How good are these players?
I'm a new fan to the EPL. I watched a good amount of games this year, and some of these players really stood out(besides the real obvious household names)..how good are they?
Adebayor
Martins
Baptista
Portsmouth's goalkeeper(can't remember his name)
Kalou
Gillespie
One other Brazlian descent player on Tottenham really stood out with his moves many times.

Re: How good are these players?
Adebayor isn't that great, Martins is, but is a bit inconsistant. David James is good but is mistake-prone and crumbles under pressure. Baptista is a good player but hasn't really been at his best. Kalou, not seen too much of but seems a good player. Gillespie is a rubbish player on a suprisingly competent run of form, but it won't last. He's nowhere near any of the other players on that list.

As far as I'm aware, Spurs don't have anyone who's Brazilian?

Re: How good are these players?
Yeah, I don't think Spurs have a Brazilian player.
Jermaine Jenas though looks like he's related to Rivaldo.
Jenas, isn't brilliant, but he does have his moments.
Berbatov is Tottenham's best player this season, can't really mistake him for being Brazilian though.

Thanks.
You're right, he's not on Tottenham, they were playing them the game i saw him in. I do remember his team jersey was blue, he was fairly tall and built with strong looking legs and good moves. This was months ago.
I'll find him sooner or later..

The fact that you had to mention his team about says it.

Re: How good are these players?
Yeah I searched for Brazilians in the Premiership on google and his one of the only names that came up. I thought Everton = blue so why not?
I'm guessing that this player isn't actually Brazillian and is in fact Arteta or someone.

Re: How good are these players?
Adebayor- potentially very good, but misses alot of easy goal chances.
Martins- very good, i expect more from him next season
Baptista- was brilliant in his Sevilla( spanish league team) days, but hasnt managed to adjust to the prem. Slow, poor shooting, misses easy chances, bad touches.
Portsmouth's goalkeeper(can't remember his name)- David James, He's gor brilliant reflexes but is sometimes error-prone( hence his nickname of David James). He's been great this season though
Kalou- good, but i feel he still has alot to offer.
Gillespie- see act smiley's comment on him
