Fans of West Ham United have taken to Twitter to air who they felt have been the most underrated players to have played for the Irons.
On Tuesday, the question was posed to supporters over who they thought was underrated at the club by @WestHam_Central, which derived many nominations from fans.
Let's do a West Ham version…

The question certainly caused some debate amongst West Ham supporters as there was not one conclusive choice, with many fans nominating a variety of different options.
So, after the post from @WestHam_Central, the London Stadium faithful continued to offer their suggestions.
Kevin Nolan, the fact some fans used to boo him was a disgrace

Joao Mario, Pablo Wanchope, Edi Fernandes, Feghouli, Berkovic, Unsworth, Mo Diame

What do we think?
As can be judged from the responses from West Ham supporters, there was not a clear choice for the club’s most underrated players of all time, with many honourable mentions touted.
One name that did pop up a couple of times was Joao Mario, with the Portuguese middleman featuring in 14 appearances during a short-term loan spell in east London, in which he scored two and assisted one (per Transfermarkt).
