Ha ha I was just about to post the text for that vid. He's a right prick but I liked what he said this time :
Merson said: “No excuses. I know they had a hard game on Saturday, of course they did, but if you’re going to win the Champions League, that’s the nature of it.
“In Premier League football you play on Saturday or Sunday and then you play on Wednesday. That’s the way it is and the way it has been for the last how many years. I thought they were well off the pace.
“I wouldn’t say it was the defensive absentees because it wasn’t their fault in my opinion. They were left exposed with no protection. I don’t care if you’re Maldini, one of the best ever, if people run at you left, right and centre it’s going to be very hard to defend. I don’t make any excuse for that.
“They’ve probably got about 11 midfield players at Arsenal and they’re all roughly about the same. There’s nothing really different. You can reel them off: Oxlade-Chamberlain, Walcott, Ramsey, Wilshere, Arteta, Rosicky, Cazorla, Ozil… they are all players that are exactly the same.”
