BroadstairsR 2,138 Posted August 6, 2022 Billy Gilmour appears to be paying heavily (very) for the sins of others. Still a target for the venomous, even though he's been away on his wee bike for some time now. I can't think of one single positive that he brought to our club on the field of play last season, but I still hope that the youngster has a better one in the pipeline and eventually manages to realize his potential. That last season can't have been much fun for him and clearly set back his development. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

king canary 7,578 Posted August 8, 2022 I'm getting the impression here that a lot of people aren't getting what 'overrated' means. For example nobody ever rated Koroma, Elmander or Thorne in a Norwich shirt. Gilmour was/is overrated by everyone who isn't a Norwich fan but not by us. For someone to be overrated by our fans it means people actually have to think they are good in the first place. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

urdie_Canary 33 Posted August 8, 2022 Russel Martin, **** poor defender, never closed down a cross.. but he was a nice bloke. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hertfordyellow 460 Posted August 8, 2022 Cedric Anselin might be worth a mention. Great bloke, had his issues but never had a period of consistent performances. I've talked to a few people who remember him being good, I certainly don't. Simon Lappin (sorry). Apart from League 1, he didn't really play and he kind of dined out on that Luton freekick for a long time. Nice guy though. Some people see him as good servant, probably a good pro but stayed around way too long considering he wasn't playing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

See, for me the absolute overwhelming global love-in about Gilmour is enough to nominate him above all others. There isn't one person outside of Norfolk that wasn't telling us he was an absolute champion and we should be so lucky. It's difficult to say from simply 'within Norwich fans' as everyone has their favourites. Lukas Rupp had an appreciation society, there are those that think Tzolis is the second coming. We generally find out in post that players were crap and we were blinkered to The only real example I can think of that properly fulfills the criteria is Cody Mac (I myself thought he was going to be the next Ian Wright. I was young) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thingy 36 Posted August 8, 2022 I agree about Gilmour, RVW, Leroy Fer, Howson, Normann. At the top of the list I'd put Russel Martin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoolahoop14 124 Posted August 8, 2022 Really surprised to see people saying Howson… arguably the best central midfielder we’ve had this century. Some weird replies to this thread in general, lots of people saying names that have never been rated by fans, let alone overrated! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Drazen Muzinic 1,444 Posted August 8, 2022 I was looking at those massive player murals on Saturday and thought they could become a bit embarrassing if those guys end up with the reputation of RVW. Afterall, he would've been up there in 2011, wouldn't he? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
