MC Prussian Posted 2 December 2019 Share Posted 2 December 2019 When you see Swiss national television covering LCFC on the sports page (albeit just with a mainly text-based report), you know you've made it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koke Posted 3 December 2019 Share Posted 3 December 2019 So Merson thinks we are up against it which is fair enough, theres a 8 point gap after all. But why does he struggle to communicate properly? He can barely find words to describe what he thinks. He's probably the most incoherent man in football media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'I'm not sure what quality they could bring in' Umm...managed to get Youri Tielemans last window, have heard hes okay. Has Merson even heard of Dennis Praet?

I assume that by the end of December, he will have seen our squad depth ...... although if we have to play Wes at CB and Kelechi at CF against Liverpool due to injuries he may feel vindicated .......

CosbehFox Posted 3 December 2019 Author Share Posted 3 December 2019 (edited) Merson is employed because it’s all about trying to connect with ‘the normal man’ And it largely works Edited 3 December 2019 by Cardiff_Fox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're all bitter in some way. One of the consistently funniest things on this forum is the absloute slaughtering, by some, of other clubs fans thoughts on social media, "what melts", "what embarrsassments", "how deluded" etc...when its exactly the same on here..........who woulda guessed eh! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARTY_FOX Posted 3 December 2019 Share Posted 3 December 2019 Merson is capable of talking good stuff, he plays a character. Unfortunately that's the way alot of pundits go. Sutton though, is just a bellend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yes Posted 3 December 2019 Share Posted 3 December 2019 What’s Mersons problem with us all of the sudden? He always seemed quite positive about us before, surely it’s not just the Rodgers speculation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh no, I enjoy it, it's funny but it's funny because he is just an argumentative bellend. Look at his weekly dig at us when talking to savage. As soon as savage started talking us down abit he jumped to our defence because he just has to be different and controversial in his head. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was complimentary the great escape season saying we were gonna stay up when everyone else said we were gunners. Season after it was how we cant do it because we're leicester. Being leicester city meant we couldn't. He said it right up until it was confirmed even when his colleagues started to believe. But the team rooted at the bottom was gonna do it. There was something about them. Despite his colleagues differing opinion. He just goes on the 'inoffensive' opposite to the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hahahaha...exactly. To be honest though, some of the pundits are so vacuous and/or cliched its quite refreshing. People just dont like it when its directed against them. Being just a slight cynic, I always wonder whether his pro Celtic\anti Brendan rants are driven by personal revenue considerations, or whether he, like most of us, just keeps digging even though he knows its the wrong hole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
