Daniel Sturridge, seems to be rated by some as a top player. Consistently makes the wrong decisions in front of goal by attempting shots rather than playing in team mates, comes across on the pitch as a selfish wannabee who isn't a tenth as good as he seems to think he is.

Sums it up fairly well I would say. Glad he scored tonight but mostly he was shocking.

Rio Ferdinand, I've always felt he's shit, even in his so called prime I've never understood the hype.

It's a pity, because he certainly has ability, but just doesn't know how to play football; like most of our most talented academy graduates.

He's about as intelligent as he looks but he's been a very, very good centre-half in his time. The best English centre-half of my lifetime I'd say, as much of a tit as he is.

Ramires, Reina, Welbeck (maybe not touted as a top player, but certainly over hyped) Nani, Glen Johnson, Fellaini, Ferdinand. But mostly just Glen Johnson.

I just love the idea of some of the names mentioned as being shite when they are clearly not. Overhyped definitely and also inconsistent but not shite surely.

Nani as an example.He has had some great games,won matches and scored some superb goals ( a la last night v Chelsea) so cant exactly be called shite can he? I know he has some very poor games and isn't a great team player but he aint that bad.

Fellaini shite!Really. Again a little overhyped and I do think limited in what he can do but I sure as hell wouldn't like to mark him and much prefer it when he doesn't play against us.

Welbeck massively overhyped but a really good runner, team player.I think the jury is out on him and he may never make the top top grade but he isn't shite is he?

Fair point. I must admit that some of those named are not shite, and fit more into the hugely over hyped category. But I'm sticking to my guns with Glen fucking Johnson.

I did. I can't think of one single performance for spurs where I thought he was a top player with great talent. I'm really glad we didn't waste a chunk of oil money on him

He may be overrated by some, overpriced & not 'world class', but he most certainly is not shite, you muppet. He's a very good midfielder.
