    If you haven't seen someone play, then there's absolutely no way you can give an informed opinion

    Also, if you have seen Baggio play and think he was overrated, then you know absolutely sweet fa about football

    Robert Snodgrass especially on here. He's the definition of a mediocre winger, he's incredibly limited. Has been so poor for West Ham so far too.

    So I know nothing about football because I think Roberto Baggio was bit overrated? I like Baggio but I feel he was a bit overhyped ya know. I don't think he was * or bad or mediocre.

    Well no because I was talking about people who had actually seen him play.

    Just look up all the accolades that Baggio has won, that and his scoring record should speak for itself.

    Beckham's all right. Not world class, but was definitely a cut above most English players. I think a lot of people react negatively to him because of his media and modelling work (Brand Beckham).

    Aye I'm guilty of it. The more I watch him the more average I think he is.

    Far too slow.

    I only remember Baggio from his time at Brecia near the end of his career.

    Remember watching him tear it up in his late 30's on British Eurosport back when they showed Serie A.

    He went to them for around 4 years and they were newcomers to the league when he arrived. Ended up leaving with 45 goals in 95 games. Some of the best form of his career.
