Merson, fine player though he was, has had serious issues with addiction. It's understandable that he might have felt that he had enough to contend with. Maybe man who loses £7m to his addiction needs to continue to earn his living. However, Le Tissier is an intelligent and highly articulate man who appears to be more financially solvent. It's highly commendable that he spoke from the heart in-spite of the consequences, namely getting sacked by Sky Sports. Merson might not be best-placed to object to living in an Orwellian dystopia. But Le Tissier clearly did not feel comfortable with what was going on in the world at the height of the Covid-19 lockdown hysteria.

It's nothing to do with brightness Merson, it's moral conviction.

[@Slim_45]

Agree with Merson, it’s better to keep your head down and just agree. A lady from my workplace who was incorrectly assigned a penis at birth suffered her first period pains at the age of 48. Someone suggested she should rub her adams apple and ball sack at the same time to relieve the pain. He was sacked. I just put my head down and agreed with the lady and managements decision. As there are some biological facts beyond my understanding. No point being clever!👍🏽

[@SteelyDavey]

Le Tissier was a better player. I think he would have suited Serie A because skill was valued more than English football at the time.

[@deanslife1]

He was better and I was surprised by Merse's comment of levels, because he played for a bigger club doesn't equate to he was also a better player than anyone not at a big club

Forget the rest of what Paul Merson said about Matt but when asked who was better then it made me want to write this specially when casually saying we played at different standards Merson was decent with his one good foot never great but decent but Matt Le Tissier was different gravy he could do things on the ball only Paul Merson could dream about and him saying he’s honest is bull because he should of said Matt is a better player and a better pundit.
