Player that everybody loves but you think is overrated

Ederson. I know he's great with the ball at his feet but he nearly gives me a heart attack several times a game and I don't rate him particularly as a shot stopper.

I've never got it.

Did you not watch him in the Champions League Quarter,Semi and Final.
Brilliant in all 3 final rounds.
Rice is getting overrated now,average last season and average so far this season.
Saka form fell off a cliff as he shat it big time since March and still has not recovered this season.
Any rag that leaves them to a lower level club seems to struggle.

Probably get pelters for this but fuck it here goes, Van Dijk.

From who?

He’s not the GOAT defender that the dippers think he is.

Caicedo, watched him closely and honestly didn't understand the hype about him. People were wanking themselves into a frenzy over him in the transfer forum. A decent player, but a worldy? A 100m plus player, GTF.

Ì never understood the fuss over captain cripple.

£1.5 million, or whatever it was, that Big Fat Ron paid West Brom for him seemed far too much.

And he was always injured.

The ultimate one footed player, had to do a 360 degree turn at times just so he could get the ball onto his left foot.
Back in the mid 80's someone organised a trip behind the scenes at the Swamp, which you could do for free in those days, we were shown around by this old bloke. As we went into the dressing room all the shirts were hung up one through eleven. This bloke says, over in the corner sits the great man. It was the No 7 shirt, I expected him to say George Best but he Robson. I looked at one of my colleagues who was one the few sensible rags I have known, there are one or two, he just said there shaking his head. It became a standing joke between the two of us.
Wilkins was twice the midfielder he was.

They are all overblown. The England team is, on value of fees paid (or valuations), the most expensive in world football.
They are wank.

So makes Southgate getting these ‘wank’ footballers to a Euros final and WC semi pretty impressive :)

Watching this england game got me to thinking who is a player that everybody else loves but you think is crap?

For me its saka, i just dont see it, he seems to be universally acknowledged as englands great hope but everytime i see him im like i must be missing something, hes just a good player for me, nowt special

I was of that opinion for Saka for a long time when Arsenal fans were raving over him - but last couple of years he’s really stepped up to a different level and looks class.

I’ll go for … and really hate doing this. But perhaps Bellingham , I feel he gets so much praise and hype but for England I just find him wasteful and a bit frustrating. Obviously he’s a special talent and young so hopefully can win me over soon enough.
