I'm not so sure we overrate. We do have a squad that has achieved multiple top four finishes, reached a major final and certain players we apparently overrated, players like Walker and Eriksen who many of my pals said I saw through Tottenham tinted glasses went onto play for major clubs earning major deals for themselves out of it.
A pal of mine said I was bias when I suggested Lloris was a far better goalkeeper than the likes of Kasper Schmeichel. The numbers speak for themselves. Each person is different I guess but I think as a fanbase we kinda know the decent ones from the ones who ain't gonna cut it in N17.
Hmm, I might agree on our fanbase, but I think the reception we get from the wider media is by and large OK. I've read multiple assessments of Eriksen as 'world class' for instance - certainly is on his day, but blows hot and cold (as we know) and Real/Barca didn't come in for him, in the end.
I think the key is position more than the actual club in question, in the main. Dembele for me was world class in his position but because he didn't score or assist much tended to slip under the radar.
