This Might Be Mario Balotelli's Greatest Moment Of On-Pitch Madness!!

For the life of me I do not understand why Balotelli felt it necessary to exchange his shirt with Pepe as he walked into the tunnel at half time. What was he thinking when he committed that atrocity two days ago? At home at Anfield for that matter! I mean, the Liverpool striker was having an utterly poor game so why aggravate the manager, his teammates, the club fans and his personal fans - believe me such people exist - with such an inconsiderate act? Will we ever see an end to his special brand of madness? Couldn't he have waited a few seconds more to get his idol's shirt in the privacy of the tunnel? This talented young man better find his head and focus on his game. He has what it takes to be a legendary striker if he puts his mind to it.

At least, Captain Steven Gerrard led by example and showed errant Balo how to go about the whole shirt swapping business. There is a time and place for everything.
