Kante, wasn't good when he was in the youth team and wasn't good when we brought him back home.
Maybe the likes of Pep would change thatZero work rate. If Pep inherited him, he’d be out the door within the week.
I thought Fowler and McManaman were taking the piss out of Keegan and the club whilst they were here - on massive wages and both well past their sell by date. Neither gave 2 fucks about the club or the fans.Yeah, De Jong was limited and nowhere near the player some thought he was. Still a decent player for the club though.
I will say that there were times when I thought Uwe was taking the piss with a sulky attitude and conning the fans by pretending to make massive efforts.
Anelka, though, was taking the piss 90% of the time be was here and not trying properly. Obviously talented but I never knew why some thought he gave a shit about the team.
Fowler too - couldn't even be arsed getting as fit as the average 40 year old bloke - but I don't think he is remembered particularly fondly.
There have been quite a few I haven’t rated but the question is about players that most people do rate, so I’m going to say Kolarov.
Imo, he was one of the worst full backs I have seen at City (and there have been some dogs !). Terrible tackler, always out of position and always far too eager to get upfield and far too lazy to get back when he gave the ball away - which he did a lot. Scored the occasional worldy and once in a bluemoon put in a decent cross which made everyone think he was a genius. He wasn’t. Our centre backs struggled every time he played. It can’t be a coincidence.
A myth, he was at fault for the Owen goal and turned like a milk float in his first game which we lost.His first game he was immense. Just the presence he had.
Then he wasn’t so immense. Similar to Mangala.
Haha good one!Most overrated player of all? Tin hat firmly on.... Vincent Kompany. A great player but never world class imo.
I'd add Aguero and Yaya to that listI will go with Kompany and Hart!!
