VIDEO: Mario Balotelli tells critics to 'shut up'

Mario Balotelli is fed up.

A day after his cryptic post warning doubters of his imminent return following his exclusion from Liverpool's match against Swansea City, the disgruntled Italian striker took to Instagram again to vent his frustration towards critics.

In a video, he asks a series of questions, presumably aimed at the British media, and ends the clip with an emphatic message: "Shut up!"

For those with an easy judge without knowing s*** about others. Good night?. #idowhatiwant-remember!

His second go-around in England has been bitterly disappointing since signing with the Merseyside club in the summer.

Balotelli has struggled to find a spot in the starting squad for much of the season, with Daniel Sturridge's return from injury further limiting opportunities. He'll hope to add to his four goals Sunday during Liverpool's crucial match against Manchester United.
