That's not the same to be fair, he was over priced for sure but never really talked about and raised to be something he wasn't as most of the players in this thread have been.
shrek is a classic case of this, the media and England management have wanked themselves silly over the ugly granny shagging toss pot
I actually thought that SwP wasn't rated highly enough by people outside of City.
He was class for us first time round, our best player when playing on the right, in the middle or up front, should have been in the England squad, but as said above he wasn't rated as highly as he should have been, you needed to play for the big 4 back then as the media where having a love in with them cunts. (The move to chavski ruined him).
This was a case of a big club actually ruining an excellent prospect's progression. We get accused of it because jack Rodwell was perennially injured, but swp was rarely injured. He just wasn't a Mourinho player.
Then again neither was de Bruyne or mata.
IIRC he got off to a good start, for both Chelsea and England?
Hate to say it but he should have gone to arsenal. We weren't big enough for him and Chelsea was the wrong move for him
