Until our colossal loss of form he was the best player in the PL by far. In the first half of the season HE was the reason we were sitting in 2nd place comfortably. He is one of the top 5 offensive players in the PL without a doubt, but I would hardly call him overrated.Ben wrote:The majority of people here were mentioning about him for player of the season so it's not as if he's not talked about.

When Milner was playing week in week out at the middle of the park for Villa under O'neill he was quality. Now he's gone to City and hardly gets a game he gone proper downhill in my opinion.

Just stop digging.
Coming from you?!?
Just because I don't have the greatest reputation doesn't make his logic shit.
Eh? From what i've read, you said Arshavin is overrated. Then he said Arshavin is called shit by most people despite getting a lot of goals/assists, so he doesn't see how he can be overrated when he is hardly rated in the first place.
The goals/assists part of his post wasn't even the main point he was making, well that's what I read anyway.
His logic/reasoning isn't shit, you just sort of misunderstood the main point. I think anyway...
Thank you Arsenallap

He has a bit of a point when he says it.luke. wrote:Tell me you didn't just say Piqué is overrated?
Pique is a brilliant defender and I'm not trying to derail what he has done at Barcelona but some people talk about him like he is the best defenders in the world. He is not the best in the world and Puyol is the better of the two in the Barcelona CB partnership.
Like I say he is still a very good defender and with some improvement he could possibly end up being the best defender in the world but at the moment he is not.

He's one of the best defenders in the world.. If not the best.

You have just proved my point. Like I say he is a top defender and while I slightly agree that he is one of the best, he is definitely not the best in the world.luke. wrote:He's one of the best defenders in the world.. If not the best.
There are several defenders who are better than him, and a few that are maybe better than him.

He's one of the best in the world, that's what people say, I don't hear everyone say he's THE best, he's not overrated.

Seriously though, Pique isn't overrated.

I wouldn't say that Pique is criminally overrated like several British players including John Terry, Gareth Barry, Charlie Adam, Scott Parker and Gareth Bale are but he is still slightly overrated by a select few who call him the best defender in the world.

Imo, in terms of bringing the ball out of the defence, Pique's the best at that. He's one of the best overall defenders in the world. Dont see how he's overrated at all.

Well, he is one of the best defenders in the world, so I'm not surprised some people think that.. doesn't really make him overrated when the majority just say "he's one of the best".

Piqué is better than 99% of the world's defenders.

He's very good at that and I'm not trying to derail him as a defender, because I do think that he is a very good one but I think that Vidic, Puyol and Silva are better and I don't think he is the best defender in the world, unlike some people have said.Danny wrote:Imo, in terms of bringing the ball out of the defence, Pique's the best at that.

Pique is definitely inside the top 10 and maybe inside the top 5, so that would check out I guess.

Because people are always raving on about how good Gareth Barry is.

Around here nobody rates Barry but the media do. Remember when people were really worried about Barry being injured before the start of the World Cup last season.Zzonked wrote:cheesy wrote:I wouldn't say that Pique is criminally overrated like several British players including John Terry, Gareth Barry, Charlie Adam, Scott Parker and Gareth Bale are but he is still slightly overrated by a select few who call him the best defender in the world.
