Former Manchester City and Liverpool striker Mario Balotelli has named the "worst" coach he's played for.
The 33-year-old has been at a number of clubs during his professional career, including Serie A giants Inter Milan and AC Milan.

Balotelli is now plying trade in the Turkish Super Lig with Adana Demirspor, where he has three goals in five appearances this season.
However, the Italian striker has opened up about his experience under Brendan Rodgers during his time at Liverpool.
"Brendan Rodgers is the worst coach I have ever had. " Balotelli told TVPlay.
"He was number one as far as training sessions were concerned, what with keeping possession of the ball and the small-sided games. But as a person he was a disaster."
Rodgers has also admitted previously that he found it tough work with the former Man City striker.
"In all fairness, I just found it very difficult to connect with Mario. On the field, he tried his best," Rodgers told talkSPORT.
"But it certainly wasn't something that worked out as everyone would like. If he could ever match that intensity with his talent, then he'd be one of the best players in the world."
Balotelli only racked 28 appearances for the Reds while only bagging four goals, before he left Anfield to join Milan in 2016.
