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

[Tomwin Lannister]

Pepe (Juventus)

His crossing is poor but he's actually been an unsung hero for Juventus. Unfortunately we play 3-5-2 now and I wouldn't play him as a RWB over Licht/Isla but in a 4-3-3 I would have no problems with him starting.

He is non-stop work rate and chips in with a fair amount of goals and some of his runs last season were epic.

[Art Morte]

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

You're calling Podolski underrated on this forum?

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

Good call, he deserved better after his 2010-11 season.

[Tomwin Lannister]

I agree with Vucinic and Marchisio, so underrated.

[Art Morte]

Since my Andy Carroll shout got no reaction I have to throw in Adam Johnson

[Albiceleste]

Wakaso

[Art Morte]

Wakaso

He's an absolute beast in FIFA 12, me and my friend bought him to our Bristol Rovers team and he's been immense

he's awful irl 2 me

[LeBéninois]

Robinho and Diaby

Robinho with the right coach an less pressure would have been much more consistent

[RealGunner]

Benzema

better player than Aguero imo (higuain shouldn't even be mentioned here. no offence jay )

[BAYERN_MUNICH]

Toni Kroos

[lenear1030]

Ramires

[Valkyrja]

Hernanes, beast CM, good CAM. I can't believe why he isn't called up for Brazil. He can play in a 4-3-3 with Oscar and Lucas/Gustavo IMO. (started his carrer as a DM)

[VanDeezNuts]

Call me biased but i think van der vaart has always been underrated on and off the pitch he is pure class.

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

Gareth Barry and Aaron Lennon, yes i'm serious.

[Onyx]

Lennon.

[Arquitecto]

Defoe simply CANNOT be underrated considering he is the lovechild of the mainstream english pundits who rate him as if he is the next coming of Ian Wright. Good player but not underrated.

Finally someone rates the Basque Roonay here. He is the ultimate impact who subs adds much with his work rate, two footed skill and vision. Far better than most SS out there.

TOQUERO LEHENDAKARI!!

Gareth Barry and Aaron Lennon, yes i'm serious.

Absolutely.

Lennon may be a one trick pony and limited yet as far as I'm concerned he causes serious havoc out there with his pace and movement. Is a more effective player than Walcott as well as I would love to have him in my team.


Barry is a rare mention as since most don't understand tactics they don't understand Barry just because his play is subtle. Theres a reason why tactical behemoths like Mancini, Rafa and Capello all rate him and would start him every game. A tactically astute player. I rate him.

[VanDeezNuts]

vertonghen

[McAgger]

Teemu Pukki

Antoine Griezmann

Pablo Piatti

Toby Alderweireld

[Gil]

Wes Hoolahan has to be up there. No idea how he doesn't make the Irish squads.

[FennecFox7]

ronaldo

[RedOranje]

This is perhaps a bit pedantic but I'll say Glen Johnson. I don't believe he's nearly as error-prone as is generally made out. I rate him defensively far higher than most that I've talked to.

Other names that come to mind seem more to do with name recognition rather than actual rating... players like Strootman, Sean Johnson, etc that are not really rated only because they're not widely known yet.

The only other player I can really think of that currently comes to mind is Landon Donovan... still gets far too much stick for one bad run in Germany, while ignoring all he's done since, especially on the international stage.

Is this THE OFFICIAL: 'Players you don't rate but now that they have played well against your team, you all of a sudden do, but others don't' THREAD ?

[VanDeezNuts]

ill probably get a lot of hate for this one but- assou-ekotto

there i said it.

[Emaharg]

Sandro, Shane Long, Shelvey.

[urbaNRoots]

Lorik Cana, Antonio da Silva (not now 2-3 years ago), Sebastian Rode and Hiroshi Kiyotake.
