Mario Balotelli has admitted there were many reasons for printing 'Why Always Me?' on his hidden shirt and revealing it after scoring against Manchester United on Sunday.
The Italian striker has been among the headlines for all sorts of reasons since he joined City but thanked 'Chappy', Manchester City's kit man Les Chapman who during his playing career made over 700 appearances in the Football League, for organising the printing.
'I did it for many reasons,' said Balotelli. 'But I’ll leave it for other people to figure out what it means. I’m sure people can work it out.
'Chappy, our kit man did it for me, I told him the words and he printed them. He is a good guy Chappy, one of the best.'
Chappy has legendary status among City's players and the former Oldham and Preston player may have to deal with a few more requests after Balotelli's stunt was so well received by City and neutral fans alike.
Asked whether he would have another slogan waiting to be sent off for press Balotelli said: 'No, because otherwise I’ll get booked every week, so it was a one-off for United.'
