I’ll start with two.
Richard Naylor. Anyone who thinks he was overrated should never post on this board again. There was a time when he and Scowcroft were leading the line for us. And making a success of it. I’d take them two over any of our current strikers. Wasn’t too shabby as a defender either alongside De Vos. Again, I’d take them two over any current centre half partnership we have. Nayls wore his heart on his sleeve. Yes, he had the game of his life against Barnsley. But he shouldn’t just be remembered for that day.
Jermaine Wright. Without a shadow of a d, THE most underrated player of that promotion side. Hard working. Did so much that went unnoticed which allowed Magic and Holland to flourish. Absolute bargain at £500,000. He should have scored more goals. Had a decent shot on him, too. Without him in the team, we would have conceded so many more goals. Wilnis was a much better player for having Jamma in front of him. |  | | |  |

Not sure if this is a comedy post but I’ve always found Naylor to be quite a frustrating player.
I’m not sure what season it was but I recall Naylor scoring a brace against Pompey and one was a long ball which he beautifully brought under control before chipping a finish over the on rushing keeper. He had skill but he never really developed after Wembley.
For underrated I’d say Matt Richards - not as a left back as a central mid. Thought he passing was actually quite good and he had a good shot on him. Much better central mid than a lot who followed him in that position. |  | | |

Gavin Johnson was a very good all round player. Could tackle, pass, decent header of the ball, could use both feet and had a good shot in him. He wasn't a fast tricky winger who got people off their seats but he was a very effective player for us. | | | |
