I'll give one of mine.

Nainggolan is the best player in the world in his role (B2B).

Reus is one of the most overrated players on the planet, padding in Buli means nothing, Firmino was a generational player there if we are going by stats. He had 1 decent season in CL but that was about it

Busquets is WC and one of our best players Razz

It's not unpopular though, everyone knows how crucial he is for us.

We'd not have rated Schurrle if he wasn't German

I think most people rate him just fine. Excellent vision and passing ability, very good technique. End of.

Here's one:

100% fit prime Reus is better than 100% fit prime Neymar, Hazard, and Griezmann.

I don't really see where you get that from. Firmino didn't actually have good numbers in Bundesliga. he had one season where he performed great and scored in double digits, out of 4, or even 5, seasons he played there and didn't produce much. Noone in Germany would consider Firmino as a memorizable Bundesliga player in anyway.

What has Adriano to do with those frauds ?
He was really fantastic before he fell into depression

by M99 Wed Mar 22, 2017 10:15 pm

Robinho was also brilliant at Madrid.

Marcelo is overrated cause fans nowadays are just so in love with dribbling, and dribbles means your playing great, he has been tried as a cm and winger it sucked, yet as soon as he pulls off a flick, same brain dead posts, decent attacker with his link up and dribbling, but his crosses are 50/50 and shooting is rash, lb version danilo without the fan bias of course, overrated? sure but most ever? nah he plays for Madrid he is gonna be rated over the top good or bad.

by Mr Nick09 Wed Mar 22, 2017 10:43 pm

I think Marcelo is the most influential attacking fullback in europe. I think there is a healthy understanding that he is a poor defender, but can be so overwhelming in offense. You can't call him the LB version of Danilo, that's ridiculous.

by chad4401 Wed Mar 22, 2017 11:01 pm

That influence is the same reason he is bad defensively, always chilling near the halfway line that bad awareness needs to said, instead of shifting blame on kroos for failing to cover 2 or the 3 players running at him for example
, I'm not knocking what he brings to the offense but his dribbling is the main reason why he doesn't get flamed like danilo, he is obviously a better player my point they are similarities between the two overall not quality.

Gimmick posting?

Was it gimmick posting when i was said Atleti will reach the final when they beat us that year in CL?

Was it gimmick posting when i said Pool won't win the PL during Brenton era?

Was it gimmick posting when i was right about Pep?

Was it gimmick posting when i call out Bundesliga, when Leverkusen crash out year after year after year and Dortmund can't flick a fly at home to Juve?

Was it gimmick posting when i said Arsenal's signings won't change anything?

Maybe you should learn a few things you ignoramus, before you star calling people out

by chad4401 Wed Mar 22, 2017 11:10 pm

The only times I remember Marcelo being solid, was when coentrao was benching him, he played very balanced in those period, so he can do much better imo he just doesn't do it.

by Mr Nick09 Wed Mar 22, 2017 11:13 pm

It's because ancelotti and Zidane are not pressuring him with another player that can start. He is treated like a perennial starter for good or bad

Seen somewhere links about another lb coming, hopefully its someone decent enough to push him, great player but just too lax about defending when its half his job, bothers me to where sweet dribbling doesn't make it less glaring at times, and not enough of the fanbase and media gets on him for that, makes him overrated imo.
