Manchester City and England's <a href=Gareth Barry and Joloen Lescott” width=”300″ height=”213″ />Every week Sky Sports keep telling us just how good the Premier League is, how it’s the best league in the world and they create plenty of hype around the English game. However there’s a reason why Super Sunday isn’t always that super and that’s because some of the players we’re constantly being told are the best to ever grace the game are no more than a decent footballers. Give Lionel Messi praise and Cristiano Ronaldo when he stays on his feet, but keep the use of the term ‘legend’ to a minimum. Every club has players that some fans think are the bee’s knees while other supporters would rather they were shipped out the door at the earliest opportunity. Here are ten of the most overrated players in the Premier League – good, but not great:

    What a waste of web space and utter nonsense. Nani overrated? Don’t talk utter crap. I don’t know anyone who rates him, so how can he be overrated? Yet you include Crouch, who is possibly one of the most underrated players in the PL> You don’t include Rooney – who for the last 8 months has been the most overhyped failure, not just in England, but in Europe. However, you manage to squeeze in three Man City players. Methinks this joke of an article was written by a Rag (with a token Nani thrown in). No Rio Ferdinand? Possibly THE most overrated footballer in the last ten years.
