Mafiabob Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Overrated.... Russell, even though I don't mind him. Underrated... Hendrick... By a lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bris Vegas Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 I've read a few forums, and from what I can gather: Ince is overrated - often labelled our dangerman. Weimann is often rated as a quality player, I genuinely don't see it but perhaps that's just me. Russell perhaps too. Carson and Keogh are vastly underrated - both are often labelled donkeys. Bradley Johnson too. Seen numerous mentions how he's just a carthorse of a midfielder who is worth absolutely nowhere near the amount we paid for him. In fact, there were a few great quotes on the Sheff Wed forum. One member said our midfield was rubbish, and there isn't one of them he'd have in his team over the likes of Bannan and Hutchinson That particular poster blasted our transfer committee as their midfield allegedly cost them next to nowt. Grant gets mixed views. Seen some call him a great goalkeeper, while others call him a donkey too. One of my mates is a big Reading fan and he backs Derby to win the league this season, but there are a few players he thinks are questionable - with Carson being the first!

MuespachRam Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Over rated.....I would definitely go for George Thorne. He is a decent player, no doubt, but the position he plays is the easiest one in the history of football, I would throw Keogh and Bryson in on this group too, very over rated both of them. Under rated....this is harder as the majority of fans talk about us like we are a cross between Real Madrid, Barca and Bayern, but I would say that maybe Warnock is under rated, very steady player, the same could be said about Baird.

eddie Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Over-rated - Johnny Russell. He hurt my leg at Burton as I valiantly prevented his shot during pre-game practice from smashing into the Memsahib. Did I get a free shirt? Not a chance. Under-rated - Stephen Warnock, although some of you are now beginning to recognise his contribution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Underrated: Warnock, Baird Hendrick is a mixture of both, vastly overrated by some yet he's not absolute garbage like others have made out. Martin can be both too, as well as Keogh. The only player I think has been consistently brilliant is Jason Shackell. And interesting, I've not heard much about him being this, that or the other and neither have I seen any complaints. He's probably the least mentioned player on the forum, surprises me somewhat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's hardly got a MOTM this season but has been above average every game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadioactiveWaste Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Under: Baird, Butterfield. Over: Johnson,he is good, and he is the type we've missed the last couple of years, but he's getting some credit that should go for getting the right type as well as the right man.

Alph Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Hendrick definitely fits in both. Some people think he's PL class. Some think he's a pointless waste of a shirt. Martin possibly? He probably wouldn't be as good for any other team as for us because here he fits perfectly. Couldn't walk into just any team. Shackell possibly underrated? Butterfield too. The most overrated is Russell by miles. I like him but he gets away with some terrible stuff by being enthusiastic and energetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kamikaze Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Yes, plus I believe his value has dropped Since he burst onto the scene (now with a serious injury) he may UNFORTUNATELY never be the phenom some expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
