While Ibra was a bit too brazen about the interview questions, it makes sense why he feels a certain way about Balo wasting his potential.

He knew he could really succeed at the highest level and unfortunately didn't beyond a certain point. When you've been a mentor to someone you can relate to that feeling and I think Ibra was that for Balo.

Balo is a little sensitive to the obvious truth pointed out here and is reacting.

i think Ibra was projecting onto Balotelli because Ibra himself couldn't get passed a league win his career and could never perform in knockout stages.

he's probably mad that he he and his mentee are failures in a sense.
