Paul Merson has called Carroll a coward for not taking a penalty against Italy. âItâs an absolute disgrace that he didnât take a penalty for England. He cost £35m â itâs his job to score goals.

Hodgson probably picked his first 5 takers on the training ground before the game,but Merson was more than likely to drunk to think of that.
âEven if Roy Hodgson had him down to take the sixth penalty, thatâs not an excuse. Itâs not good enough" Ok it's not an excuse if he wasn't chosen by the manager. I take it he should have stolen the ball from Cole and taken Engerland to Euro glory!!!! What a ****! Merson is.
Somebody call AA he's obviously off the wagon again. Only a complete moron would equate a transfer fee with the ability to take a penalty. Can you imagine if after the same result the England manager came out to the post match press conference & and stated he'd selected his penalty takers on a descending scale according to their transfer fee? This is why Merson is on sky. They meet their HR quota. Just don't let him drive or operate machinery.
He did coach in Italy with inter milan in his established 30 years of coaching. Btw, what the **** is up with his rooster neck? That thing is massive! haha
