THE OFFICIAL: 'Players you rate but other's don't' THREAD

[Gil]

Tbh I just created this thread to ask why Hernanes is so damn underrated. Seems like a beast with hardly any weaknesses whenever I watch him but even the Serie A fans on here hardly ever mention him.

Oh and shoutout to Victor Anichebe & Gervinho for those who have been on Chat recently.

[The Franchise]

Hernanes is a bit slow of foot from what I seen, but that aside I think hes very good.

I think everyone will probably be surprised by just how many people rate the players they dont think others rate.

Though im not sure how many will join you on the Anichebe thing lol

[Art Morte]

Andy Carroll.

[The Franchise]

Oh, I have one. Robinho.

Misses sittters, sometimes dissapears, everyone hates him..but when on form, playing often...he can actually be pretty damn good. I kinda rate him.

[fatman123]

its a shame the rest of you are too naive to rate Shane Long

[Gil]

Hernanes is a bit slow of foot from what I seen, but that aside I think hes very good.

Yeah, he's a slow bastard. But unlike Alonso & Ganso, he's a pretty dynamic player & he defends as well.

[Art Morte]

[gondov]

Defoe

If only he was a lil bit taller, he would be rate higher in the EPL.

[Onyx]

Yeh Defoe's underrated. So is Godric just because he doesn't score or assist every minute. Scoring and assisting is the only thing some EPL fans rate.

[S]

Dunno tbh.Hernanes is rated just fine by Serie A fans.He's rated very highly infact.

As for this particular topic ,my pick would be Sami Khedira who i happen to rate very highly but many of them including Madrid fans themselves seem to dont rate him at all.Solid player with a great mentality.Does the job what is to be required of him very efficiently infact.

[Highburied]

Sami Khedira is probably the most overrated player today.

How he plays for Madrid is a mystery.

Yeah I give you that, he is more dynamic than those two. I only see him in the big games vs teams like Juve, Milan, Inter or Roma...I aint exactly going to cut my Sunday short to watch Lazio with all due respect but I probably seen enough to judge him a little.

One question is though, where is he best suited. For Lazio he is like a 10, but he could play anywhere really. Could bring him deeper into midfield like he used to play and he could still play great.


I like Defoe too for those calling him. Excellent finisher.

[II Capitano]

Definitely Sami Khedira. Complements Xabi Alonso really well and has found his feet - he was great last season. However, if he was given the freedom by Mourinho, he would be even better (Khedira of Germany)...

[Highburied]

Id like to throw a forgotten name here:

Antonio Valencia

Never disappoints.

[Onyx]

Khedira is overrated in terms of being underrated.

[Jay29]

Emile Heskey.

In all seriousness, I rate Luka Modric very highly despite there being a large number of people who don't.

And Higuain, to a lesser extent.

[juventus101]

Podolski, Vucinic, and Marchisio. Amazing players who are all criminally underrated.

[urbaNRoots]

Just by reading this thread... Sami Khedira.

Di Maria is another one... then Kuba, Diego Milito and Mertesacker.

[guest7]

Di Maria and Khedira are great examples, the amount of bullshit I read about these two in the Madrid section makes me cringe

[Ganso]

Di Maia underrated?more like overrated

[EL Patron]

Berbatov ??, one of the most technical strikers out there but according to some he is lazy and overrated

[Firenze]

^Top 5 striker in the EPL easily.

Ivanovic at CB.

[gondov]

Dani Alves

[Busby Babe]

Pablo Hernandez

[che]

pablo is shit lol

so is khedira for that matter... and di maria underrated? seriously?

anyway i'm a big fan of toquero... some of the stuff the guy pulls off is mindblowing, too bad he doesn't have any end product lol
