Chris Rigg


had his shirt retired at brum 🤣🤣🤣🤣.
Your arguing about the sake of 9 months or whatever, Rigg is on course to match Bellingham’s first 40 championship games, albeit 9 month later if you want to be pedantic about it. The exact same clubs are not interested and there’s every chance he will be playing champions league football next season. His current career trajectory couldn’t be any similar to Jude’s really, apart from your very important 9 month.

šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

You laughed at a poster for comparing Chris Rigg to Bellingham at the same age. When called out You’ve then tried to say they were in the same places in their career at the same age.

You’ve been told by at least 2 posters that’s not true as at Riggs age, Jude was playing in the champions league.

Rather than admit you’re wrong you’re the one going on about some random 9 months?

You were wrong, just face it šŸ˜‚
Say it again then you boring shit

I just have 😘

Ya trying to be negative about one of our own players for the sake of 9 months man, of course he can be compared to Jude Bellingham, they’ve both come through at championship level and have very similar stats and effects on games. Aye he’s 9 month behind but you could argue it was better phasing him in last season than chucking him at the deep end like Brum had too with Jude to stay up.
Who else could you compare him too? Every other player good enough to break through at 16/17 has been in the prem off top of my head.
He really is a generational talent and could be playing champions league next season, there’s no question about it.

I’m trying to be negative, where exactly?

Have a look at my posts this season, I’ve praised Rigg massively, I think he’s f***ing class, but I’ve simply called you out for trying to show someone up for saying it’s too early to compare him to Jude. You’ve then doubled down, and been proved wrong, god knows what this 9 month shit is.

At Riggs age Jude had already proven himself over a full season and was playing in the champions league, none of this 9 month bullshit, the same age šŸ˜‚.

Rigg might do the same, but it’s far too early to compare him to Jude based on a few decent championship performances.

As per you can’t take your red and white specs off. Ask any none Sunderland fan if it’s too early to compare Rigg to Jude f***ing Bellingham and I guarantee 99% of them will laugh at you.

Because you said, ā€œSame age at breakthrough, very similar stats at this stage of their careersā€

Which isn’t true. Rigg is a season ā€œbehindā€ at the moment

You say it’s pedantic but it isn’t. Your claim is a season out and it’s being corrected. Which is fine, you were incorrect, that’s ok. A season for a 16/17 year old is basically their entire professional career.
Who else could you compare him too?
Nobody. Let Rigg be Rigg

Should be a pinned statement on here that, people just can’t do it šŸ˜‚.

ā€œI was wrongā€ it’s really not difficult.

Literally not one person has been negative about Chris rigg like.

You won’t find one post on this thread doubting his ability. Just a typical smb response if anybody dares disagree with something it’s negative.

People saying it’s a bit early to be comparing him to Rooney and Bellingham etc aren’t being negative. They’re being realistic.

Haway man earlier in the thread people were comparing him to Messi. It’s madness

The Rooney one is stupid but the Bellingham comparison is completely fine. At the same amount of games played at this level their stats are very similar and Rigg is now getting the hype and links the exact same clubs Bellingham did.

Why is it too early to compare them at this stage of their career? (Not age as this is very important to you it seems.)
What had Bellingham done after 25 championship games that Rigg hasn’t?

This has been done already. You can think he is as talented as you want ( and he is) but he isn’t tracking what Jude did at all. Various reasons why not
 
Because he’s half a season behind at 17 year old? 🤣
Let’s do this again. They are really comparable as they have birthdays close together. In their first scholarship years , Bellingham played more games at championship level including more starts. They then both turned 17 and both signed their first pro deals. Jude then signed for a European giant for about 30m quid and Rigg stayed at Sunderland. At this stage in season 2 Rigg is doing what he is doing and it’s great. Bellingham was called up for England u21 in this international break ( Rigg wasn’t) and was only weeks away from making a champions league debut and around 2 months away from making a full England debut so unless Rigg somehow plays in the Champions league and makes both an England u21 and full England debut in the next 2 month explain how he isn’t behind what Bellingham done.

So he’s a season behind at 17 year old? Like that’s gonna make any difference if he moves to a CL club next summer

Because these are your words ā€œWhy can’t he be compared to Jude? Same age at breakthrough, very similar stats at this stage of their careers and supposedly courted by the exact same clubsā€ so as been proven and you are now admitting he hasn’t. He is behind what Jude did. Nothing wrong with that by the way he’s still brilliant.

Their stats at the same amount of games played is near enough exact, your right about him not playing a full season at 16 year old but can’t see much difference between 16/17 when comparing it to their future careers.
Every chance he will be as good as Jude judging him on what we’ve seen so far.
Feel like the media hype is just starting on Rigg atm and by end of season he will be the media’s next big thing
