    For me it's Carlos Cuellar, just seen an article on the BBC saying he's targeting a place in the Spanish squad and in some of the papers it says he's one of the players nominated for POTY.

    Everytime I've seen him play - and to be fair, I don't watch all Rangers games - he's always been dodgy, especially in Europe. I always hear the commentators say "Uncharacteristic mistake by Cuellar there" sure if you're saying that almost every game it isn't uncharacteristic!!

    Anyway what's everyone elses thoughts?

    Barry Ferguson, hands down!!!

    Alan McGregor is also prety overrated by a good few people, he is just as bad as Rab Douglas!

    I think Cuellar is alright actually not a bad defender..

    Fletcher at Hibs or Riordan for me..

    Barry Ferguson, not to say he isn't a decent player as he is but he's not what he's made out to be not by a country mile. He's yet to put in a dictating and dominant performance at International or European level and he's 30.

    ferguson lost it a few years ago after he went down south and had all those injuries, thought he was pretty good before that. cuellar is decent but he's never getting in the spain squad, playing against james grady is making him think he's better than he is

    I see a lot of huns players mentioned but not one shout for the guy who really is the most overated of the lot and how he is valued at £3 million by Fulham is beyond a joke..

    31 year old Daniel Cousin..

    If we're going for players they've sold/try to sell, there's a £9 million misfit currently in the guise of a right back, that genuinely cannot defend for toffee, making a living down in London on the back of half a good season in the SPL and that can't run more than 20 yards without falling over.

    Darcheville is so bad...he misses sitters so often. His sitter against Lyon was hillarious.

    But also McGregor - very overated indeed.
