It’s important to note that opinions on overrated players can vary, and assessments may change over time. The 2023-2024 Premier League season is now in the past, and opinions on player performance can be subjective. That being said, as of my last knowledge update in January 2023, I can provide some players who, at times, have been considered by some as overrated during that season. Keep in mind that these opinions may not be universally shared:
Jesse Lingard (Manchester United):
Lingard faced criticism for his inconsistent performances and lack of impact in the 2023-2024 season.
Nicolas Pepe (Arsenal):
While Pepe showed flashes of talent, his performances were inconsistent compared to the expectations that came with his high transfer fee.
Dele Alli (Tottenham Hotspur):
Alli struggled to maintain the form that had previously made him a standout player for Spurs, leading to questions about his consistency.
Paul Pogba (Manchester United):
Pogba, due to his high-profile status and occasional lackluster performances, was often a topic of debate regarding his impact on Manchester United’s midfield.
Joelinton (Newcastle United):
The Brazilian striker struggled to live up to the club-record transfer fee paid for him, facing criticism for his goal-scoring record during the 2023-2024 season.
It’s important to remember that player opinions can change from season to season, and individuals may have different perspectives on a player’s contribution to their team.
