    Dont agree with Muller, i think he is going to be a great player in the future. He has only arrived on the scene over the past year or so and he has been brilliant IMO

    I don't think he has been used the right way by Wenger. He will come of age. Fastest player I have seen in the flesh!

    There going to be a lot of debate in this thread, i can sense it :56:

    @Farguhur, VDS has been brilliant for Man U the last few season don't understand how you can say he's over rated... IMO.

    pepe reina before Farquhar has a heart attack i think he is a very good keeper just very overrated he is like cech cant command his area one of the vital points of being a top world class goal keeper Boruc was the same let down badly by this ,

    No doubting he's a top player but I find people think he's much better than what he is. I just can't identify what he is top class at, as he is a good finisher but i wouldn't say he was clinical, He isn't lightning fast, He's no Paddy as far as dribbling is concerned. There will be a lot of pressure on him to live up to his now high expectations.

    I think he will turn in to be an outstanding player but atm he's still a bit rough around the edges imo. Because he scored so many in the world cup everyone's opinion of him changed straight away. Also I think I don't have as high of an opinion of him because everyone said he was Germany's star player in the WC when Ozil ran the show, so it annoyed me a bit.

    I was probably blowing it a bit out of proportion by branding him overrated but I just feel he isn't quite the finished article yet!

    No chance! Although I do love the guy he hasn't made it easy for himself as far as critics are concerned. Have you seen my avatar ahaa:icon_mrgreen:

    He is super fast for a tall lad, he is strong, outstanding dribbling, bullet shot.

    BUT he is very temperamental! He will either turn out like Cassano and throw all his talent away and never grow up or he will calm down like Rooney and turn out to be one of the best players in the world!

    Ohright sorry haha :52::52:

    Bit pointless me posting that now haha!

    And I agree with Mario Gomez he was never worth the money Bayern paid for him! €30mil+ is outrageous for someone of his ability. Although he did have a fantastic couple of seasons with Stuttgart
