I don't remember people castigating Gazza for his antics when on England duties, it was always "what a great guy to have around the squad".
The difference being Mario hasn't yet earnt the right to be the clown,even though he often acts it,he first needs to learn to be a team player and consistent with his performances - when he does perform to that level he can fuck about all he wants for me.
And when did gazza earn the right to be a dick? was it after his 1st 2nd, 3rd or 4th championship medal? oh hang on.....
