John Brielsford (that best left back in the world?)

 

 

Who?  I've googled him and can't even find him, never mind know if he's over rated!

 

Some really harsh calls in this thread though.  Andy Robertson is a fantastic player.

 

Can't argue with the following though:

 

Dele Ali

Eric (is) Dier

Pogba

and the one that really baffles me with all the praise - Jack Grealish

Just not bothered...

It redefines overrated. Someone who doesn't exist being the best left back in the world lol

Right Owlstalk which current footballers do you think are massively overrated by fans and/or the press?
 

They can be from any level - Premier League, Championship, or any other.

 

I’ll kick us off with a few Scotland and England internationals who are in my opinion vastly overrated:

 

Andy Robertson

Jordan Pickford 

Harry Maguire

Scott McKenna

Dele Alli 

 

 

Over to you...

 

Agree with the rest, but Andy Robertson overrated?

 

Why on earth do you think that?

 

I can think of 2 who I would say are better - Marcelo and Alba.

 

No LB in the Prem is better than him. Mendy when fully fit maybe, but on current form? Not a chance.

What?

 

The best club team in the world win 82.4% of their games when he plays, but only 58.3% when he doesn't.

Some real howlers in this thread. I am sensing a little anti-LIverpool bias.

 

More than anything I think it just shows how little people know about football.

 

He's not fashionable, he's not flashy, but by god is he effective.  I hate Liverpool, but their team this year is just about perfect.  There are no weak links in the first 11 for sure.
