5 most overrated players in the Premier League

#3 Lucas Moura (Tottenham Hotspur)

A prodigious talent who was coveted by some of the biggest clubs in the world, Lucas Moura decided to join Paris Saint-Germain in 2013 to progress his career.

Moura enjoyed a fairly good stint with the Ligue 1 giants, but dwindling game time saw the Brazil international join Tottenham Hotspur in January 2018 for a fee of £25.5 million. While Moura has featured heavily under both Mauricio Pochettino and his successor Jose Mourinho at Spurs, he has not been highly impressive.

The 28-year old has enjoyed some good moments with Tottenham Hotspur at right wing, but it is a position Spurs could upgrade in the summer. Moura has made 27 appearances in the Premier League this season, out of which 13 have been starts. He has scored three goals and provided four assists.

#2 Gabriel Jesus (Manchester City)

Sergio Aguero will depart Manchester City at the end of the season, and Gabriel Jesus is yet to convince that he can replace the Argentine star.

Jesus has been used in a number of forward positions by manager Pep Guardiola at Manchester City. The Brazil international joined Manchester City from Palmeiras in January 2017 for a fee of £29 million, and impressed with his early performances. But it is evident that he is not a consistent goalscorer like Aguero.

Since joining Manchester City, Jesus has made 187 appearances in all competitions, scoring 81 goals. This season, the 24-year old has made 23 Premier League appearances, scoring eight goals and providing three assists. With Manchester City reportedly in the market for a striker, it remains to be seen what that means for Jesus.

#1 Wilfried Zaha (Crystal Palace)

Wilfried Zaha has been a good player for Crystal Palace

Wilfried Zaha is one of Crystal Palace's most important players, if not the most important player.

However, it remains unlikely that the Ivory Coast international will get the big move that has often been suggested for him. Zaha has been heavily linked with Arsenal and Everton in the past, but little has transpired from those rumors, despite Zaha showing interest in leaving Crystal Palace.

While Zaha has been one of Crystal Palace's best players, some of the fees reported in order to buy him from Crystal Palace have raised eyebrows. The 28-year old has made 386 appearances for the club across two spells, scoring 66 goals. This season, Zaha has made 23 Premier League appearances, scoring nine goals and providing two assists.
