What are you up to Mario? Liverpool star Balotelli drops his shorts in training
Posted Thursday, September 11, 2014 by Dailystar.co.uk
MARIO BALOTELLI has rarely been known as one to 'turn the other cheek'.
The controversial Italian striker has been in trouble with referees countless times during his career to date.
But he appears to have opted for a new approach, after pictures emerged from Liverpool's training session today of the ex-Manchester City man dropping his shorts and exposing his buttocks.
BUM DEAL: Balotelli will be hoping to net his first Reds goal against Villa on Saturday
Quite what the 24-year-old was up to is unclear.
However, he'll certainly want to pull down the pants of Aston Villa's defenders on Saturday when he makes his Anfield debut for the Reds.
Balotelli featured from the start in Liverpool's 3-0 rout of Tottenham last time out following his £16m move from AC Milan.
The Italy ace caught the eye with a mature and composed display before being substituted on the hour mark.
Brendan Rodgers will be hoping for more of the same from his new star striker as the Reds embark on a busy month of action.
After Saturday's visit of Villa, the Kop giants host Bulgarian minnows Ludogorets in the Champions League on Tuesday night.
A trip to West Ham follows four days later before a League Cup tie against Championship outfit Middlesbrough at Anfield on September 23.
They end the month with a Merseyside derby clash with Everton.
