    Jesse Lingard has started a clothing label called Jlingz. It takes a Kanye level of arrogance to think people want to buy clothes with your name on it, and this guy's no Kanye.

    Jlingz, what a stupid **** name, clearly over rates himself so it's thumbs down to you Jlingz.

    Not a real answer to the question but I got to vent about Jlingz. Dear oh dear.

    Don't you have to be rated to be over-rated?

    If the metric is -EV for the clubs who shelled out in transfer fees and wages then I guess Andy Carroll would be up there.

    As a Villa fan it pains me to say this, but:
    Jack Grealish

    You need to have be following football for a while to remember this chap.

    Clue - Here he is wondering what to do with the ball. It's a 1/10 shot he passed it backwards or sideways.

    As a villa fan I have to say this is nonsense... the guy is a f1 car working in a taxi rank.

    Only Kevin de Bryune has creted more chances in the prem this season and he has done it in a relegation battling team. He is class and could play for the top 4

    Graeme Souness explains truth behind Premier League's "worst ever player"



    Souness signed 'George Weah's cousin' on a one-month contract during his time managing Southampton but the move backfired when it turned out the player was no relation to the striker at all

    Graeme Souness has explained how he was forced to play the infamous Ali Dia for Southampton despite knowing he was "hopeless".
    In a story that has since gone down in football folklore, Dia had earned himself a trial with the Saints back in 1996.

    The forward had been offered the opportunity after pretending to be a relative of AC Milan's FIFA world player of the year George Weah, which was completely untrue.
    Souness was in charge at The Dell, and is often reminded of the curious case of Dia, who he brought off the bench in a Premier League clash with Leeds in place of an injured Matt Le Tissier after 32 minutes.
    "It's a great story, and it's a funny story. It's not quite what you read or hear," Souness recalled to Sky Sports

    I know. He is a Rangers legend, so fits the bill in my book for over-rated.

    But apart from Rangers (Scotland) and Pompey (2nd Division) where did ever have anything approaching a decent scoring rate for a striker?

    Yet the guy has played for AC Milan and Monaco, had at least 3 £1M+ transfers (big bucks back in the day) and managed to win 32 England Caps.

    Neymar for me.

    He has talent. But always seeking to complain about his team-mates and whichever club is paying him squillions.

    Christiano Ronaldo. The GOAT? Don't make me laugh. Goes missing in the big games and bullies the smaller clubs. Used to be able to take a good free kick but only one goal from a free kick for Juve in almost 2 seasons suggests even that has gone
