Now that's a guy that was respected.
 
Sky Sports Commentator "Liverpool haven't scored in the last 15 minutes of a game at all this season, so as we enter that just now surely they'll be looking to change that"

3 seconds later...

"Liverpool score to make it 2-2!"

3 minutes later 3-2 to liverpool :lol:
 
Good games today, this L'pool game has been entertaining.

In other news, City fans really getting into the spirit now; they're throwing money away just like their club :lol:
 
Fantastic week for Liverpool..two wins in the league and progression in europe..in the top half for the first time this season...the club seems to have settled under Rodgers.
 
So no action has been taken towards the city supporter who threw a 2p coin at Ferdinand yesterday..but thats because Ferdinand hasnt lodged a formal complaint yet!..also the fan who invaded the pitch to try and get in his face has had his season ticket taken away.

And he's got a court hearing I think.

Tough question, I can't think of anyone right now who stands out way above anyone else, it's not easy to have an underrated player in this league. Overrated would be a lot easier.:sly:

After the week he's had........ Torres :sly::lol:

If I had to choose seriously though then it would be somebody like Kevin Nolan, overlooked for England even when the likes of Lampard and Gerrard were injured.
 
The most underrated player in the Premier League right now is

the entire Wigan Athletic team. Sure they don't always get the results, but their relatively unorthodox formation gets the job done. Kone and di Santo are a good forward pairing, their four primary centre mids can do a good deal of damage, their defensive wide-men can cause surprises and their defenders are relatively sturdy. Al Habsi is inconsistent and makes bad mistakes if he's not up to it, but on his day he is more than a good enough goalie.

And they love great escapes, too.
 
Ali Al-Habsi
Matthew Etherington

Two names which instantly spring to mind. Let me have a think of some others. I would say Ryan Nelsen, but he's quite old now.
 
I can think of quite a few! not just one..there are a few players who should have won England caps but havent..like Nolan, Noble, Dyer, Britton and Holt..

..other players that i think are underrated are..D.Fletcher, Routledge, Yacob, Al Habsi, Ireland, Neville, Sandro, Williamson..err..thats all i can think of for now!:lol:
 
Peter Crouch?
 
Underrated: Defoe, Lukaku, Bent

Overrated: Rooney, Taarabt, Barry

A lot more too but I can't think of them atm.
 
Hate to break up this debate momunterily..but its Bradford v Arsenal in the League cup now and despite Wenger naming a really strong team, Bradford have just scored and are 1-0 up!

Hahaha yeah, I saw that on livescore... :lol:

Go Bradford!!! :D
 
The team he's picked is only 1/2 players short of his first choice 11 as well!!
 
Well Sunderland is 2-0 up against Reading in todays PL match at half-time.

It's mad. Only guy who's not a 1st teamer is coquelin. Other 10 are the top guys. :lol:
 
And it was going so well. Vermaelen scored in the 88th minute.
 
I can't belie - oh wait, yes I CAN believe it. :lol:
 
Hahahahaha, oh Jason you're getting poop for this!
 
Good win for Bradford, that nine penalty shoot out wins in a row, which is an impressive record. Bad news for Arsenal, and the crowds are baying for Wenger's blood.

Otherwise, I think Berbatov is underrated, people just forget him sometimes.
 
Is Arsenal a sucky team now? I haven't followed soccer since like 2009, but I saw the Man U/ManCity game and noticed Van Persie was on United.
 
Not useless, but all their big players they grow and then sell to other clubs. So they aren't really title challengers anymore, but still top six. Squad lacks in quality in several positions too. It's all gone downhill since you last looked in.

I hate to admit it, but yes.

Wenger's policy was to bring in youth, groom them into world beaters and have them then carry the club to glory. The problem was, as soon as they got to a clutch game, they couldn't deliver, refused to sign new contracts off the back of their own inability to "win trophies" and got sold in big money deals to other clubs with deep pockets.

Wenger has stuck to this philosophy religiously, despite the same story happening year after year. Now he has brought in players that just are not gelling and not even getting the club into important games. Well done to Bradford, but its a shameful result for Arsenal.

Wenger needs to go; he has failed to deliver and his time is up. What a blotch on the record of a proud footballing club :(
