Glen dishes it back to Merson

[RafaShanks]

Glen responding to Merson slating him on Soccer Saturday today, who basically called him a waste of space:

He was average at the best of times, the only reason he's on that show is coz he gambled all his money away. The clown!

 

Comments from alcoholic drug abusers are not really gonna upset me and who is Paul Merson to jugde players, he was average at the best of times.

Best defending he's done this year

 

 

...seriously, hope he starts to look like the player he was when he joined now!

Fair play Johnson, about time someone called this boys out.

 

But I hope his lifts his game to ram mersons comments down his throat.

[Gravy]

He's spot on with his response - no need to bring up his addictions though, that's got nothing to do with the issue.

in a sense, i know what you mean about the addictions. On the other hand, if that idiot wants to put his obviously bulls*** opinions out there then he's going to have to stand up to some analysis himself. Fair play to GJ, my estimation of him has went up a bit.

 

edit: i'm also pretty sure I had now reached the massive total of 18 posts - where have they gone? 11? I'm way more vocal than that.

Can't see it. Has it been deleted?

[sean]

I'd not give the idiot the press he's going to get over this. He's one of a host of shocking football pundits doing the rounds these days.

Looks like it. Wish I'd done a screen grab.

[drdooom]

It's fine if he wants to dish something out but the addiction stuff is below the belt.

[RP]

Johnson has said nothing that's not true - no issues with it at all myself.

 

About time some of our players showed some f***ing b***ocks.

[jimbolala]

Get the rest of them to join in and slag that tramp gray off as well. Line them up and shoot from the hip. Nicolas could be next

which is what Merson deserves

[Eiler99]

Well in, Glen.

[Knoxy]

Good work

 

F**k off Merson

 

F**k off Purslow

 

F**k of Hodgson

 

We've got our club back

[Spike]

f*** merson, the addict sympathy is part of the reason he got the gig on sky. It sure as hell wasn't football related.

 

f*** him and the horse he jacked in on

Couldnt agree more. Well done Glenn. I wouldnt take crap from someone like Merson and would have reacted the same. So can only support him here.

When has Johnson showed b******s on the pitch ?

[slapnuts]

are you wanting a picture?

 

Good on Glen I say, maybe dopey Merson will think before he starts spouting off next time.

 

The clown!

[Cobs]

Well in GJ

Why? He's had a go at Glen for lacking commitment and focus. Do you think Merson was fully focused on his football when he was drunk, snorting coke and gambling away his wages? He certainly wasn't committed to it was he?

 

He's a c**k, and what's worse is he's a f**king dreadful pundit, the idea that he was putting forward was that Hodgson lost his job because of individual errors in the blackburn match shows no concept of understanding that defending is done as a unit.

Merson really is an abysmal human being.

 

Noel Gallagher was - for some reason - interviewed on the programme a while back and even he was taking the piss out of Merson and how useless he is.

"You can't blame anyone when you concede zonal marking, but you know exactly whom to blame when it's man marking."

 

I still can't believe they said that (or words to that effect) - on TV. For everyone to hear.

Andy Gray says it all the time. It's the sole reason he puts forward for his case.

 

Like it makes any difference.
