If I'm not mistaken, some on this site suggested him as a Lescott replacement.


Some suggested Daniel Agger too; another name who should be on this list.

He's from northern Germany & actually a pretty decent player. Slow & stiff as fuck, but you'd expect that with his build. Ask Arsenal supporters who their best CB pairing is & 9/10 will say Mertesacker & Koscielny.

Even tho I don't think he's shite, I'd rater mention Vermaelen in this topic. Absurdly overrated (is it his goals/bursts forward?) by loads, I think he's distinctly average.


Yeah but the question itself is a bit like saying "who is your favourite genocidal dictator?". Somebody has to get the vote, however terrible their deeds.


Ha!

"In my career so far it's the most important goal. You score the goal in the last minute to win the title. You're not sure if that's ever going to happen in your career again. I wish I could tell you how I did it but I can't. I thought for all the world that Mario was going to have a go himself but he just moved it on one more and it fell at my feet and I just thought: 'Hit the target, hit it as hard as you can and hit the target.' And it went in."

I'm starting to think Samir Nasri could be put on this list.

He's got the ability somewhere inside him, but rarely shows it. He's shite in pretty much every game he plays.

He's had over a year to settle in, but still isn't turning out to be the player I thought he could be.

If there's no improvement by the end of the season, I'd be happy to see him replaced. Obviously I'd rather that not be the case and he finds some consistency in his performances, but I'm not getting my hopes up.

I've seen him have two really good games for City, Spuds away and Chelsea at home. Not worth the shit load of cash we paid out for him.

Francesco Totti. I've never understood the hype around him. Completely overated in my opinion.

Or worth the amount of shit we went through to get him. One of the most protracted and frustrating transfers we have ever had.

Incredible how noone mentioned Lescott in this thread.

IMO pretty much every English player is vastly overrated apart from Barry. One that always struck me was Darren Gibson when he was rated the new Scholes!!!

of all the names I thought I'd see trotted out ... Totti was definitely not one of them. Completely disagree.

Modric and Ashley Young for sure, nice shouts. Glen Johnson, Sergio Ramos.

And like others, I'm thinking Nasri might belong on here.

I'm starting to get frustrated with Mario who could well end up on this list, if I hear potential and ability one more bloody time with not a sniff of it on view game in game out.....

Oh and Kieran Dyer
