I know this has been done before but every couple of months we all change opinion, my 3 most overated players in the prem at this time in order are.

1, Abonglahor… probably my most overrated player of all time.

2, Carrick, would look very ordinary in any other team.

3, Downing….nuff said.

haba guy, i dont think carrick fits into dat bill, coz i really do consider him a good reader of d game: never chasing d game! he is 1 of d few players inwhich watever situation he finds himself,knows wat 2 do, proove me wrong?Downing jst lacks pace but has great technique,
Agbonlahor he is on his own, lol

my guy Carrick was astounding in tottenham b4 man u came 4 him.

Berbasuck, Wayne Rooney, Almunia, Carrick, Robinho, Mikel, Malouda(13m)

I'm surprised you did not include Ronaldo

Ronaldo is player of the year na. He is far better than those other cripples there.

Have you forgotten the saying of the one eyed man being king in the land of the blind?

Aunty Dayo, considering Ronaldo is world player of the year, can you please clarify the geographical boundaries of the Land of the Blind?

@dayokanu afta surfing d sports section realised u'r a 'GERMAN' dats kinda cool, but 1 can also include:
borowski,kroos,rensing,PODOLSKI!

@BobbyB,
The title of the thread reads PREMIER LEAGUE. Which part of that dont you understand?

Which of those players are in the Premier League

@ topic
BERBATOV, ROBBIE KEANE & ADEBAYOR _{caf must be insane for making him player of the year.}. i'll think of others later.

Adebayor was the only player that was fit and inform when he won the award

thats bogus. its not by that, prior performances is count. togo did not qualify for nations cup and he was for almost injured for half the season in arsenal. so how the hell did he qualify for the award.
@ topic
90% of chelsea players; deco, ballack, drobga, malouda, kalou. . .

Do you want to compare ADEBAYOR WITH ZAKI ans ABULTRAKA

no, but when it comes to recent performances, aboutrika have an edge. winning the gold for both club and country na small thing?. Abebayor wasnt consistent for arsenal because of injury. anyway sha, the deed has been done.

Berbatov and Keane are overrated??
Are there any more consistent strikers in the PREM apart from these dudes??

For i think adebayor deserve the title

See how he was voted

http://entertainmentgist.com/index.php?itemid=28#more

What's so consistent about keane?

BERBATOV, ROBBIE KEANE were in the same club before man u and liverpool bid for them and they were all performing well then and now i think BERBATOV, ROBBIE KEANE need to be give a real work to do, not to work for them.

you are right m4show

they need to be in the game fully.

FOR ME I THINK CARRIC IS OVER RATED

WETIN HE PLAY AGAINS LIVERPOOL

FOR ME I THINK CARRIC IS OVER RATED

WETIN HE PLAY AGAINS LIVERPOOL

nobody rates him highly in d first place so the over rated thingy is shitty

back to ur moronic comment, so since Vidic didnt play well against Pool, hes over rated too?
dont let me abuse u o cos e be like say ur brains no dey work

Gerrard is the most overrated player in prem. They would have you thinking that dude is the best thing since sliced bread. From the hype that guy garners, I would swear he's better than Lionel Messi.

How can you say that about the General?

Lampard is the most over rated player in the Prem besides his deflected freekicks and shots on goal i really don't see the noise about him

How can anyone in his right senses mutter that Stevie G is over-rated
By such inference,maybe Zidane was high on Algerian grass when he posited that he rates Gerrard highly

Without a doubt it has to be Robbie Keane
Still dont know the jazz he used for benitez

Berbatov and Rio without a doubt

If Zidane places Gerrard above the likes of Messi, Ronaldo et al, it just proves that HE IS BEING OVERRATED!

No wonder Zidane has no chance to be a manager, with the kind of bollocks that comes out of his mouth.

Lamps on the other hand is underrated because axiomatically inclined idiots like A-40 log on to Nairaland to denigrate his abilities, even when the statistics show that Lamps is head and shoulders above most of his contemporaries, including Gerrard.

@Ibime
Going ballistic 'cos Lamps is in your club right? It's an opinion dude

@topic

M. Ballack (is he still hyped even? )

M. Almunia

E. Adebayor

S. Gerrard (dude's living on past glory)

D. Berbatov (he is cool, but still comes in second to Torres)

Berbatov _{Lanky Arrow}!

I guess we are mixing loss of form which can be due to so many factors to this hype thingy
for instance

M. Ballack (is he still hyped even? )

How can Ballack be here? hes lost his touches doesnt mean hes no good or hyped.

S. Gerrard (dude's living on past glory)

Steven Gerrard living on past glory? hes the best player in Liverpool. One of the best in the world, Hes been very consistent playing for club for 5 years!!!
when was the glory ure talking about?

D. Berbatov (he is cool, but still comes in second to Torres)

yeah, i think Berba is over rated. i cant see why we paid 30 somthing for him. can we have some change abeg.
Berba lags behind many strikers in the epl, not only Torres. Rooney, Torres, RVP, Drogba et al are playing better.
Not saying he cant be better but as at today, march 19, 2009. We need Spurs to refund some part of the money we paid

I'd say most of the English dudes are overrated, except Gerrard (whom the legendary zizu calls the best player in the world), walcott(still young and needs more time).

1. Adebayor

2. Tevez

3. Ballack

4. Malouda

5. Deco

6. Lucas

7. Zaki

8. Agbonlahor

9. Elmander

10. Rio
