When Liverpool signed Mario Balotelli this summer they knew they were not just purchasing a footballer - they were getting the circus that comes with him.
Throughout his fledgling career the 24 year-old striker has found himself at the centre of shenanigans involving fireworks, pet pigs, go karting, silly hats and more.
But perhaps no item will be more synonymous with 'the Balotelli show' than the humble training bib.
It all goes back to November 2011 when the, then Manchester City striker, toiled and failed to put on the simple item.
Despite the assistance of a member of the City backroom staff the Italian was simply unable to put on - not one - but two - training bibs, eventually hurling them away in anger.
The moment became a viral video classic and cemented his status as one of the world's barmiest players.
