Yep, not like for like.

I mean, never mind senior friendly internationals, McClean had been called up by NI for a senior NI competitive international - AND ACCEPTED - before his transfer to Sunderland came through and Niall Quinn had a word. Nor did McClean need the FAI to get an Irish passport for him like Declan. No, that was the IFA who arranged it. Of course, it would have been a British passport, only there wasn't time due to a UK Bank Holiday intervening, which necessitated an application to Dublin, where there wasn't a Bank Holiday. And when Rice went on his first foreign trip with the FAI, I doubt they had to buy him a shirt and pair of trousers for the official post-match meal provided by the hosts, on account of his only packing trackkie bottoms and sports gear for the trip like you-know-who. So yes, not like-for-like at all.

'Forget the past' .....he played in the 'youth' set up .....well he quickly forgot the past

There's an attempt to rewrite history here by the England camp. No doubt at the instruction of whichever PR company they have working for them. Southgate, and now Rice, have both recently referred to the fact that Rice played for us at underage level, while omitting the fact that he played for us at senior level. The inference of this is that he played for us at underage level ONLY. This is not an accident. This is an attempt to rewrite the player's history.
