mykali: Nah, I dont think Sheva is overrated. He just hasnt adapted to the English league cuz of the tempo,non tactical style, high no of yrs he spent in the serie A. I will give u good instances. Veron,Crespo and Mutu were very good players who had spent most of their top flight experience in Europe in Italy. They all flopped in EPL. When they got back to Italy they rediscovered their form. I guarantee u that if Sheva leaves for Italy today. he will get 20 goals in Italy. Mark my words. We are talking bout a Ballon'dor winner here. |

i just laugh when i read people saying that David Beckham is over rated. With his past performances for United and Real Madrid last season. You guys need to be more objective in your comments. What Beckham has achieved has not been achieved by any other English player, which is prove your worth outside England. Steve Mc'manaman did at real madrid but his influence and performance was not as stellar as Beckham's, Owen tried it and ended up injury prone. Beckham may not be worth his worth in Gold now. he was once the golden boy of English football, he delievered whn the chips were down, and you know what , when he failed to deliver the other 10 lions on the field were mere cubs. i don't like David Beckham, he would not make my bench if i were a coach, but by English standards he is the best they have had for a while. |

You are getting something wrong Beckham is popular and not overrated. Aside football, Beckham is a celebrity |

Re: Who Is The Most Overrated Footballer? by mykali(m): 11:05am On May 01, 2008 |
why will u want to mention frank lampard? despite the loss of his mom, he was fantastic against liverpool. |
Re: Who Is The Most Overrated Footballer? by lipuka(m): 11:22am On May 01, 2008 |
I watched Chelsea againt Liverpool in the UEFA Cup semi-final Wednesday. Drogba was great. He scored two goals and Lampard was substituted. Mind you, my team is, and has always been Liverpool. Forget about Man U and Arsenal. They had good players, Barns, Rush, Grobellaar and they won the UEFA Cup too. But I supported Chelsea because it is the only team in Europe with the highest number of African players. Even Makelele is African, although he holds a French passport. Now can somebody get another Okocha or Kanu from Nig? SAMSON LIPUKA NAIROBI KENYA |

Yeah Dominique, Kenyan love football; just like you there. Problem here is corruption and inept leaders. Remember Gor Mahia won the Mandela Cup in '87. We also got a silver in the African games against Egypt in the same year. We also beat Nigerria in Volleyball. And we are good in rugby, swimming. taekwondo, hockey and quite afew others. And yes, Liverpool is the team to watch. SAMSON |

Re: Who Is The Most Overrated Footballer? by lipuka(m): 12:23pm On May 05, 2008 |
I personally think most players are overrated and overpaid. We should have more sanity in soccer. But then we have to put the blame squarely on the Press. They are always looking for heroes, and create them. Just because they score a few goals, and they are turned into demi-gods. And the players then grow horns. The money and publicity gets into their heads. Look at Makelele now. This man from DRC and got a French passport is hardly ever seen. And yet he is always there at crUtial times. Nobody mentions him or even gives him credit. And he does not ask for any. A true footballer, if you ask me. SAMSON LIPUKA NAIROBI KENYA |

Re: Who Is The Most Overrated Footballer? by femikay149(m): 3:13am On May 10, 2008 |
C. Ronaldo highly overated.the guy only shines against small teams bt in big matches u dnt see him e.g. Chelsea VS Man U, Arsenal Vs Man U, Barcelona vs Man U. A good player must prove himself at the big stages. Beckham. More of a hollywood star to me nt a footballer. Bojan. Barca fans always make noise about him bt in UCL the guy culdnt deliver. Lampard is really overated .am a chelsea fan before u think am biased. bt lots of time Lampard ll be spoiling our game bt he wont be substituted i wonder y.most of his goals r deflections he cant even make intelligent passes and we call him an attacking midfielder. Micheal Owen. A real shadow of himself bt english press keep pressurizing capello to invite him to the national team Gallas. Arsene wenger tot he had struck gold when he swapped him for ashely cole and quickly made him captain bt this guy was the reason for arsenal loosing sum crucial points this season with poor defending.highly overated.Remember his hand ball against Man U. |
Re: Who Is The Most Overrated Footballer? by lipuka(m): 10:02am On May 10, 2008 |
Hello Bayo Mayo Thank you for your reply. As I said, I support Chelsea because it is the only team I can identify with. It has many Africans. I would sincerely have liked to see them win the English Premier League championship. And they could have done it too, if it had not been for the disorganisation at the beginning. They are going to beat Manchester United in Russia. Just watch. |

no offence but David Beckham is so overrated |
Re: Who Is The Most Overrated Footballer? by lipuka(m): 9:21am On Jun 07, 2008 |
We seem rather undecided as to who is the most overrated, or the best. That may just mean there is no one good enough. What do you say. |
