    He scored 4 in his first season in the championship and really struggled. He was actually close to quitting. Last season he adjusted and scored 16 and was superb so now he has had a year in the Prem more goals should flow next season. He has proved he is good enough he just need abit more composure in front of goal.

    He has 8 assists and 4 goals which isn't too bad going for him when has hasnt started every week

    I mentioned Howard. He's been ****ing abysmal, just as I called at the start of the season

    I searched for a similar quote but it turns out you've never actually backed Everton

    Hmmm. Tough one as do you pick players who have had a few bad games and never played again ir just consistently bad players. Whereas shaw has been a major 30m flop he hasnt actually been bad to the effect that hes been costing united goals. Someone like paulinho who is **** anyway (from last year) so never plays for spurs except as a sub hasnt really underachieved since we all knows hes ****.

    Here's my list of most shocking premiership pros who play regularly and have been poor this year

    Allan mcgregor such a clown
    Simpson Lovren williamson konchesky
    Huddlestone cabella barkley
    Balotelli rivierre soldado

    My overrated 11. Players people think are good but i think are rubbish or have been **** this year but is a big name

    Schezny
    Johnson (i know pool fans think hes crap but loads of other fans dont) kompany vertonghen shaw
    Barkley oscar di maria mirallas (screwed me bad in ff) lallana
    Falcao

    All good shouts. I'd forgive distinctive as he is old man time

    Howard for sure is a good call

    Lallana at 25million big ones is a great shout.

    He played like he was worth 2.5mil

    Ozil has been gash

    Di Maria too.

    Apart from Sterling has scored more goals.. & has more assists, completed more dribbles then yeah <whistle>

    And Moreno has been pants.. but he cost a fraction of Shaw and has managed to stay fit for more than 5 minutes <ok>

    Shaw has been injured far too much but he's never had a bad game when fit. Too many OK games and only a handful of good games, most notably Chelsea away, but no bad games. No chance he should be in a worst XI, particularly if Moreno's awfulness is overlooked because he's managed to stay fit (to be awful). Mantequilla's got to be worth a shout. So **** that Del Boy Brent had to play Can as a right back/right sided centre half and wouldn't even pick him ahead of Johnson when Can was unavailable. Terrible player.

    More assists eh? Probably want to go check that one. Unless Sterlings changed his name to Fabregas?

    Balotelli, Lovren, Shaw, Di Maria, Falcao, Cuadrado, and Mangala are all 100% in this dogshit side of the season.

    Ozil has been one of Arsenals best players <laugh>

    Anyone still banging on about Ozil not doing well enough clearly doesn't watch him play!

    Look I can see why a fan would like him but he's a pretty god awful footballer. Couldn't finish his dinner.

    If you stay in this league another season or two he'll be gone.

    Wes Morgan was also very close <ok>

    Mangala is a decent shout. Thought about Fernando.

    Shaw has been injured a lot so a bit unfair.

    Howard and Rio good shouts.

    Di maria has disappointed by his standards but not enough to be in a worst XI IMO.

    EDIT: How ****e Hull have been has sort of gone without much fuss this year... Looked good in the summer for them keeping Huddlestone, signings Gaston Ramirez and Ben Arfa for a bit. Diame too.

    If it is really the worst players in the prem then it's the players in the relegation sides

    Expectation v performance is what I'd base it on

    don't worry about it... i'd worry more about getting that great honking hook out of your gob that you just bit on.

    Really? Based his inclusion off when we played yous, handful times I saw Sunderland and he seemed more central... and didn't want to include Adam Johnson <laugh> Plus he's someone other fans know + has a bit of expectation.

    There's got to be a Sunderland player in there cos of how awful you were... who would you suggest?

    Lallana and Lovren certainly go into it.
