    For what it's worth, I wasn't a fan of hers either, but I believe the criteria involved professional football. And don't tell me she was a retired ex-Macedonian Women's international. :)

    I always thought Giggs was a nothing more than a good player, playing in a great team - and the idea of him being a successful ManU manager is daft, IMO. And he shagged his bothers` old lady - how dignified !

    Same here. One footed. Not World Class. Not really a game changer at International level either, unless playing against a lowly team. Long service medals only.

    Milner
    Henderson
    Courtinho
    Can
    Allen
    Benteke
    Firmino
    Sturridge

    Yep, that's about it.

    Welbeck, you can chase the ball, but a striker scored goals.
    Terry, he's good at what he does, but the mans a massive twat "my opinion getting in the way".
    Sorry

    Can't decide between Beckham, Wilshere, Pedro, Balotelli.

    Personality? Beckham was over-rated as a player without any doubt. He was good, but world class? Yet as a bloke I find myself reluctantly admiring things he does, particularly his charity work, so would exempt him from the over-rated list.

    I'm confused. I was told its personality. There's a whole heap to go in the player pile.

    Oh, I was mixing it up. If it's just personality then Becks gets nowhere near - that's a completely different kettle of fish (and makes it a lot easier).

    It's not specifically personality, it's just who you think does not deserve the accolades or recognition that they recieve, for whatever reason.

    Most over-rated chairman. That's easy, Milan Mandaric. Sure, he took PFC to the EPL but any money he spent on the club he more than recovered. In addition he did nothing to improve the infra-structure
    Over-rated footballer ... Karim Benzema .. he cannot do what Messi, Suarez and Neymar can do... beat 4 or 5 defenders before scoring.
    Over-rated football personality ...... the ex-manager of Leicester, Blackpool, ... Hollaway (spelling)
    Over-rated fans ....????

    I think he presents some BBC shown games, that Jake Humphrey guy. About as much use as Anne Franks drum set, no Football knowledge what so ever. He annoys the life out of me!
