Mario Balotelli has claimed that Brendan Rodgers's tactics at Liverpool failed to bring out the best in him.
The Italy striker has completed a season-long loan switch back to AC Milan, just a year after the Reds paid £16m to the Rossoneri for him.
Balotelli has conceded that he too must take some responsibility for his troubles at Anfield.
"I accept my side of the blame, but Rodgers's tactics were not suited to my characteristics either," he told La Gazzetta dello Sport.
"At the start, I missed a few easy chances, and then I had fewer chances to score, a bit of bad luck and injuries. It was a mess.
"But I never protested. I accepted the coach's decisions and always behaved professionally. My attitude and lifestyle were absolutely normal at Liverpool. There have not been any problems with my private life this last year."
Balotelli scored four goals in 28 appearances for Liverpool last season.
