Marseille striker Jordan Ayew has defended his reputation and says that he is not a mischief-maker like AC Milan striker Mario Balotelli.
The 21-year-old was recently criticised by Marseille assistant coach Franck Passi for an altercation with Paris Saint-Germain midfielder David Beckham last week.
"My dad (Abedi Pele) is the first one to ask me not to stir things up," he told L'Equipe. "But he was a footballer, he knows what happens on the pitch.
"I think it's a bit too much. In Paris, because it was Beckham, the affair took on impossible proportions. If it had been [PSG's Clement] Chantome or whoever else, it wouldn't have been talked about.
"It pisses me off. People take the mickey. What do I honestly do? Not half of what Balotelli does, for example. In reality, I do nothing. Now, I'm going to shut up, you'll see, to the end of the season."
Ayew has been at Marseille since 2006.
