Anybody who wants to defend Vermaelen should take a look at this

most of those goals are issues with Arsenals defense as a whole, not so much Vermaelen.
On the Barceloena game, there was no defensive cover in midfield, you see Vermaelen close the ball down and signal to song to mark Ibrahimovic.

Vermaelen was more of a full back, still learning his trade at centre back, the instinct of a full back is tight marking.

If that list had played against your lot, we would have romped you again :'(

Anyway, I'll say Barry for me. Has been simply shocking this year, it seems money has made him a worse player. I thought it was a good signing for City but it seems not.

Also, I would like to throw Diaby into question, he has had an awful season. Too slow on the ball and waits until the last possible to pass.
 
Joe, with youtube videos you say SWP is good. Did you ever watch Berbatov compilation?
Anyways your list is **** as always. FOR Underrated you mention all city players and Overrated you list everyone but city players. How in the world is Van der Sar overrated? He won 2 UCLs, Won penalty shoot out in the final, Even at 40, he is performing week in week out. If there is any keeper who is overrated in EPL, it is surely Given. Cant leave the line to save his ***. He was rated well when he was with Newcastle, but with city everyone thinks he is the second coming. Good shot stopper, nothing else. Cant command his area, cant collect cross, cant kick. Distribution awful.

alot of chelsea players in their for a so called chelsea fan. you obviously dont know football at all.
 
i dont see how mikel is overated hardly knowone rates him in the first place.
 
Absolutely no idea how you can say that Reina isn't up to Liverpool standards, he's an incredible keeper and a great influence to the other players on and off the pitch.

Tough one, but overrated for me would probably be Walcott and Barry.
 
People saying Reina and Fabregas as overrated should get their headschecked.
 
Rio Ferdinand... He only looks good wen Vidic Plays well they praise him to much ...
 
Don't even start me:

Sean Wright-Phillips
Gareth Barry
Dimitar Berbatov
Emmanuel Adebayor
Abou Diaby
Sylvan Ebanks-Blake
Nicklas Bendter
Michael Carrick
Alberto Aquilani
Jermain Defoe
Wes Brown
Yossi Benayoun
Younes Kaboul
Andrew Johnson
Michael Ballack
Paulo Ferreira
Petr Cech
Michael Kightly
Nicholas Anelka (He has improved a heck of alot, but still overrated)
Gomes (Had a more consistent season but still overrated)
Ledley King
Wayne Bridge

you include cuellar but dont put lescott or bridge in there? :S
cuellar is brilliant for us and has had an excellent season, the only time he looks anything less is when he plays at right back - which isnt his natural position. the dot on his RB position fm would be VERY red when putting cuellar at right back!!!

OVER RATED's :

Valencia, Nani, Brown, Giggs, Berbatov, Lescott, Bridge, Kompany, Barry, De Jong, Adebayor, Rosicky, Diaby, BENDTNER*, REINA*, Kuyt, G. Johnson, Aquilani, Insua, P. Ferreira, Ballack, A.Cole, Anelka, Gomes, CROUCH*, Lennon, Heskey, Zamora.

theres probly other ones I cannot stand, but have forgotten to mention!
