Charged with:

  1. Looking like Annie Lennox.
  2. Trying to convey a bad boy image, then suffering that nasty injury from a freekick.
  3. Collecting wages and doing nothing of note for them.

Cost: £15 Million
Club: Tottenham Hotspur

Charged with:

  1. Crashing into a tree whilst pissed up. Great role model.
  2. Believing in ones own hype.
  3. A succession of embarrassing haircuts, culminating in some thunderbirdsesque greasy thing recently.
  4. A sufferer of "billy-big-time" syndrome.
  5. Being compared in his youth to Dennis Bergkamp. Give us ALL a break.

That should suffice for now.

As I was compiling this list I thought of many players that aren't over-rated, because no one rates them, but they are worth honourable mention for just how bad they are:

  1. Praise be, to Titus Bramble, currently of Wigan Athletic. As bad as bad gets in the Prem.
  2. Hail to the consistently error prone star that is Liam Ridgewell of Birmingham City.
  3. Congratulations to Tottenham for extending circus act Peter Crouch's career.
  4. Notable mention to Emile Heskey, still release from the stalls most Saturdays.
  5. Scott Carson, West Brom's "joker" - just how bad must a 'keeper be? Give up Scott.
  6. Sunderland's Craig Gordon, you are not far behind.
  7. Daniel Cousin, who does he play for this week? Hull, Fulham, Stoke?
  8. Paul Scharner, kind of like watching your dad remembering how to play.
