MADCAP Mario Balotelli has been involved in another training-ground bust-up, this time with Micah Richards.
The pair had to be pulled apart during a practice match at the end of Manchester City's training yesterday — despite being on the same side.
Richards complained the Italian striker was not trying hard enough, before Balotelli criticised a pass by the right-back. The pair then went for each other.
Our pictures show Richards, 23, being held back by James Milner and Yaya Toure, while Vincent Kompany calms down Balotelli, 21.
Boss Roberto Mancini then told Balotelli to apologise to Richards, which he did.
Balotelli is no stranger to training-ground bust-ups at City's Carrington base.
Last December he tussled with former City defender Jerome Boateng after taking exception to a tackle from the now Bayern Munich player.
In April he clashed with Kompany after again being angered by a challenge.
Then in August Balo and Aleksandar Kolarov squared up to each other, too.
He also caused a melee at the end of City's FA Cup semi-final victory over Manchester United when he angered Rio Ferdinand.
Last night Richards played down the incident and insisted the two had buried the hatchet.
Richards wrote on his Twitter account: "Me and Mario are all good. These things happen in training and we shook hands after. It shows passion."
