If you want a good laugh I'd recommend heading over the Everton Banter page. Trying to convince each other that Thiago is not that good of a midfielder and will spend his time sitting on the bench.

You're alluding to my comment on that i imagine in response to a red troll pretending to be a blue.

The thing is you did not even take time to think about the comment before getting your knickers in a twist.

Brief summary of my comment - some blinkered Liverpool fans are overhyping Thiago to hell. The moment he got linked to Liverpool his skillset became God like in every possible area.
Outrageous declarations being bandied around that he's easily one of the top 3 MFs in the world. Once more, way overhyping him! Not one of you ever had that thought about him before April of this year.
Biased and unworthy claims that he was MOTM in CL final and dictated everything good about Bayern are, well, overhyping him. He was actually very sub par in that game compared to his teammates and even his own previous form.
I said he's a good player! - but i stand by my view that he will find himself on the bench a hell of a lot because he will struggle to displace Henderson and Fabinho. Both are much better, more experienced here and i don't see either of them having the character to just give up their spots without a fight.
Of course this is not every fan, but nobody can deny how over the top some posters are going on about him.

Worcester EFC - I have to agree with Monkey.
Sorry to burst your bubble but it’s not just excited posters but a good number of professionals, ex professionals and the likes of Raphael Honigstein talking up how good Tiago is. He has a finger on the pulse when it comes to German football - read his assessment on Tiago on bbc sport and maybe you’ll change your tune - after all, he am said the same about bobby Firmino.
