Skrtel: Liverpool players right behind Balotelli

Martin Skrtel says Liverpool's players are right behind Mario Balotelli.

The Italian striker is yet to score in the Premier League.

Skrtel said: "Maybe there was a bit of frustration for Mario because he couldn't take the chances he had. But we are all supporting him and we believe in him because we know he's a great player. We know he will start scoring goals and help the team.

We don't need to talk of his qualities because he is a great player and a nice lad. He works so hard in training every day and is very difficult to play against. It's only a question of time before he shows his best."
