Inter Milan president Moratti: Mourinho right on Balotelli axe

Inter Milan president Massimo Moratti supports coach Jose Mourinho over his axing of Mario Balotelli for last night's win at Chelsea.

Balotelli was frozen out this week and Moratti admitted initially he was confused by the row, but has changed his mind.

Moratti said: "Mourinho made the right decision, so it means someone else did not do the right thing for the club.

"As I consider Balotelli to be a player of immense talent, I trust he will now prove he is a great professional and Mourinho will be very happy to field him again."
