Ben Mee and Tarkowski are two excellent defenders.

{Ed001's Note - Tarkowski is a hoofer being carried by Mee. He is positionally dodgy and gives away needless fouls due to being reckless and rash. He is just big, strong and willing to put his body on the line to make up for actually having the ability to read the game.}

Fair Point, i also saw Busquets on the list of overrated players when you did that article, that was a bit surprising given the fact that he is actually very good in linking defense to attack.

{Ed001's Note - he can't defend, can barely run and his main strength is cheating to win fouls and get opponents booked or sent off.}

No John O’Shea, list is void.

How many people on that list nutmeged Figo?

{Ed001's Note - he is retiring mate, so time to retire his place at number 1 on the underrated list.}

Busquets is a shocking player. If he wasn't a la Masia product and filled a home grown spot they'd have got rid years ago. And of course Barcelona are signing his replacement.

The more appropriate response would be to retire underrated lists in John’s honour.

{Ed001's Note - he did ask for them to continue in his honour, to remind people of his greatness.}

Not to make more work ed but ten best/ worst signings?

Busquets is an odious, horrible #### but he’s hardly a shocking player. He’s brilliant at what he does in midfield, he’ll be remembered for the play acting but he’ll also finish his career as one of the most decorated players.

Busquets may be slowing down now, but he is one of the best defensive midfielders to play in the last 20 years.

Anderson won some trophies as well to be fair. He must have been world class as well.

On the hateful list with suarez costa ramos . But a player who plays his role in the team really well. He played his part in that amazing spain and Barcelona team really well.
I don't like him but i have to respect his good stuff.

He won a load of trophies so that means he's great? Or maybe playing in the best club side ever with two of the greatest players ever in front of him in xavi an iniesta actually won the trophies. His entire role was collect the ball off puyol/ pique an pass it to xavi/ iniesta/ rakitic. Hardly world class.

Who said world class he carried his role iut in all the teams he played for to a high level. You don't last add long as he has for barcalona and Spain without diing your job really well. That's what a team us all about.
Not as effective as he was nowadays but he is a very good player who new his limitations and was an integral part of some top class sides and stll is.

Most professional footballers dive onto the ground, They then roll around screaming to get the refs attention before waving hands to the ref implying red card.

This behaviour has stained todays game? The players from the 70s onwards who are pundits must think to themselves!

We played a mans game for pennies. These fairies do more rolls in a game than most bakers on a busy day.

A good read as always ed1. But I was surprised no one from Atalanta made the list. They have been doing great for good few seasons now and have a few good players.

{Ed001's Note - they do, but it is difficult to pick out any one player from them.}

Remo Freuler (spelling) is one who has impressed me a bit but I too agree they are a good collective unit and play as a team rather than 1 outstanding guy carrying the bulk of the load. Also ed1 I have a question about Laporte, why has he not had a France senior cap yet, he has been playing senior level football for best part of last 4_5 yrs yet never seems to get recognised by the France national side. Attitude issue or just not a good fit for Deschamps?

{Ed001's Note - because Deschamps is clueless. They won the World Cup despite him, rather than because of him.}

Ken as I said he's only lasted as long as he has because he came through la Masia. Their production line has slowed a little of late. I'll stick with Ed1s assessment. Overrated. And the replies show that he is overrated.

{Ed001's Note - he would also have been replaced if the club could afford to. It is only their lack of money and the fact the academy does not produce anyone of his type that has saved him. He is one of those players, like Sammy Lee was during Liverpool's glory years, that is winning because he is part of a great team, but if you put him in a lesser team he would not stand out.}

Exactly Ed. Although I expect de Jong to push him out once he settles.

{Ed001's Note - that is what he has been bought for.}

Dejong is a lovely footballer.
