Watching Paul Merson's latest attack on Manchester City sent me back almost a decade in time to the days of Harry Enfield and his grotesque character 'Loads a Money'.
How this ultra biased Gunner is still employed by Sky Sports is just a mystery to millions of watching fans across the globe.
It certainly isn't for his eloquence of speech as the washed up Ex- England star stumbles through yet another incomprehensible utterance as though he's just come back from lunch at the local pub.
The only conclusion I can think for the Toad of Powder Hall still being in a prime time television job is that he amuses host Jeff Spelling and the other pundits so much that they just can't bear to be without him.
In fact, the Ex-England star looks so much like the Toad of Toad Hall in a monkey suit that maybe thousands of Children worldwide are to blame for a rise in viewing figures as they believe his segment to be a continuation of children's programming.
In Toad's latest instalment he analyses Man City's performance against Hull City. In a game that City dominated but couldn't kill off, Hull were awarded a penalty to level the score and steal a point.
When asked about the Sky Blues, Merson labelled the Blues as a coach of Hollywood superstars who had failed at top four clubs and were now cracking under the pressure of failing to deliver!
Now I don't know about you Paul, but wasn't Carlos Tevez a big hit and winner at Man United? Wasn't Kolo Toure the last remaining member of 'The Invincibles' arguably the best Arsenal team of the last 30 years?
The next pearl of wisdom that made it's way out of this sorry excuse for a man's mouth was the bitterest attack on the Blues to date.
"I look at Man City's team and not one of them could get into a top four side..."
So astounded were Matt Le Tissier and the other pundits at what was coming out of the Buffoon's mouth, they were rendered speechless.
The silence was eventually broken by the tactful Stelling, sounding like a father to his teenage son, suggesting that Merson was exaggerating again and that of course Shay Given was good enough.
Merson's response was typical of a man who has long since made brain-to-tongue communication redundant in his world.
"He wouldn't get in ahead of Cech at Chelsea, but I'd 'av 'im at Arsenal..."
Are Arsenal not a top four side then Paul? The analytical genius obviously has a problem with City and one wonders if it is over more than just the Adebayor issue.
With a full three and a half minutes to talk, there is no shortage of material to illustrate how biased this man is and you just have to see it to believe it for yourself.
Merson entertains the kids
