PES 2015: 10 Over-Rated Players Who Need Downgrading
6. Gerrard - 86 - DMF
Steven Gerrard is finally calling time on his illustrious Premier League Career with a move to MLS outfit LA Galaxy. Arguably, Stevie G has been the clubs greatest player and while he will go down as a legend within the game, Konami need to also move with the times and stop pretending Gerrard is still at the peak of his powers. Gerrard's dynamic game has all but gone, with the talisman simply not able to rely on his trojan like work-rate anymore. Brendan Rodgers adapted a new formation for Gerrard and claimed last season he was the best holding midfielder on the planet - a statement that has haunted the Liverpool manager throughout the season.. But Konami must have believed Rodgers as while Gerrard's passing is still sublime, he's nowhere near the same level as Italian maestro Andrea Pirlo, Real Madrid superstar Toni Kroos or former team-mate Xabi Alonso - all players who rank lower than Gerrard's rating of 86. Realistic Rating - 80
