Football Is Fred our most under rated player?

Can’t think of a player in recent times who consistently gives 7 or 8 out of 10 week in week out who never gets any credit for it.

Credit where its due he is doing very well, bet he is annoying as £#%&! to play against.

Busy little bastard gets all over the place, passing can let him down at times but he certainly reliable and gives us options.

Gets around the pitch well and good energy but his passing is shit and his shooting is abysmal.

I think so

Great energy around the pitch and links up well with Bruno

But also thought he was pretty crap last night.

If he had a fashionable name like Kante or Gattuso he would receive more credit.

Has an engine on him and despite his passing we miss him when he doesn’t play.

Great fitness, pretty dogshit player.....

Gives the ball away a lot and his passing at times is awful...

Seems a nice bloke.

Can’t grasp how a professional footballer at this level can’t shoot at all?

Yes, but I think a lot of our players suffer from that, they’re either wildly overrated or underrated there seems to be no middle ground with some, not sure why that is

Especially on social, where there’s this weird fandom over individual players as opposed to the club overall, maybe it’s to do with the ages of the newer generation of kids coming up? Who knows either way it’s incredibly annoying

This.. busy little @#%&! and is very effective at breaking up attacks, but his passing is utterly atrocious. If he could pass he'd be a starter every game imo.

Our midfield is bizarre. Pogba and Bruno are the standout talents but I don't know how well they fit with matic fred or The Scottish Player. No idea what the best combo is but maybe that's how ole likes it, they're basically all interchangeable

I don’t think he’s under or over rated.

He does an important job and compliments the better players. I like his character. He’s come back from looking entirely hopeless, to being a useful member of the team, when lesser characters would have sulked off.

He’s tenacious, a decent tackler and has a good engine and work rate.

He is, however, very limited on the ball and it’s an area of the pitch where we could significantly upgrade.

He cost far too much as well.

he's Brazilian and cost us a fair wedge of money. Can't shoot, can barely pass and loves losing the ball.

I'm not sure he's that underrated

One of my favourite players though. We're better with him in the team.

His passing isn't always great but he at least shows for the ball - much to the dismay of his teammates.

Taken him a while to get where he is. Does a lot right.

I'm not sure there's all that many players available who could fit straight into the team and do a better job. That's why an upgrade would be massive for us.

Would deffo keep good old Fred around though.

I think that every game being available to watch live has changed how people perceive things. There were a lot of players in the 80s and 90s for example who have a cult hero status because they looked amazing in compilations but if they were around now their inconsistency would be hammered all the time. The flipside is there are players now who get hammered for below par stats and inconsistency who would have been hugely rated in the days where you only saw their best bits via highlights.

Once he gets the snide foul aspect to his game down he'll be sorted because he can't do much else.

Remember his free kicks?

Was embarrassed for him last night watching him get bulldozed by Loftus Cheek on multiple occasions.

Fred also knocked him over a few times, far more embarrassing for RLC tbh.
