Video: Liverpool fan in denial tries to prove that Mario Balotelli is a real grafter

Leave all your preconceived notions at the door.

Neil Treacy

Most people have long accepted that Mario Balotelli’s laissez faire approach to the game isn’t really suiting Liverpool’s high-tempo style, but this Reds’ fan seems to think differently.

He’s channeled his inner David Caruso, while harnessing Jim Corr’s conspiracy spotting powers to completely debunk the myth that Balotelli is lazy and only scoring penalties, by putting together this four minute video of cold, hard, evidence.

Not only has the fan found footage of the apparently lazy striker running (and at times, even sprinting), but he’s also managed to locate previously unseen footage of Balotelli scoring goals from play.

Our minds are blown…
