~Sauron~: Poor Ronaldo, the lad can't be bothered with defensive duties, eh? |

@Dr So you will choose Steven ahead of Essiential ingridient |

Adebayor is certainly the most overrated player. I can't believe AC Milan want to pay 30 million for him. He misses the easiest of chances and then keeps smiling. Kirk Phinney. |

Re: Most Overated Player In The Premier League by tayoccu(m): 1:36pm On Mar 30, 2009 |
how is Gerrard overrated? the only position I haven't seen the guy play is goalkeeper. so for a guy with such talent, he is waaaaayyyyyyy underrated. |
Re: Most Overated Player In The Premier League by DrKitaun(m): 8:20pm On Mar 30, 2009 |
@DR AKOLAWOLE who is ESSIEN when Gerrard is being metioned ? pls lets stop this anti-Liverppol sentiments . . .Gerrard is better than any other English player still playing by miles . . . who is Rooney when GERRARD is being mentioned ? do u think he was given MBE for nothing ? give the boy his dude . . .HE IS A PHENOMENON even in Ghana, Appiah comes before Essien, yes or no ? |
Re: Most Overated Player In The Premier League by Sauron1: 8:26pm On Mar 30, 2009 |
Dr Kitaun: U dunno your football. . . . . Gerrard is English, Essien is an African. If Gerrard possesses 40% of Essien's talents, he woulda won the FIFA Player Of The Year.
Rooney compared to Gerrard?? Are you okay at all?? Wazza is 500 times better than Gerrard in so many ways. I can bring out Capello's assessment on the 2 players. He has told the media time n time again Rooney is the first player on his team list anytime anyday.
Politics!!! If he's that good, he shoulda won a league title in all these years.
English hype. Media boy. Poster boy.
In Arsenal, Bendtner comes before Adebayor. . . . .That is what you sound like now. |
Re: Most Overated Player In The Premier League by DrKitaun(m): 8:36pm On Mar 30, 2009 |
reacting so passionately to ur applesauce is such a big wate of time isnt the same u that said Torres is the best striker in Europe but cos u are/were still suffering from Scouse-fest u now turn round to say Villa is better . . .na wao Appiah is seen as the heartbeat of the team . . .are u douting that ? doesnt that sound to u like and OKOCHA AND KANU thing ? Rooney better than Gerrard in Capello's assessment ? PROOF PLS !!! |
Re: Most Overated Player In The Premier League by Sauron1: 8:54pm On Mar 30, 2009 |
Dr Kitaun: U and your endless prattle. . . . .
But you saw the 2 of em at Euro 2008. . . . .Who was the better player?? David Villa is better than Torres. Liverpool fans will tell you this anytime anyday. They wanted Rafa to buy him some weeks back cos they know Villa is the most clinical striker in Europe. He was a decent workrate. . . . .He is a Rooney + Torres combo(football brain and devastating finishing).
Appiah ke?? Essien is the essential recipe. . . . Without Essien in any team, that team will SUFFER.
I won't even go any further. . . .Read THIS |
Re: Most Overated Player In The Premier League by Bobbyb(m): 9:28pm On Mar 30, 2009 |
ALL this coz some1 who is jst Trying 2 b sentimental by saying GERRAD is overrated>>>>>>Infact he is d BEST MIDFIELDER in EUROPE! |
Re: Most Overated Player In The Premier League by DrKitaun(m): 6:44pm On Mar 31, 2009 |
~Sauron~: what has that link got to do with f@ckall ? the link hasnt got a mention of Capello in it or has it ? u mentioned Capello rates Rooney higher . . .PROOF PLS!!! |
Re: Most Overated Player In The Premier League by Sauron1: 7:48pm On Mar 31, 2009 |
Dr Kitaun: Fabio Capello sees Wayne Rooney as a future England captain but says the striker still needs to develop a killer instinct in front of goal. The England coach recognises Rooney as the 'most talented' player in his squad and someone he rates 'a natural leader' Click HERE Fabio Capello has demanded that Wayne Rooney improve his finishing. The England manager agrees that the attacker is the team's most talented player but says his reliability is a concern. Rooney went more than three years without a goal for his country in a competitive fixture, between the Euro 2004 quarter-final against Portugal and a qualifier against Estonia in October 2007, and operating as a lone striker he did not score in the recent friendlies with Switzerland and France. The story continues HERE |
Re: Most Overated Player In The Premier League by A40(m): 2:13am On Apr 01, 2009 |
Its just a means of stoking his fire!! Coaches use that technique all the time or who else should Capello motivate? an always injured Michael Owen |
Re: Most Overated Player In The Premier League by biina: 5:48am On Apr 01, 2009 |
easy Q: Christiano Ronaldo. He is good, but not that good! |
Re: Most Overated Player In The Premier League by tkb417(m): 8:57am On Apr 01, 2009 |
To all those who feel Gerrard is overrated. This is a quote from Kaka. One time world footballer of the year corroborating another ersthwile world footballer of the year “If I had to choose three, I would pick Cristiano Ronaldo, because of his skill and speed; Messi, because of his flair and skills; and Steven Gerrard, who for me is the complete modern player.” If Gerrard is a complete modern day player, i wonder why some people think hes overrated. I agree with Kaka, hes one of the few very talented footballers we can find around. same for CR7 and Messi fanstastic players ill love to have in my team. imagine these combo pf first Xi 1) Cech 2) Maicon 3) Evra 4) Mascherano 5) Vida 6) carvalho 7) CR7 Benzema 9) Torres 10)Messi 11)Ribery This team will kill any team for decades!!! |
Re: Most Overated Player In The Premier League by tocdee(m): 10:15am On Apr 01, 2009 |
tkb417: Excellent squad. BUT I'm not too sure about Evra on current form. I'll take Carragher over Carvalho (maybe i'm biased) and I'd play Gerrard over Benzema behind Torres as he prefers being a lone striker as it offers him more space to exploit. |
Re: Most Overated Player In The Premier League by Dotman01(m): 11:10am On Apr 01, 2009 |
Excellent squad but if u no get a world class coach, nd u put someone lyk big sam ? U go dey fight 4 relegatn be dat |
Re: Most Overated Player In The Premier League by dayokanu(m): 2:13pm On Apr 01, 2009 |
TKB, How come Gerrard is not in your team |
Re: Most Overated Player In The Premier League by Akolawole(m): 2:23pm On Apr 01, 2009 |
@Dr Kit How best is Steven G? He is playing twin-position.Midfield and supporting striker. 1) Is he the best midfielder in england? 2) Is he the best sub-striker in England? Just tell me yes or no. |
Re: Most Overated Player In The Premier League by tkb417(m): 2:30pm On Apr 01, 2009 |
Dayo Etoo, Kaka, Ronaldinho, Klose, Rooney, Ibrahimovic, Iniesta, Xavi, Asharvin and other world class players are not in my team I cant put everbody in ma team I didnt want to use Gerrard as a support striker cos Benzema is ma player anytime anyday Torres, Benzema (Gerrard as sub) Ribery, Masch, Messi, CR7 Thats the killer attack/midfield Tocdee u prefer carragher to Carlvalho? God forbid!! Carlvalho is one of the best around. Evra? i dunno who else to put. Evra to me is berra than clichy, cole, Abidal and co |
Re: Most Overated Player In The Premier League by Ibime(m): 2:32pm On Apr 01, 2009 |
How can you put Benzema or Gerrard as support striker ahead of Kaka? |
Re: Most Overated Player In The Premier League by tkb417(m): 3:23pm On Apr 01, 2009 |
Ibime I prefer Benzema and Torres na by force? |
Re: Most Overated Player In The Premier League by DrKitaun(m): 8:49pm On Apr 01, 2009 |
@Akola must I repeat this a million times before u understand what I am saying ? GERRARD is the best midfielder in the whole of Europe to me . . . .not even England why do u keep talking about positional play ? what was Henry playing for Arsenal ? a defined STRIKER'S role ? its thas something extra that brings into his team that ME likes GERRARD IS A DEMI-GOD !!! |
Re: Most Overated Player In The Premier League by Akolawole(m): 1:01am On Apr 02, 2009 |
Dr Kitaun: 1) The oracle had spoken We will re-open this discussion soon. |
Re: Most Overated Player In The Premier League by Sauron1: 1:10am On Apr 02, 2009 |
Dr Kitaun: This is ridiculous. I now understand why DAYOKANU shits on EPL fans. How can u say Gerrard is the best midfielder in Europe?? Did a gerbil crawl up your rectum?? Xavi, Iniesta, Senna, Essien, etc. . . . .
Henry played many roles for Arsenal. In the season Arsenal got to the final of the Champions League, Henry was deployed as an out n out/lone striker. I dunno why u drew this analogy but Henry was never the best striker in Europe throughout his stay at Arsenal.
Jesus Wept!!!! |
Re: Most Overated Player In The Premier League by A40(m): 1:25am On Apr 02, 2009 |
~Sauron~:Then how did he win the European Golden Shoe back to back in 2003-2004 and 2004-2005? |
Re: Most Overated Player In The Premier League by Sauron1: 1:51am On Apr 02, 2009 |
A-40: 2003/4, Shevchenko was better than Henry then. Forget the goals scored in the domestic league. Henry had the advantage of freekicks and penalty kicks. . . . . .Something most strikers don't have in their clubs. 2004/5, Diego Forlan, Samuel Etoo were better than him. |
Re: Most Overated Player In The Premier League by dayokanu(m): 5:33am On Apr 02, 2009 |
This is ridiculous. Took you so many years to understand one line of my thought? |
