Players we've never quite made our minds up about

[Kvarme Ate My Food]

We all know who the undoubted greats are, and indeed the undoubted flops. But there are quite a number of players who divide opinion considerably. Reckon we can put together a definitive list?

 

I'll start with Luis Garcia, Danny Murphy, Jamie Redknapp.

[RedHarvest]

Michael Owen

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

Luis & Danny = great.

 

Redknapp, was never convinced even in the 90s. Always thought he was vastly overrated

Vladi was one, defo

Listing these would seem the best starting point.

[magneto]

Steve Staunton

Paul Ince

[Bailo]

Titi Camara. Cult hero, played after his Dad died, but he was actually gash wasn't he?

Definitely, just mention his name on here and the thread is hijacked into a "overated greedy gobsh*te" / "better than Kenny" debate.

 

Obviously, he is the former...

[drdooom]

Westerveld. Not a great but improvement on what came before?

[Kvarme Ate My Food]

Riise. Mostly reviled on here, but you still meet plenty of Reds who think he was boss until his last season.

skippy was the man. don't be treading on dangerous ground here.....

[theredfella]

Vegard Heggem

[FirstDescent]

Heggem and Jones, both highly rated rb's but both careers cut short cause of injuries. I cant remember much of Jones early years, but Heggems time here was go, stop, go... never knowing if he really hit his peak.
