Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers has finally admitted that Balotelli doesn't fit into Liverpool's style of play.The 24-year-old has scored just two goals in all competitions since joining from AC Milan for £16million in August, and Rodgers' latest admission throws the Italian's future into further doubt. Read what he said below
"I think we've seen that it's not really his game (the 3-4-3 system).Having worked with Mario during the time he's been here, we've seen that he's a player who is better in and around the box, so that level of intensity and pressing isn't a part of his game.But you try to get the best out of the players that you have, and the qualities that they have, so that's something that we'll focus on.The most important thing is that he's now available after his ban. That adds another player to our squad, especially with Fabio Borini not being available because of suspension,"Rodgers said.Balotelli is available for his side's trip to Turf Moor on Friday, having served his suspension and recovered from a groin problem.
