VIDEO: Mario Balotelli pulled off two outrageous bits of skill in Liverpool training yesterday

Who doesn't love a bicycle kick?

The degree to which Mario Balotelli is struggling at Liverpool would suggest that football may not be his game.

All he needs is for head tennis to become a professional sport where the players are offered €140,000 a week contracts and he’ll be laughing.

The Italian is absolutely amazing at the game and, during Liverpool’s training session yesterday, he broke out a stunning overhead kick to accompany the pass off his back to prove that he looks to have recovered from the mystery illness that ruled him out of the Reds last two games.

If Brendan Rodgers can convince Balotelli that Premier League matches are training games and the goals will start flying in.
