True, but sometimes it is true as mentioned by others in here. New example, Yaya vs Kolo.
Jobe Bellingham - Birmingham City
- Thread starter Classical Mechanic
- Start date
Yeah.. I might be
I nearly made the Fabio/Rafael comparison here too.. looked at page 2 and saw it was already done.
Lost the Syrenka Cup final so symmetry denied. Holland won 3-2 and we easily the better side. Emre Tezgal won player of the tournament. Looks an excellent finisher.

I wonder if Birmingham will retire his shirt number too
*** insert shirt number joke here ***
Suppose it would depend if he signs a professional contract to transfer for a full fee or leaves for £250k compensation and pockets a bonus.
For a skint club Jude Bellingham making that show of loyalty deserves recognition so far play really, in my opinion.

Apparently the better player though 
You missed a trick choosing to bump this rather than create a new one.Apparently the better player though
I don't care for Jobe.
Then again he’s only 17. Who knows how good he’ll be when he’s 20.Apparently the better player though
Parents missed a golden opportunity by not spelling it Gob.
edit: wait this thread is old and I already mentioned this one page 1. Oh well, at least I'm consistent in not being funny.

Probably more patient.
They gave him the jobe
Sure. He may still be the bigger talent, development is rarely linear.
Yup, but currently he isn't, so people claiming he is the better player are massively misplaced as it stands.
At the same age Jude was starting for Dortmund, big difference.
Who’s claiming he is currently a better player? Only seen you laugh at that argument that no-one has made.
Edit: Saw one poster say ”Heard people claim he was better than Jude” in regards to him making the Birmingham bench at 15. Probably meaning that some people think he was better at that age than Jude.

Read the thread mate, lots of people have mentioned that apparently Jobe is better of the two according to other people opinions.
Heard he's a better brother than Jude.
Read through the thread. You’re spouting bs.
One person said ”I read a while back Birmingham fans saying Jobe was the better player.”
And then there’s the answer to your post about the same exact thing, saying:
…which is exactly what I said.
There's at least four or five posts stating people believe Jobs to be the better player.
He's is now at the same age as Jude was when he went to Dortmund, Jobe is now at Sunderland.
Could Jobe become better? For sure he could. But currently his trajectory is behind that of his brother. Difficult to see how he can be the better player.
But whatever.
Okay. Maybe we’re reading different threads. Read every post in the thread.
Probably going there because the former Birmingham Academy Director Kristjaan Speakman is now at Sunderland as their Sporting Director. No idea how good he is. Will be (unfairly) compared against his brother who, IMHO, is the best English prospect since Rooney.

Better than now in all likelyhood, but also very, very unlikely he'll be at or above Jude's current level.
Jude had played 46 games in his first season at Dortmund when he was the age Jobe is right now (1 month shy of 18).
The book of Jobe
Brace against Rotherham.
He became pretty decent on FM, I think. Not as good as Jude but he was a man for every occasion with rounded attributes.
Cheeky 10m bid?
Kid looks alright
