How do you rate a player? (Like world class, big name...etc)

[keemcfc]

I'd say:

Shay Given - The stage between really good and world class
Joe Hart - Really good, One for the future
Kasper Schmeichel - Average
Stuart Taylor - Average
Wayne Bridge - Quite good
Richard Dunne - Quite good
Javier Garrido - Quite good
Micah Richards - Quite good and one for the future
Nedum Onuoha - Very good
Pablo Zabaleta - Very good
Shaleum Logan - Maybe one for the future
Tal Ben-Haim - Average, maybe quite bad
Gareth Barry - Really good
Nigel de Jong - Very good
Blumer Elano - Really good
Kelvin Etuhu - Maybe one for the future
Martin Petrov - Really good (still?)
Michael Johnson - Really good (Still?)
Shaun Wright-Phillips - The stage between world class and really good
Stephen Ireland - The stage between world class and really good
Vincent Kompany - The stage between world class and really good
Vladimir Weiss - One for the future
Craig Bellamy - The stage between very good and really good
Benjani Mwaruwari - Average
Carlos Tevez - The stage between world class and really good
Ched Evans - Average or below, maybe one for the future
Felipe Caicedo - Very good, one for the future
Jô - The stage between average and Quite good, one for the future
Robinho - Big name, really good
Roque Santa Cruz - (capable of being a) Really good player

I generally see world class as top 5 or so in their position.

After that I see things on a levels basis. No name for them but it probably looks like this

10 - Messi / Torres
9 - Robinho / Aguero
8 - Ireland / Tevez
7 - Cahill / Kuyt
6 - Anderson / Bent
5 - Gelson / Benjani

No exactly the same thing, but the players i rate the highest are probably different to those who would be considered the very best in the World. What i love in a player is intelligence and awareness. Iniesta is my favourite player outside of City, it's like he has eyes in the back of his head and is in constant and complete control of the ball. If you don't watch it closely the way he plays can be quite easy not to notice, but his game is amazing.

Ireland is the closest thing we have, he's nearly as good to watch when he's at his best.

Messi is generally considered the best in the World, but i think alot of what he does is instinctive, like he's reacting to situations rather than controlling them like Iniesta does.
