Man City striker Balotelli: Mancini better for me than Mourinho

Manchester City striker Mario Balotelli says he's happier under Roberto Mancini than Jose Mourinho.

Balotelli played for Real Madrid coach Mourinho while they were together at Inter Milan.

"Mourinho? Among the best," he told Italian magazine L'Uomo Vogue.

"On a personal level I would say Mancini and then Mourinho.

"A coach has to bring 100% out of a player and Mancini is brilliant at doing just that."
