Heskey, Van Persie, Kolo Toure, Carrick, Cech?

Have you watched the premier league over the past few seasons?

to be overrated you have to of done nothing and still be rated, a la bentley, modric, yakubu et al. All of the above have played well, maybe lack of form at periods. But overrated? no chance
To be overrated you have to be rated more highly than you should be, simple as that.

In no particular order -

Gerrard, Torres, Tevez, Rooney, Cech, Essien, Drogba, Toure, Carrick, SWP.
Essien, Carrick, SWP, Cech and Torres :lol:

I think all are rated more highly than they should be, where's your list?
Right here:

Cech
Gerrard
Rooney
D.Bent
A.Cole
Bentley
Adebayor (I don't care what Gooners think but he cannot finish)
Carragher
Downing
Jenas
Can't fault that list much, but for me, A.Cole is underrated if anything.

Chelsea fans proclaiming that he is the best LB in the Premiership ahead of Clichy and Evra is good enough for me.

Hardly anyone rates Adebayor on here atleast (From what ive seen) so its not like he is rated that highly and he always gets put down for his finishing. Yet he has 10 goals for this season already and has been injured alot.

ha ha, wind the neck in, whats this about 'bitter' :lol:

please explain on what level Gerrard, Torres, Essien, Drogba are overrated

(the others i could debate too, as they are mostly very good players classed as such)
Simple concept. I think Gerrard, Torres, Drogba and Essien are all rated more highly in general than I would rate them. I'm sure you've seen my reasoning for each on various other threads down the months.
I think their respective performances are the reasons for why they are rated so highly.

Kolo Toure is definitely overrated. Hasn't a clue how to defend. All he had was power and pace and no that it is starting to go he is being exposed...

So why do you call Gerrard rubbish on a regular basis?

I don't think he's rubbish, it's a long running gag from another board. 'Gerrard is rubbish...' (in it's full terminology) is used as a wind up to the endless amount of Lamps v Gerrard v Scholes v Cesc threads

sacrasm, i know it's the lowest form of wit (but also the most intelligent) :)
