Mario Balotelli has had his signature analysed upon his return to Italy

Poor ol' Mario Balotelli can't do anything without it being scrutinised.

The former Liverpool forward isn't even able to sign his name without something being read into it. Balotelli, who sealed a loan move back to AC Milan this week, has had his signature analysed by Italian handwriting experts and the results aren't really surprising.

"The B [is] very large and paunchy to the point that it contains all the rest of the surname. It puts in evidence a dichotomy in his personality.

"On one hand, he wants to be noticed and to make it happen he exaggerates his transgressive behaviors, but on the other hand he protects himself inside a shell like he would like to come back in the womb."

The analysis was revealed by Italian sports website Sportmediaset and while we were more than a little aware of his attention-seeking ways but who knew he wanted to get back in the womb? Brendan Rodgers doesn't come across as the most motherly manager in the world so it's no wonder they didn't get along. H/t to RowZed
