I swear if we had the Piggy in our team, we would never have to lose the midfield battle to some of the small clubs.

Roberto Soldado is very under rated imo. At least from what I have seen.

by Lord Awesome Fri Sep 09, 2011 7:07 pm

Negredo & Soldado were both underrated last season.

I remember I was the one that noted those two.

Today they are scoring goals.

I can name 20+ midfielders who can slot into Busquets' position and do his job perfectly.

I think most considered him one of the best DM in europe even when he was at Liverpool.So dont think he is underrated.

Raul is also a bit underrated this season. 34 yo, 799 overall apps under his belt and has scored 346 goals..Him and huntelaar are the only ones atm whos keeping Schalke 04 alive, since theres no midfield and the back 4 is very leaky.

Darren Bent is pretty underrated for a striker.

by EarlyPrototype Fri Sep 09, 2011 8:11 pm

Bent is so under rated its criminal

Lucas Leiva

mehmet *bleep* topal

second best dm in the league, in a side that doesn't have majority possession i'd even pick him over busquets

by Serge Gnabry Fri Sep 09, 2011 8:19 pm

Reus probably, who outside of Germany even knows of him?

Maybe Schalke's Papadopoulos as well, a great talent that can play CB as well as a Gattuso-like destroyer in midfield and is not often mentioned when talents are being discussed.

by Ali Fri Sep 09, 2011 8:23 pm

BENT !! So good , so so so good

Mascherano is not the best tackler in the world, I'd even put Verminator ahead

also what's this talk of Schweini being a best CM ever? LOL

by boss Fri Sep 09, 2011 8:53 pm

BALEeee & Huntelaar (2 Fantastic players) and many more like Gibbs,Van der Wiel,Rodwell, Gamst, etc etc >>>

I fail to see how John Terry could be underrated by anyone.

The man clearly has some defensive ability remaining, but the rest of his game is now absolutely woeful.

He has no pace whatsoever. When beside a competent CB, this will go unnoticed, but when he is with a poor CB, then he tends to struggle and he can often be exposed. He could be described as a fast strikers dream in a way.

An example of him being exposed was at the 2010 WC. He was alongside Upson, who you would not really describe as a top class defender. The result? Germany tore the England defence to pieces.
