Hi lads, haven't been on in a while, but your luck was going to run out at some point ay? Remember I did an overrated and underrated bpl 11, 2 teams in any formation, whatever, i'm bored, so in doing a world overrated 11, give your team lads just for something to do, here goes:overrated: GK: Victor Valdes-oh how I despise this man, poor goalkeeper, fails with simple saves and some people honestly rank him as one of the best in the world, crap. RB: Dani Alves-okay let me just start by saying yes I do hate barca but this fella is just so overrated, cannot defend like really cannot defend, great going forward but is just dreadful going back, phillip lahm is much better. CB: Sergio Ramos-this player just irritates me, just fouls people, reading of the game is nothing special and it doesn't take much to get past him, always getting sent off and is just okay at best. CB: Rio Ferdinand-i will defend this till the day I die, rio ferdinand has never been good, he is good on the ball and had pace about 10 years ago, one of the best defenders in the world? Hell no, always at fault for goals and just fouls people, anton ferdinand is a better centre half I promise you, rio is just poor. LB: Jordi Alba-i was stuck between him and marcelo, both are quite annoying, but alba is in because he has a horrible face and you got to love marcelos hair, anyhow, jordie alba is, in many peoples eyes, the best left back in the world, after seeing him at fault for all of bayerns goals last year I startes watching more of him and having seen him ripped apart by lucas moura and arjen robben, twice, it has made me realise what a fraud he is, good going forward, woeful defensively and shows how far you can come with a decent euro 2012 against some quite poor sides, he dives aswell, grrr. CDM: Sergio Busquets-he is the player I despise most in this team, having watched him for four years now all I can say is wow, by god is he overrated, having a huge lack of pace or strength you have to make uo for it by being ruthless, this guy not only dives, but prances around the pitch, passing sideways and gets thoughtbof as of the best midfielders in the world, why? He doesn't actually do anything, 'his reading of the game is so good!', no its not, I've seen well over 30 odd games which have just passed him by and he has never sone ANYTHING to impress me. CDM: Sami Khedira-yet another from la liga, don't worry, there is only one left after this guy, khedira strikes me as, well, someone wjo doesn't have a scooby doo what is happening, he works hard but not much else, he's clumsy on the ball, he's slow and in terms of defending, he's nothing special, how he gets ranked by some people as, well world class is beyond me. RW: Gareth Bale-i watched him against an ageing inter milan side with an average age of about 34, ibsaw him effortlessly sprint past an already finished maicon and people went wild, he then scored some nice goals against norwich and west ham, both of which shouldn't of went in if the players in front of him would of, you know, moved, what I have noticed is if you take away his pace what does he do, he kicks it up to the corner flag and chases it, beating the defender because hebknows he is faster, match him up against a pacy full back and he can't do jack sh*t, I watched real play getafe and their left back was rather fast and each time bale tried beating him for pace the defender had him in his pocket, bale, somehow, went to real for 86 million, 6 million more than teammate cristiano ronaldo, whom he is not fit to tie ronaldos laces, last night, real were beaten 2-1 by sevilla, another bale peroformance where if he can't outpace the full back, he is out of the game, he missed about 5 really good chances because hevwas greedy, in the prem he was given too much respect and should of been closed doelwn if the players he went up against possesed a pair, zidane labelled him the best player in the world, don't worry, he said the same about beckham last year and gerrard a couple of years ago, doesn't take much to pull the wool over his eyes. CAM: Kevin Prince Boateng-remember him at portsmouth? Yeah, well since moving to ac milan he has gained quite a few fans, some say he is top class and same now at schalke, let me think, really? He is injured more than crash test dummy's and isn't all that good, decent, nowhere near top class. LM: Jesus Navas-he has it all, good lucks, pretty blue eyes and his name is jesus, well, if he is the footballing incarnation of christ himself then i'm shocked because, by god, he is so friggin one dimensional, he always goes on the outside, never changes his play style and is very weak, reminds me of antonio valencia pre leg break, except valencia was strong and could cross the ball, navas, cannot, some calling him a bargain buy need to really look, because he is not all that. ST: Neymar-i know, I lied, I couldn't resist putting in the justin bieber of football, he does it all, dives, blows kisses at players, frustrates people, misses sitters and thinks he is ronaldinho, you're not ronaldinho mate, you're friggin neymar, paintbrush head, really some people said he was the best talent on earth, some people saying he would be better than ronaldo and messi, no, just, no, he has a few tricks and is quick, well done, so is anthony pilkington, don't mean you are special, after missin a sitter against england, being in many players back pockets throughout la liga, neymars overrated um ness is starting to show to more people notb buying into the hype of this guy, good on them, he isn't that good, in fact, he shouldn't be in the brazil team at all, shame he didn't come to the prem, would of been nice to see him flop in england as he would of ended up at some second rate club after 2 seasons, but we can't all have what we want, there's my opinion, what's yours? Bit of fun as I have no beers left and i'm bored out my tree and ed please post on the banter site as people cannot reply on the teams page
