He deservedly got a roasting for this

You can give out all you want but Paul Merson never disappoints on Soccer Saturday.

The former Arsenal man is guaranteed every single week to do or say something so ridiculous that you’ll rewind the telly, or else you’ll be scouring Youtube that night to find it.

Relax,you don’t have to do all that,because we’ve got you covered for the latest in a long line of gaffes to emerge from the mouth of the ex-England international.

Sunderland’s win over Everton today in the early Premier League kick-off meant it was an anxious day for some of the sides treading water at the bottom of the table.

‘Merse decided that the 2-0 win for Dick Advocaat’s side was so huge that it needed a simple expression to explain to us folk at home what it might mean for the other teams looking at Championship football next season

So simple in fact that he made a total balls of it and the panel just loved it.

We’re glad there is a place in society for someone so innocent as ‘Merse and long may it continue.
