Liverpool legend Carragher no fan of Balotelli

Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher has slammed Mario Balotelli after their Champions League defeat at FC Basel.

Carragher took aim at the Italian before kickoff.

"I think we need to see a lot more. I can't hide the way I feel about him.

"When he was at (Manchester) City I wasn't a fan. He's got one goal (so far this campaign).

"He's away in Europe tonight (against Basle) and playing as a lone striker. You have got to sacrifice yourself for the team tonight - play for the team and work hard.

"If there's one word that I'd never use to sum Balotelli up is sacrifice."
