Your personal feel towards them, let’s try not to judge too much. Mine is Alan Shearer, while a PL legend I think people like to fit him in with actual world class strikers…feel like he was good, but played in a very weak PL era. Might be top 2 in the PL but very far behind if we consider the world

    I know you said not to judge but Shearer being overrated is lunacy. The guys was fast, strong, could head it in, fire from distance, just an all round top baller. I honestly think he would cut it in the modern game and i think you have a bias because he played for newcastle and looked quite ordinary.

    For me it’s Rashford. I feel like he had such an explosive start to his career and has never seemed to push on from his potential. A somewhat decent player on his day but imo is no where near the level for international football or playing for a top 4 side

      Was coming to say Rashford but take my upvote instead lol but yeah, you’re right. He had an explosive start I remember thinking Man United have found another one but… Yeah. Just seems to only play when he’s feeling it and even then it’s few and far between. Definitely shouldn’t be in a top 4 team.

        That’s the thing with him isnt it. For me, there definitely is top 4-6 quality in Rashford yet he is so inconsistent. No one would put him alongside the greats like Rooney, v. Persie, Ronaldo but I still feel he would have a place alongside such players if he would be the only one in his position.
