Gotta be Modric, spent 4 seasons in the premier league and I don't really think anyone knew how good he was.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
100% he has always been under rated. Fact no 1 mentions him here is another testament to that.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Modric is one of those players that EVERYONE repeats how underrated he is that I actually think he might be the most overrated player of my lifetime. He's an outstanding player with brilliant technique, control and balance. Everyone knows how good he is.
I honestly hated us playing against Dembele more than I hated us playing against Modric. We almost always controlled the Spurs midfield in the Modric era, but Dembele often stamped his authority on the game not just with his technical qualities, but his physicality and aggression. Always though Dembele at his best was the best CM in the league. Underrated player.
For Arsenal, I'd say it's to our eternal regret we never saw what Rosicky and Diaby could become due to being such sicknotes. Almost happened to Van Persie too who was always injured early in his Arsenal career, but had a good half-decade run in Arsenal and Man U.
Yeah, never feared playing modric when he was here, although he was quality under redknapp. Dembele was much more of a problem for us, and of course whichever spurs player decided to get the goal of their career against us.

Sort of agree with this, but he’s elite level midfielder, still is at 37, he’s that good, overated no, if you want overated look at like likes of Declan rice, modric certainly isn’t

Of course he's quality. By overrated, I mean so many people claim that he's "underrated" even though I've never seen anyone who doesn't rate Modric as one of the great midfielders of his era.
And there are contexts where Modric's quality does get overrated. I remember someone once ridiculing me for claiming Fabregas was a better player for Arsenal than Modric was for Tottenham - even though Fabregas often carried the Arsenal team in a way Modric never did for Spurs.

Did Modric really just win the FIFA player of the year? Like really, he actually did? I don't want to use trolling language like "fraud" and all that, but it's official: the guy is the most overrated footballer I've ever seen. So much credit for so little. What a joke.
-------------------
Still talking sheeet after all these years. Funny
Aside from Messi and Ronaldo, where it’s just absolutely undeniable, I think Modric might be the most universally rated player in recent times.
You always get the odd person who has differing views but the vast majority of football fans really, really appreciate the player Modric is. And I really do mean the vast majority, I can’t think of any football fan I’ve met IRL who doesn’t think Modric is absolutely top quality.

Lol.....he won the 2018 Player of the Year awards cos of Ronaldo and Messi fatigue. Ronaldo scored15 goals through 13 games that season to fire Madrid to another CL title. Any other player who did that would have swept all the individual awards. I said the same when people were claiming Wesley Sneijder should have won the 2010 FIFA award and Ballon D'Or over Messi. Messi and Ronaldo's freakish consistency makes people desensitized to just how good they were at times and willing to reward manifestly inferior players and performances just to break the duopoly. No facking way Modric should have won that award over Ronaldo.

Exactly. Yet, there's always that one person that pops up to claim Modric is "underrated".
