Most Over Rated Players

Is Over rated one word?
Anyway, we have had a lot negative threads recently and it will get worse this week i'm sure. So here is a bit of a light hearted one.
I'm not talking about poor player, i'm talking about players the media and lots of people hype up but really aren't as good as the media would have you believe.
I'm talking about players like Rooney. A very good player and capable of some excellent things, but the way the media cream over everything he does makes him over rated.
Joe Hart is another, a good goal keeper and could have the ability to become great, but not there yet, not the best keeper in the prem and probably not the best english keeper either yet despite the media telling you he is.
Scott Parker a tenacious midfielder and never stops trying. You can't fault his effort, but in reality his passing is limited and as much as i like him as a player he isn't as good as people make out.
There is three to get you started.
Only rule is you can't choose any West Ham players otherwise it will just become another boring argument thread.
Play nice.

...this is after only playing 4 times (according to wiki) in the last 2 seasons. If getting into the national without even needing to play games isn't being overrated then I don't know what is.

I see Huddlestone won another cap last night. Embarrassing.

Roy Race - anyone can score literally thousands of goals in a fictional league where you never have to retire/age.

I think Ibrahimovic is a fantastic player. Regularly scores goals but do agree that he doesn't always do himself justice

Daren Bent - not exactly overrated but a lot of clubs have paid a lot of money for him.
I know he scores his fair share of goals, but that is exactly why I think he is overrated as I just don't understand how! He scores a lot, but he is utter, utter dogshit. It totally baffles me!

Overrated young player... Wilfiried Zaha.
As far as I'm concerned he's no better than Zavon Hines. Quick feet, a cocky attitude, but very little final product.
I know he's young and he could kick on yet. But I don't see what everyone's creaming themselves over.

Interesting list of players that Tex….
Benni McCarthy... Apps 447 Goals 189 - Apps for WHU 11 Goals 0
Freddi Ljungberg... Apps 437 Goals 74 - App for WHU 25 Goals 2
Rebrov... Apps 489 Goals 166 - App for WHU 27 Goals 1
Davor Suker... Apps 512 Goals 252 - App for WHU 11 Goals 2
Titi Camara... Apps 335 Goals 93 - App for WHU 11 Goals 0
So looking by those STATS I’d say they were very good players for both their clubs and countries…. Just not OUR club…. Funny that eh???

I see people are ignoring the "don't pick West Ham players" element to this thread.
I always thought Eric Cantona was a bit over rated.
