Balotelli hits back at Carragher: 'Who cares' about opinion of a 'bad player'
Mario Balotelli only concerns himself with the opinions of quality players, and former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher apparently doesn't fit that description.
The Italian striker, who left Anfield for French side Nice on transfer deadline day after enduring a miserable spell with the Reds, was castigated by Carragher and Stan Collymore in the aftermath of the move.

The former quipped that the free transfer was still an overpay by Nice, while the latter said the 26-year-old should retire instead of trying to revive his career.
Saturday, Balotelli hit back on Twitter:
