  1. I never liked Robinho, he was never that dangerous(surely not as dangerous as he is to women) in the UCL or the league and we way overspent on him.

  2. Hazard is the biggest flop financially wise. But he wasn’t overrated, this man was amazing at Chelsea. I think Jovic was clearly overrated and was 60M€

  3. I have to say it, David Beckham was a little too celebrated not denying how good he was but the compliments he gets by us are more than how well he performed for us.
    PS: overrated means someone who gets a ton of praise when they shouldn’t get it as much, not who is the worst signing or someone known for underperforming.

  4. Beckham. He only won one League with us when he wasn’t even a clear-cut starter.

  5. I want to say Illarramendi came as the next Xabi Alonso. Nuri Sahin that came as the best young player of the bundesliga. But Jovic takes the cake 🙁

    PS these post would be better if we had a year range, like the most overrated between 2010-2020. It’s hard to empirically say the “X” of all time, I can only go back to the early 2000s.

  6. People are talking nonsense, Hazard and Jovic aren’t overrated, everyone considers them flops at Madrid

    I’d say Morata, his output was fantastic and people begged for him to start over KB9. He had a relatively poor first touch and had a habit of missing good chances either by being offside or mishitting the ball

  7. Kaka- “I lost joy of playing football at Real Madrid”

    Broke the transfer record at the time. HIGHLY rated and correctly so but had a blunder unfortunately, he was riddled with injuries. The club and the player tried their best but the fall off was painful to watch. He struggled to fit in but we got to see Ozil (highly underrated).

    James Rodriguez is close imo too but his first season was spectacular and the 80mil hurt lesser.

    On the Jokic voters, I agree if you just look at it financially but that 60 hurt us lesser and his track record except for the 5 goal match was non-existent.

  8. If we are talking about overrated before coming to RM: Clearly Hazard

    If we are talking about overrated as a RM Player, I’d have to go with an unpopular opinion: Bale

    Yes he scored some incredible and very important goals for us. But to me it seems like, people are remembering him much much better and more important because of that, than he actually was.
    He was very expensive, injured many times and did not create and score as many goals as was expected.

    I love Bale, and he was a great player for us. But as we are in the category of overrated, some here are giving him almost legendary status because of a few very memorable goals.
