Most over rated player in world football

It was an odd decision on Schmeichel's part to race out of his goal like that, high risk stuff

When you do that you're leaving yourself open to getting nudged and Seville is or was the worst place in the world for hometown decisions

I don't think you see goalkeepers rushing out like that at corners as much these days

Well I can think of one time he was lobbed but I wouldn't massively blame him for that, it was a sublime finish

Which are?

Here's one:

Kenwyne Jones :  'He's unplayable''

There's a case for Pele alright. You see any player can be really deemed overrated as it simply means held in a greater regard than you agree with. Nobody would say any of the lads mentioned seriously was sh*t, or anything like it. The case I would make for Pele being overrated, for example, is that he isn't the greatest player of all time and those of a much older vintage in Brazil didn't consider him even the greatest Brazilian of all time, so they must agree that he was overrated. 

He was also brilliant and one of the best ever, but possibly overrated. 

I mean, I disagree with Het-field about Schmeichel, but he puts forward a very strong and well-made argument. 

One against Liverpool at Anfield in March '93 at the Kop end, that was a key game for Manchester United that year

Unbelievable saves in the Euro '92 final and saving van Basten's penalty

The penalty save from Bergkamp in the last minute at Villa Park in the FA Cup semi-final

He was a big game goalkeeper

For a similar reason I'd always rate Didier Drogba very highly at the other end of the pitch, higher than others who are generally rated ahead of him like Henry and Zlatan

He had a massive presence which rattled oppositions and lifted his team mates 

That Champions League win was almost single handedly down to him, he was completely unstoppable in the last few months of that 2011/12 season

Meh

Penalty saves are very big things

Oliver Kahn was a great goalkeeper too but he did not dominate his area for the goals in 1999 and also cost Germany the 2002 World Cup final

I think you're picking holes for the sake of it

Schmeichel was a phenomenal goalkeeper, I certainly can't think of anybody in his era I'd rather have had keeping goal for my team

I would actually say that the mistakes you can pick out by Schmeichel are largely down to the exact thing that made him so good - his ultra confidence in himself that he would totally dominate his own box

Sure it went wrong occasionally but it was the essential facet that made him great

And he never lost confidence in himself that his way was the right way

Don't agree. The only team he didn't score regularly against was United. And even at that, he scored 8 goals in 14 league games against them. There was a period from 03/04 to 06/07 where he went 5 games without a goal against them. 

The underachievement in the CL is more down to Wenger's failings as a tactical manager IMO, especially in the Invincibles season, when there were no big teams left in the latter stages of the competition.
