Have a feeling this might be Mersons " You win nothing with kids" moment.
At least the kids comment is understandable because young players tend to be inconsistent and that often counts a lot. Merson just decided to be against him because he's foreign, there's no reasonable thought process.Have a feeling this might be Mersons " You win nothing with kids" moment.
You sure that powder is egg?Egg on his face now.
Made a good point about Mings today too.
What did he say, bud?
What were his reasons?Just said he wouldn’t leave Liverpool for Bayern Munich (talking about Klopp) I kid you not.

Actual quote.

Bayern an aging team, million miles off winning the champions league, no glory winning the bundesliga. Whoop de doo Jeff!What were his reasons?
Article on Merson in the Telegraph.
I'm going for five central defenders to provide a number of options for the back three. People would say Dier could drop back into that position but, for this formation [3-5-2] to work, you need three out-and-out centre-halves.
My first three picks pick themselves, but my fourth will surprise a few. Mark my words, we will not pass a team off the pitch at the World Cup so we need someone who provides a different option, and that's where Carroll comes in. If we're chasing the game we can pump the ball up to Carroll and there will be drama, trust me.
He made some insanely stupid comments the other day when talking about his preferred England squad for the World Cup.
Paul Merson somehow seems to have missed the part where one of the key strengths of playing three in the back is that it allows a team to have a libero who isn't an "out-and-out centre-half". He then selects only three specialist central midfielders in his entire squad, one of whom is Jack Wilshere.
He's like a parody of backwards thinking British football men.

I'm from Maesteg. Some of my current Sunday league team mates play for Caerau at the moment.Hahahahaha, Caerau FC was my team I played for as a kid/teenager!! Madness!
My favourite part:
"Harry came in at half-time and took three men off, put three at the back, five in midfield with three rolling attackers and we won 3-2.
"That's when I knew he was a great manager."
A 3-5-3 formation? It takes a great manager to play with 12 men and nobody notices.
