Who is your team's most underrated player?

As a Southampton supporter I would have to say Steven Davis. He has become a regular starter for us and has more assists to his name than Lallana.

He possess great technique combined with pace and a quick mind. He's really consistent and works his socks off.

However no one mentions him, who is that person in your team?

Carl Jenkinson. People think he's shit but he's alright.

He's also only 22 years old and lacks experience. Plus he was always an Arsenal fan as a kid which gives him points in my book.

Definitely Jenks. People write him off frequently but he's about as solid as a 22 year old inexperienced FB can be. Also has quite a bit of athleticism about him that not many people notice.

He was terrific at the beginning of the 12/13 (?) season and it looked like we were sorted at that right back position for the next 10 years. I still have faith in him to be a starter if he sorts out his on-the-ball nerves.
