10 Most Overrated Players In World Football Right Now

2. David Luiz (PSG)

David Luiz is another example of a defender who quite simply can't defend! The Brazilian's flaws were often picked up on by teams in the Premier League and his inability to protect his own goalmouth left Chelsea with huge problems. When Jose Mourinho arrived, he was quick to notice these issues and made sure that if Luiz was in the starting XI, it was in a midfield holding role so there was another line of defence to mop up any potential mistakes. So when mega-rich Paris Saint-Germain came in with a ridiculous offer of £50 million for the defender before the 2014 World Cup got underway, Chelsea's money men must have been rubbing their hands in delight. And the English club looked to have secured a great bit of business as Luiz made mistake after mistake before the hosts were humiliated 7-1 by eventual winners Germany. With PSG running away with the league in France, Luiz's weaknesses - a bit like Ramos's at number three - continue to get papered over and the player somehow rakes in a substantial wage for being an average player at best.
