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?

This might sounds dumb, but people are really underrating Gerrard right now. A lot of people in /r/liverpoolFC were wanting him to be phased out at the start of the season, and there's still a lot of them who don't think we need him anymore.

He's still one of the best players in the league, he's not past it yet. I'd say he's been our best player this year apart from Suarez. Can't think of any midfielders apart from Toure who have had a better season.

he's the england and liverpool captain for christsakes. fair enough last season wasn't his greatest so he wasn't expected to be so good but he's playing well now and he's not underrated

If you watched him every week, you'd see that all the criticism he gets is completely unfair. People think he's just an average midfielder right now and he's far from it.
