Most under rated players who never played for City

[denislawsbackheel]

How could anyone not choose

Joey Barton

Thanks for everything Joey.

 

[Gareth Barry Conlon]

Gary Lineker is one that never gets a mention in all time discussions. But his record is pretty stand out.

109 goals in 208 games for spurs and barca.

 

[Dirty Harry]

Michael Laudrup. Criminally underrated, as was that Denmark team of the 80's.

That's a great shout, outstanding team and one lad that was ridiculously under-rated ? Preben Elkjaer, astounding he didn't get a relatively big move until he was late 20's, I think the fact he won the Serie A title with Verona when he did (shades of Maradona and Napoli) should tell you all you need to know.

Similar type of player was Paul Sturrock (Dundee Utd), like Elkjaer, quick, tricky, clever as fuck, great finisher, and a fuckin nightmare to play against.

 

[Out on blue 6]

Liam Brady

 

[Dirty Harry]

Ray Kennedy was another, won virtually everything at club level (but not that many England caps) was very much the "Frank Lampard " of his day with Liverpool.

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Effenberg

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

Always thought Olof Mellberg was an excellent centre half.

 

[bluesteel]

Thuram
Trezeget
Villa

 

[Dirty Harry]

Effenberg

Remember us being linked with him, maybe under KK ? Class player though.

 

[Mike N]

I actually think Shearer is underrated.

Agree with that. When you look at his record and the teams he played for its outstanding. If he’d have been in a red shirt we would have never heard the end of it.

 

[Blue Til Death]

Danny Mills

Presume you thought the thread title was underslated player ..

 

[Blue Til Death]

Yaya Toure, never really got the recognition he deserved

 

[Pell]

Dejan Savicevic always seems to go under the radar.

 

[greasedupdeafguy]

Antonio Di Natale

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Santi Carzorla.

 

[TheCentralScrutinizer]

Alan Hudson - “working man’s ballet”.

Robbed of the recognition he deserved through injuries and poor self-discipline off the pitch. Sold by Chelsea to pay for their new stand, sold by Stoke to pay for a new roof.

was gonna be my nomination,loved watching him as a kid

 

[Protein Junkie]

Just in case - I thought Alf Inge Haaland was a great player.

 

[GaudinoMotors]

Dirk Kuyt

 

[BigOscar]

Pablo Aimar, one of my all time favourites. Messi's idol as well, which says a lot

 

[Kippax77]

I actually think Shearer is underrated.

Hope you mean as a player and not a pundit
