Oops just noticed that this has been posted on another thread.. can you pull it Mods? Guilty as charged!!
and as far as the alcoholic Merson? we tried it with British managers. didnt get anywhere............... well we did...... we got relegated.
When we are relegated: "Well Jeff, I told you, taking on a foreign manager with no experience of the PL, and not a word of English - what a joke and there was an inevitability about it." "Wouldn't you agree Phil?" "Completely, Merse, the thing is Jeff, it was naive, it was suicidal, I cannot imagine how the fans and players must have felt - talk about creating a 19 team league on January 5th last, and the thing is Jeff, even the dogs on the street new the outcome. I mean Jeff, there you were, defending his record with Panathanaikos, or whoever it was and we was telling you what was going to happen. Shocking appointment and I tell you who I really feel sorry for Jeff, Mike Phelan and the genuine Hull City supporters. They deserved better.. When we are not relegated: "All I can say Jeff is that the league this year was a shocker - the bottom third was at best league one level if truth be told. I could have managed all of the relegated teams better myself. Its not a case of Hull having better tactics with the appointment of that Marco geezer, it was more to do with the decline in football standards at the base of the PL, which is truly worrying considering how the Chinese is waving money at so many PL players" "Wouldn't you agree Phil?" "Completely, Merse, the thing is Jeff, something has to be done about the PL. Its very imbalanced in terms of standards. and Hull can consider themselves very very lucky to have stayed up by their finger nails. Any other year Jeff and we wouldn't be having this conversation. I guarantee Jeff that Hull will be bottom next year simply because Silva has been found out, his limitations are evident Jeff compared to British managers who really know the English game. A Portuguese Man O War without a sting Jeff is just another jellyfish."
That was truly pathetic, disgusting television. I genuinely can only think Sky keep them employed for viral videos and shock jock style tactics, because at best they are a pair of brain dead imbeciles, and at worst xenophobic and red necked.
Was this the same MERSON who was sacked by Walsall in League 1 (third division in old money) and the same guy who drunk himself stupid. I'll drink to that Paul, shame you can't
Just when you think he can't be more of a ****... https://www.joe.co.uk/sport/paul-me...ly-stupid-comment-about-thierry-henry/106391
"I could win the league with Olympiacos" Paul Merson, ladies and gentlemen, the man with a 34% win rate as a manager, at the lofty heights of League One...
No question as to the identity of the biggest dunce in football this weekend: Paul Merson... http://www.telegraph.co.uk/football...hompson-foreign-managers-should-sky-football/
