Instead, Smeets, Van Wely and Stellwagen are somehow is in group A?!
Also where's Ponomariov, Jakovenko, Alekseev, Shirov and Svidler? I think they should be in it.
as of right now, Ivanchuk and Morozevich are the most overrated player I've seen. Carlsen is also very overhyped as he has only won 1 so far. I think Karjakin is by far the best player. Even though his rating isn't that high, but he is probably the most competitive player there is!
Carlsen is overhyped? You mentioned he only had 1 win. Did you go over all the games? I have seen most of his games, and he is trying to win them. Most them aren't 'grandmaster draws'. They are all long games played to conclusion. He is competitive. He is pushing for wins, but missing little things that let his opponents off with a draw.

The next best rated player born in 1990 or later is rated 27th.
The most relevant player to have to make a seriously competitive tournament must surely be Carlsen.
Originally posted by EmLaskerCarlsen and Topalov played better than any other chess player during last year. Magnus one almost every tournament he played. In Corus 2009 had big advantage against Kariakin, Rajaboov and others.
