For me it has got to be Eric cantona closely followed by peter schmeichel and raul! cantona was good but not in the same league as zidane, ronaldinho, henry, ronaldo, kaka, le tissier etc. schmeichel was also good but very overrated for instance his massive frame some what made up for his pool positioning but not completely and he would get lobbed every 3 games! and raul has a good goal scoring record but not one like shearer. I guess this is all because with a massive fan base u get massive hype! What do u think?
His goal record puts Henry's to shame, so as a striker anyone under Shevchenko's goal talley is also 'overrated'... logically that would be correct, no? Thought not.

The only example of him playing well For Chelsea was on monday when he scored that amazing goal. apart from poking in the odd goal what else has he done for the blues?
<div class="quote_poster">Wolf2k7 Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">scored almost as many as wayne rooney?</div> suppose but Rooneys having a bad season as is shevchenko. IMO if he stays at chelsea he will have a better season next year

Schmeichel was the best keeper of our generation IMO to call him Overated just because he let in a few silly goals is ridiculous
What he said about Raul and Shearer means his debate is null and void. Thats like saying every striker is overrated. If he actually watched Football then maybe he would see how great Raul, Big Pete and Cantona where.

<div class="quote_poster">Flight643 Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">Might aswell say every footballer other than Shearer is overrated.</div> lol don't forget some other newcastle players. Given and owen lol
Pele... This guy scored deflected goals and people say "Pele was the best" but Maradona ripped 6 or 7 England players apart and scored and carried Napoli himself and people still say Pele was better and rate him 2nd best ever or 3rd.
<div class="quote_poster">Flight643 Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">George Best is all that matters.</div> those three are the 3 best ever in this order 1st)Pele 2nd)Best 3rd)maradona Thats just my opinion though
