Chris Rigg

[RossTheNinja]

he's technically excellent just doesn't seem to have developed physically yet and i do feel that hampers him at times. if he bulks up a bit and gains some strength feel it will do him the world of good. this will probably happen naturally though as you forget how young he still is

Needs to get on the heavy squats and LOMAD protocol

Some of the comments.

Rigg's parents begged Staveley to sign him but he wanted £80k a week.

Take a bow son. Outstanding. I have had a go at you a couple of times this season but what do I know.

Go and build on it now.

Fair play saying that we got to back homegrown players he’s been great last couple starts

So of the comments.

He is far better off with us.

 

[BiffaBeercan]

Just wish hed been able to put the ball in the net today, that would've been the icing on the cake, he would never have forgotten it.

Love Rigg but some of our “fans” ffs. These are great times.

 

[Lipso]

Needs to start every game for the rest of the season, next year will be his breakout!

Said exactly this. He’s earned the right and the minutes will do him the world of good. He’s been fantastic the last 2 games.

I've posted a few times about our young Chris
His dream is to walk out at the stadium as captain of Sunderland

 

[den]

Hopefully he has a long career with us

 

[Im wrang oni]

I look forward to see Rigg's performances when his confidence grows to match his ability.
Two games in a row now where he's looked every inch a Premier League footballer.
With a bit more self belief he's going to be an important player, this season.
Incredible for a lad of 18. Can't imagine how I'd have handled that atmosphere and occasion at that age.
Up against one of the best left backs in the league and largely nullified him and was a threat to him.
Superb stuff.

 

[TheBronzeBummer]

18 year old.

Hilarious to think people wanted him gone.

 

[Chewit]

But was definitely in our top 3 performers both games

I would give him 1st v Brighton, and 5th or 6th with Talbi today.
He played very well today, and showed good stamina. But there was some very good performances ahead of him …Brobbey, Alderete, Xhaka, Gertrudda,

 

[halfpast3]

And I’m gonna say it again. It’s almost like he’s a really talented young player

Yeah I think Brobbey and alderete were immense rigg,xhaka and Gerty I couldn’t split. Great team performance

 

[YacEmMackEm]

Hell yeah. Played great the last match as well. Think he can own the “RW” spot down the stretch.

They've moved on to the young keeper now man. They'll always find someone to dump their bile on.

 

[Vauxie]

The boy did good.
