i do have a dislike for the english players, mainly due to their arrogance, and their work rate ethos, or lack of it. Most of them are vastly overrated, especially the likes of ashley cole, it infuriates me with rage when a ignorant english fan claims hes the best left back in the world, personally i rate sorin and maldini higher, obviously when it comes to best left back, its zambo, hands down.
the likes of defoe is overrated, i mean ok he has pace, but thats about it.
joe cole is overrated, just cause he can do some step overs doesnt make him that brilliant.
lampard is a little overrated, if i personally had to choose 2 central midfielders he certainly wudnt even make my subs bench, i mean all he really do is just smack the back when he gets it, hes not like riquelme who is undoubtedly one of the best distributors of the ball, and the same goes for gerrard, he only ever seems to go for glory, i guess maybe its because im too used to the high standards of the players serie A posses with the likes of kaka.
and you know who really is overrated? theo walcott, he played a handful of games for southampton in the championship division - 1 below the epl, wasnt at all that great in his performances, won him a ludacrusly expensive move to arsenal, hasnt played a minute for them since, and all of a sudden earns a move to the world cup, and is already hailed by sven as the new pele, well to me pele is pele nobody cud match him, like nobody cud match maradona, but walcott has proven nothing, and when i do see him play, he looks so ordinary, not even worthy of a 2nd look.
