Overrated modern day players

Somehow, someone played £80 mill for Harry Maguire and thought they were clever.

Coutinho - 142m

Lamine Yamal. Undoubtedly a very good player, but you'd think he was in Messi's class the fuss made of him.

Mbappe people go on like he’s the new massive superstar but not even close to the level of Messi or Ronaldo for me. to be fair they are generational talents tho.

Not having Bruno Fernandes, he’s quality

Jordan Horrenderson on the other hand …

Isak. Never really got the massive hype about him. He's not a bad finisher but the rest of his game is a bit meh. Watched a few games when he was at Newcastle and never knew he was even on the pitch. They paid at least 75m over the odds for him.

Savinho of Man City, a supposedly Brazilian international winger who can't beat a man, complete a cross or score goals!!! I think City paid £30 million and yet Spurs were then prepared to buy him off City for £50 million. The world's gone mad I'll tell thee!!

Theo Walcott was a bit crap really.

He is,but seems to missing in a lot of 'big' games.

I'm fairly sure I remember reading Dele Ali had better numbers at a similar age, he is massively overrated imo.

Neymar
Heir to Ronaldo and Messi. Probably on a level with Robinho

He carries that team.

He also hasn't got the massive reputation of certain players, so i couldn't class him as overrated.

Illiman Ndaiye

Take note lurkers, don’t urge your club to buy him if I were you

Vini Jnr, it's not like he sucks or anything, he's just nowhere near as good as he thinks he is.

If England lined up against Brazil i would not be worrying that much about him, certainly not like i would over previous Brazilian greats

His bad attitude is overhyped imo, the recent thing about him storming off was seemingly made up nonsense, to this day no one can provide any evidence of him getting mad at being subbed. The TV cameras show him calmly walking off, zero attitude.

Tuchel didn't see it, no tv cameras or mobile phones captured it. I've seen people say the entire story came about from one BS comment from a Daily Mail journalist, although i don't know how accurate that claim is.

Also his attitude can't be that bad because his work rate is consistently great for Madrid.
