The most overrated/ overhyped player?
2 names come into my mind: Marshall and Giba.
Marshall is a youtube sensation imo. Besides his huge jump he's got nothing, he's not using his brain, nor he can control his strenght and athleticism. As for Giba, well he is/was definitely a good player, but being the best in the World- I don't think so. He has never been outstanding during his career in Europe, even more he was just average in his last couple of years there.
Guys, share your thoughts please

Vissoto is overrated! I agree!I don't know what you mean by overrated. What is the difference between weak and overrated?
Weak: Aleksiev, Travica, Serbian setter, Pereyra, there are probably others I can't think now.
Overhyped (not weak players!):
1) Bartosz Kurek - I know, Polish fans will execute me or scalp me for that. I have no clear explanation why but I consider him as overrated. Maybe because he is not stable in his performance, don't know.
2) Christian Savani - I haven't watched many of his matches but in every game I followed he was shaky in reception and far from remarkable in attack.
3) Vissotto - His height is his only positive, IMO.
4) Biryukov - He is not reliable. His attacks vs double and triple block are suicidal.
That on first reading. maybe later I can write some more when I think of others.

PERSONAL OPINION:
From Poland:
- Wlazly - He is very good, but too fragile for me and his technique is not breath taking
From Bulgaria:
- Aleksiev - obviously three coaches in a row think he is Terminator, because he has physique of Terminator, but his chip stopped working after WL 2010
- From Italy
- Savani - with this reception he makes Matey look like Konstantinov or Murilo, seriously, why is he OH?
- From Serbia
- Milos Nikic. - A lot of Serbians think he is great player because of his pipe, but I don't see other excellent things about him.
- From Brazil
- Andre Nascimento / Giba is not overrated for me, he is there in every situation on the pitch, very hard work on the back court and great pipe /
I don't see him compared to Stanley, Milijkovic, Nikolov, Fei - the fantastic four of opposites, playing in NT's.
- From France
- Romain Vadeleux - He didn't make it into Maccerata, I haven't seen much from him in the NT after the match with Brazil in WCH 2006
- From Russia
- Alexander Volkov. Not the best blocker, can be read from the defense sometimes /like in Final of Serie A1/ but he is young and can disprove this.
- From Germany
- Georg Grozer. With great power comes great responsibility and he is irresponsible on the field. 8 blocks, really?! He is young and can drop from this too.
- From Argentina
- Frederico Pereyra - he is not on the level of Conte and Quiroga, makes too many errors
- From Australia
- Igor Yudin. Great reach but I haven't seen many spectacular games from him
Bulgaria, second time:
- Boyan Yordanov - he is one of my favorite players, great player, very strong, but a lot of fans think he is our best opposite because of the matches with France and Poland in WCH 2010 and he hasn't won anything with club yet. I believe he will drop soon from this list, I wish him that

Do you know what personal opinion means, YavorD? You gotta be kidding me, right?
Just to be sure I will put notice in the beginning of the previous post.

I've used enough arguments in this forum over the last 3 years, so you're not the guy I am gonna start a discussion with. Besides, how can I start a discussion with a guy who thinks Volkov, Nascimento, Wlazly, Grozer and Yordanov are overrated players? Thanks for putting the new title in huge block letters, now this act totally changed your post and it sounds better. Of course, everyone is free to share opinion, but when you make such a crazy statement (which is obviously not true for reasons you obviously don't know) don't declare it as if it is a general truth, because one day you may start believing so!Do you know what personal opinion means, YavorD?

Yet again you fail at supplying arguments and react emotionally. Do you even know how to apply arguments? Do you know what is an argument? Do you know why people are polite to each other and why rudeness is dangerous? Let me give you an example of my arguments, of course not professional, but important, non the less:
- Volkov in number of games I watched this year was silent in attack, not only at the final of Italian Serie A1 on 15.05.2011, but also in USA - Russia match
(WL2011 final round)
in which Russians couldn't use their MB's a lot, because USA defense was prepared for them. Volkov didn't play good vs Trento in WCH in Doha, he doesn't score many block points average at height 211 cm and so on. He is may be the best, but with my knowledge "the best" is overrated statement for him. This is an example of argument. Yours is example of lack of manners.

and tell me how excatly is Boyan overrated? 
what has he done? has he ever been hyped, or promoted, or overpaid, or what?
Bobo is probably overloved from fans
but that's they only 'over' he is! People love him mostly cause of his character and fighting spirit but he is hardly overrated.

I think you guys are getting annoyed fruitlessly.
Ratings are very subjective and any further categorization thereof is of little importance and hugely personal. Furthermore it by no means mean that the over rated players are bad players. Indeed I may consider the second best player of the world as over-rated if I (again) feel that many people consider him/her the best.
For example I think Skowronska is over-rated. She is not a top-notch opposite (I don't rate her to be among top 5-10 opposites), which I believe many people I know rate her to be.
I may be wrong on so many levels. She may be actually be one of the best opposites, or she may be rated lower than I perceive, or the people I know commenting on her may be biased and hence my perception of her rating may be justified yet ultimately wrong.
