He didn’t tell the truth he told his opinion , which is not fact just because you agree with something don’t make it truth without hard facts and evidence

@iangascoigne8231 he never really comes across as bitter when he discusses it (in my opinion, at least). He comes across as a bit puzzled as to why posting some 'unpopular' but not particularly offensive opinions on twitter was deemed so much worse than literally spitting at a child.

He's on the edge of addiction and sky keep him purely and simply to protect themselves against blame. If he got the sack he would end up the washed up gambling drunk he once was. Sky don't want that on their conscience
"I keep my head down" roughly translated, I'll say exactly what Sky tell me to say (" I'm not the brightest") True. I'll take what ever they pay me. Matt Le Tissier a true man of conviction. Legend.

You are a clown. Black people, white people, brown people all of them and many others pay for sky. Why the heck would they want to alienate they paying customers? I have been a paying customer for over 20 years, sad as it might be I too have a voice. I don't need politics with my sports that is unavoidable at times but what is not unavoidable are conspiracy theories.
He had warnings and I’m smart enough to know when not to be smart. In other words I’m a coward and will always put my job before doing what’s right when all those footballers around the world were dropping down dead…but hey, I’m still getting paid so they didn’t die for nothing.
@@iangascoigne8231the suddenly dying thing has gone awfully quiet hasn't it? They've probably moved on to '15 minute cities' or something else they understand nothing about. Furthermore, every study on possibly suspicious deaths after the astra-zeneca vaccine showed the overwhelming majority occurred in women, who I'm sure don't count as footballers in these guy's eyes anyway.
Matt represents about 1% of the population, the tiny minority that have principles, and know right from wrong. Paul is everyone else…..neither good, nor bad, but rather easily led and malleable….its the story of humanity….
So the short story is if you're working class and want to keep your job with media corporations, be uneducated, illiterate, don't use words of more than two syllables, keep your head down and don't get ideas above your station. Ensure your conversation stays within the realms of harmless 'banter' and allow your articulate middle media studies graduate hosts and your employer's 'enlightened' staff half your age to guide you through the 'rules' and condescend to their perception and expectation of your limited intellectual capacity and vocabulary.
Merton.....No your not the Brightest...as the old Northern Souls song goes.. You know where your interest lies. La Tissier...a man of courage, and integrity....
Matt made choices based on his ethics and principles which cost him his job, the people who should hold their head in shame and be accountable are the 'no face' bosses and box tickers at sky. While I have no axe to grind with Merse, he comes across as somebody who would pretty much struggle to form valid argument or opinion on pretty much any topic other than football and so would blindly 'tow the party line' for sky. That's exactly the sort of pundit that they want, just look at the level of intelligentsia on the soccer Saturday panel now...! Matt can sleep easy at night and look in the mirror in the morning knowing he was a great player and great pundit who neither compromised his playing style or principles.
Both people made their choices no problem in that Merson clearly didn't have a problem with wearing the badge which I'm not surprised being an arsenal man.
I remember back in the day when Merson would come into our local pub ( the crown, which was later called the mousetrap) to pick up his special delivery packages.
What a courageous man and not in fear of repercussions or motivated by money.that allows him the freedom to speak the truth.and to answer his question its easier to play when your playing alongside better players simple as that
We live in a world now where being an ex alcoholic, drug addict and gambling addict who's willing to keep his mouth shut and views to himself keeps his job over a bloke who is none of the above and challenges the state of this world and speaks the truth. Funny old world hey
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. If freedom of speech means anything at all then it surely grants us the right to say that which others (especially the powers-that-be) do not wish to hear.
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
Matt is a honest bloke, shame the others didn’t stand by him. We talk about this country have free speech that’s rubbish. We have become too politically correct and can’t have our own opinions . Real shame

Digital Expression: With the advent of the internet and social media, freedom of expression has expanded to include online platforms. People can express themselves, share information, and engage in discussions on various digital platforms
Merson is a man who left school, straight into Football. Then straight into Football commentary. He's never had to think about anything and still thinks of the world as if he's in school. The only difference to most school children is he doesn't have the angst and the want to break free because he's past puberty long ago and is given everything he wants (money, fame). But he's never moved on mentally. He still sees where he works as a place where him and his "colleagues" are subservient children without any responsibility other than to do what they're told. He basically acts like a chronologically old child.

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.
@@Shads5not necessarily, he obviously felt strongly about his opinions, sometimes people do things for the greater good wether they're stupid or smart...
It is great that two people can have different opinions. I wish Le Tiss was talking more about football, but respect he decided to walk down another street. Not the end of the world. Life goes on.
Merson you are not that bright. Just thinking about your own personal life and not the bigger picture. Matt saw something taking place which was obs wrong and had to say something. He is in the right.
Sometimes just being concerned with your personal life and not getting bogged down with the ‘bigger picture’ is the best way to be. The trouble with 24 hours news and social media is being deluded into a sense of having to be concerned with everything that’s going on even when you have zero ability to change it. Ignorance can indeed be bliss.
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!👍🏽
Matt has principles and refused to go along with the Black Lives Matter nonsense and wouldn’t wear their badge, you Paul put money and self interest before your principles, which was a shame

He had warnings and I’m smart enough to know when not to be smart. In other words I’m a coward and will always put my job before doing what’s right when all those footballers around the world were dropping down dead…but hey, I’m still getting paid so they didn’t die for nothing.
How many footballers are there? Footballers have dropped dead before COVID.
@@iangascoigne8231the suddenly dying thing has gone awfully quiet hasn't it?
They've probably moved on to '15 minute cities' or something else they understand nothing about.
Furthermore, every study on possibly suspicious deaths after the astra-zeneca vaccine showed the overwhelming majority occurred in women, who I'm sure don't count as footballers in these guy's eyes anyway.
Tweeting nonsense conspiracy theories with no evidence is doing what’s right then????
You are spot on mate!! Most fans of football are brain dead morons, like the 2 other replies on here!!!
@@jacob4690there’s plenty of evidence. Check the excess deaths rates for a start. The media are silent because they’re owned by the globalists
Matt stuck by is principals unlike merson.
Its not about being too "clever", its about honesty and integrity
Matt has morals and told the truth.
Merse is a yes man who puts money above the truth.
But it is not the truth. It always was conspiracy nonsense.
Matt represents about 1% of the population, the tiny minority that have principles, and know right from wrong. Paul is everyone else…..neither good, nor bad, but rather easily led and malleable….its the story of humanity….
Unlike most footballers he didn’t sell his soul to the devil good on Matt a true people person
Hahahaha, a true person wouldn't organise a betting scam!!!
Merson is a shocking pundit
he didn't jump when they said jump that's the difference didn't sell his sole.
Merson a man whose been forgiven for many weaknesses and indiscretions but in those circumstances sold his soul. Merse got many warnings
Only one person cones out of this with respect and its not the money grabber merson. Matt is a legend👏👏
A legend? More like mentally deranged
We all know mers is a yes man … le God … legend… respect ✊
Matt has become a legend speaking out when others coward off!
So the short story is if you're working class and want to keep your job with media corporations, be uneducated, illiterate, don't use words of more than two syllables, keep your head down and don't get ideas above your station. Ensure your conversation stays within the realms of harmless 'banter' and allow your articulate middle media studies graduate hosts and your employer's 'enlightened' staff half your age to guide you through the 'rules' and condescend to their perception and expectation of your limited intellectual capacity and vocabulary.
In short, "Be an obedient worker".
So why did Thompson & Charlie get sacked then
Merse was supposed to be sacked as well but he threatened to kill himself if they went through with it.
@@carter3369 Hope that ain't true
Legend has it that Nicholas is still “sitting there thinking”
@@michaeljohn1978😂😂😂
They wanted to sack Matt because of BLM but couldn't make it obvious, so Charlie and Phil were sacrificed.
Merton.....No your not the Brightest...as the old Northern Souls song goes.. You know where your interest lies.
La Tissier...a man of courage, and integrity....
Matt made choices based on his ethics and principles which cost him his job, the people who should hold their head in shame and be accountable are the 'no face' bosses and box tickers at sky. While I have no axe to grind with Merse, he comes across as somebody who would pretty much struggle to form valid argument or opinion on pretty much any topic other than football and so would blindly 'tow the party line' for sky. That's exactly the sort of pundit that they want, just look at the level of intelligentsia on the soccer Saturday panel now...! Matt can sleep easy at night and look in the mirror in the morning knowing he was a great player and great pundit who neither compromised his playing style or principles.
🎯👏
What a load of bollocks.
@musicman.....In the words of George Carlin, " They want obedient workers'. That's Merson.
Both people made their choices no problem in that Merson clearly didn't have a problem with wearing the badge which I'm not surprised being an arsenal man.
I remember back in the day when Merson would come into our local pub ( the crown, which was later called the mousetrap) to pick up his special delivery packages.
Le Tissier is a legend. You can stick your warning where the sun doesn't shine.
Utterly misleading title
"I will do what im told an tow the line "......is what I heard
So do most people in the workplace
@@colinwhitehouse7547 Not if you have some balls like some of us do, and would just get a job somewhere else
@@craig3613le tiss got reprimanded 6 times. Most people would get written up for 1.
We know why matt left sky sports,weve heard it from the man himself,we dont need the yes man merson to tell us.
What a courageous man and not in fear of repercussions or motivated by money.that allows him the freedom to speak the truth.and to answer his question its easier to play when your playing alongside better players simple as that
We live in a world now where being an ex alcoholic, drug addict and gambling addict who's willing to keep his mouth shut and views to himself keeps his job over a bloke who is none of the above and challenges the state of this world and speaks the truth.
Funny old world hey
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.
If freedom of speech means anything at all then it surely grants us the right to say that which others (especially the powers-that-be) do not wish to hear.
I have very little but if I was offered a million a year to stay silent when I see evil I would tell them to f... off and speak out.
It’s easy to you all to have morals on CZcams when nothing is at stake.
The sheep can remain silent.
There's no need for them to bleat.
matt not a yes man simple!!!says it how it is not been clever merson being honest genuine!
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.
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
He has stayed there that long because he is cheap and will do what ever he is told!!
"Never judge a man until you walk a mile in his shoes" after judging MLT decision to speak the truth regardless of the consiquences ...
It wasn't the truth. Evil conspiracy theorist.
@@Andyferguson-ml4uoWhat makes him an “evil conspiracy theorist” exactly?
He voiced his opinion not the truth..
He's a nut job tin foiler and was warned about it, breach of contract.. Bye bye mlt
Paul Merson “be thick and do as your told”.
Life advice for any aspirational child.
The thing is..matt is brighter than all of them. His head is screwed on!! Fair play to him
Lol
I like Paul mersin but matt did the right thing stood by his principals
I didn’t know matt knew any school headteachers
Matt is a honest bloke, shame the others didn’t stand by him. We talk about this country have free speech that’s rubbish. We have become too politically correct and can’t have our own opinions . Real shame
@@SupervoidCinema Freedom of expression, often considered a fundamental human right, encompasses the liberty to express oneself without censorship or restraint from the government or other authorities. It's a cornerstone of democratic societies and is protected by various international treaties, constitutions, and laws.
Here's a breakdown of what freedom of expression entails:
Speech: This includes spoken words, written text, gestures, and any other form of communication that conveys ideas or opinions.
Press Freedom: The freedom of the press allows journalists and media organizations to report news and express opinions without government interference. It's crucial for holding those in power accountable and ensuring transparency in society.
Artistic Expression: Freedom of expression extends to the arts, allowing artists to create works that express their ideas, emotions, and perspectives without fear of censorship or persecution.
Religious Expression: Individuals have the right to express their religious beliefs freely, including through worship, rituals, teachings, and public expressions of faith.
Political Expression: Citizens have the right to express their political opinions, assemble peacefully, and participate in political activities without fear of repression or retaliation.
Digital Expression: With the advent of the internet and social media, freedom of expression has expanded to include online platforms. People can express themselves, share information, and engage in discussions on various digital platforms
Le Tissier is in a league of his own. No one compares to him. He is a complete legend, and his integrity and common sense is through the roof.
If he was that good of a mate he would have stood up to be counted and that goes for the rest of them.
If you don't have your own opinion. You rely on other peoples.
Never thought much of Merson, I think even less of him now. With friends like him who needs enemies.
If your friend was sacked from a well paid job would you follow him out of the door?
@@Shads5 no but I wouldn’t mouth off about it in public. Would you?
Merson is a man who left school, straight into Football. Then straight into Football commentary. He's never had to think about anything and still thinks of the world as if he's in school. The only difference to most school children is he doesn't have the angst and the want to break free because he's past puberty long ago and is given everything he wants (money, fame). But he's never moved on mentally. He still sees where he works as a place where him and his "colleagues" are subservient children without any responsibility other than to do what they're told. He basically acts like a chronologically old child.
When Merson, considers a person as a friend then that person knows he has hit rock bottom !! 🙄🙄🙄
So you’ll watch young lads collapsing on the pitch and say nothing

Matt you are an absolute hero -sticking to his principles and beliefs and stating the truth.
Only someone like yourself Paul would lower yourself to submit to these cretins who try to impose tyranny - sheep follow sheep, real men follow the truth
Fair play to Matt, a footballer with integrity , a very rare thing, 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 total respect
No principles Merson!
Bro you’re calling yourself after a 1970s wrestler, why don’t you put your real name up and then discuss your beliefs, or better still walk into your employers office and tell him all about your political and religious beliefs, you see where I’m going with this? Lol, its easy for you to judge people in the public eye when you’re hiding behind an avatar, if your personal beliefs affected your livelihood and the ability to pay your bills son you’d probably swallow it to.
Protecting his job.

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.
They were very different players, Matt was a showman, Paul was dependable with a great understanding of the game….keep it simple…
@@mcihs2 i kept it very simple just told the truth from someone who watched both players so thanx for the unnecessary advice .
Good interview Ben but you need to sort the audio buzz
When your working for company you have pick your battles but fact he got 6 warnings
People in these comments wouldn’t say a word at their job if things needed saying but pretend that they would.
It’s not about being clever, it’s about being truthful. Merson is pathetic. Matt LeTissier is a Legend.
He’s also out of a job. Clever people keep their mouth shut
@@Shads5not necessarily, he obviously felt strongly about his opinions, sometimes people do things for the greater good wether they're stupid or smart...
@@Shads5 or possibly it was a case of “I’m not putting up with Skys woke degenerate crap any more and telling the truth”.
@@davidbrooks187yeah it’s woke to believe the truth hahahahaha
It is great that two people can have different opinions. I wish Le Tiss was talking more about football, but respect he decided to walk down another street. Not the end of the world. Life goes on.
I liked how they revealed why le tissier was sacked
Merson you are not that bright. Just thinking about your own personal life and not the bigger picture.
Matt saw something taking place which was obs wrong and had to say something.
He is in the right.
Sometimes just being concerned with your personal life and not getting bogged down with the ‘bigger picture’ is the best way to be. The trouble with 24 hours news and social media is being deluded into a sense of having to be concerned with everything that’s going on even when you have zero ability to change it. Ignorance can indeed be bliss.
Matt is the man mersons gone down in my estimation
Merson and streetwise in the same sentence.
Best giggle I've had for sometime.
Matt was not being “clever”, he was being courageous.
Neither.
Street wise LOL
Company man Merson, who needs enemies with friends like him
Paul Merson did warn Matt Le Tissier that he wasn't the sharpest tool in the box, but he did follow the rules of Sky T.V. religiously.
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!👍🏽
lol !!!
haha
Merson is a poor excuse for a man.
and a poor excuse of a futboller
Horrible human🤮
You know him personally?
I'd say he is a pathetic excuse for a man !
@@johnhankinson1929aw because he doesn’t tweet rubbish like Matt?
Matt has principles and refused to go along with the Black Lives Matter nonsense and wouldn’t wear their badge, you Paul put money and self interest before your principles, which was a shame
