Oh how I wish for GB'S return. Spurs have gone from strength to strength since he disappeared.

Please come back with comments like this. Oct 18 2012. Went on to have a great season. Come back GB, make a prediction about Carroll, it might make him serviceable
On second thought. Stay away then

He was excellent against Bayern. Much better than the hyped up Pogba.

I think he has possibly returned, but keeping on the downlowPlease come back with comments like this. Oct 18 2012. Went on to have a great season. Come back GB, make a prediction about Carroll, it might make him serviceable
Harden up
that's what i dont get....how is he overrated? many people call it like it is with him - one trick pony who has terrific pace/acceleration etc, however consistently produces poor final balls/crosses (albeit this season thus far he has improved in that department).
i saw djourou mentioned above - who in their right mind rates him?!
Hey look! Four years on......
That is truly the most accurate analogy of a poster I have ever read!
He is kinda right, Pogba is brilliant but he isnt worth the €80-100m or whatever Juve are probably going to get for him.

Half the people who are called overrated arent rated by many at all.
People still get confused between overrated and not very good.

Stones. Martinez as a manager. Adam Lallana. Hazard even before this year was over hyped. Had a very good year but not at world class level
Don't think Wilshere is overrated. He's a very good footballer who just happens to not play often.
Oozes talent, but is a gobshite and injury prone.
And no way Pogba is overrated.

Jordan Henderson, a Liverpool captain and FIFA coverstar despite being a pretty limited player.
I kind of agree about Pogba, I mean that's not to say he isn't world class but there is a level of hype around everything he does that other players of a similar level do not enjoy, he's similar to Ibrahimovic a bit in this regard IMO.

Pogba is good but he's not the best mid in the world. Hazard was def hyped last year, saw people say last year he was the 3rd best in the world, he was the best in the EPL but nowhere near 3rd best in the world.

I didnt think Lallana would be rated that highly to them become overrated.
Should have a thread for underrated players also.
Maybe, but if you did a fan poll of the EPL's best strikers before this season he would've been top 5, maybe even ahead of Kane (such was Giroud's second half of 2014/15 - best goal to minute ratio of anyone bar Aguero last season IIRC).
He's nowhere near that at the minute, and hasn't been for most of this season.
