Rich Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 I don't see how anyone could overrate this bloke, given the level we are at. I pity people who don't think he's brilliant and enjoy everything he brings to the table for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Bramble had everything apart from a brain. And that makes a central defender worse than useless. Mental that so many managers kept trying to get something from him that wasn't there. He wasn't worse than useless, though. He had far more good games than bad. His major problem was a bad dose of the brain farts in game. He could be playing very well at times and then BOOM he'd go and do something inexplicably stupid. You just couldn't rely on him to see out 90 mins, hassle free This. Bramble played his part in those high finishes. Had some excellent bouts of form. Quick, strong, good in the air. Basically, the lad had great ability. But my word he was a car crash waiting to happen. One of Bobby's greatest gifts was his faith and patience with younger players - especially the British ones, something I see in Wenger too (minus the British thing). He would go out and spend good money on them at young ages and it's not like Bobby only signed British players like MON. Throw em in the first team. Overall I think Bramble was a good player for us but Bobby showed too much faith in the lad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 He looked f***ing awesome till the Reading game right before Pompey, actually. Pompey was just a f***ing bloodbath. Remember he Scored against Spurs in a 3-1 win at SJP and was the best player on the pitch. Classy defender, good in the air and a good reader of the game but a perfect example of what happens in this league if you're too physically inferior.

Cajun Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Desperately gutted to have missed what sounded like an awesome performance. He's a phenomenal player; it's times like these I can't get over why a few people think he's overrated. It's a minority for sure, but they're out there - my Dad for one. But even he today said he 'was the difference' (which is about as high a praise he gives to anyone ).

Deuce Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Anyone have any idea what blacked out boots he is wearing? This site has him in Nike Vapors We love Newcastle forward Hatem Ben Arfa here at TRW. Hatem’s boot choices are as unpredictable as his performances. The French star has worn Adidas AdiZero and even PanPantofola d’Oro boots but seems to be most fond of Nike’s Vapor range – especially once he has blacked them out. Due to the leather like look and Nike Hybrid soleplate, it seems Hatem has settled on a pair of Mercurial Vapor IX boots. Perhaps the Black/White colourway – as that would’ve saved him a lot of work blacking them out. http://therightwinger.co.za/tag/boot-spotting/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 didn't know they had a site for that topic. And didn't think he had blacked them out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Geordiesned Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Today he showed, for me, why Pardew was wrong to criticise him a couple of weeks back. Yes he may lose the ball occasionally when he goes on a solo run but look at what he can do when he gets it right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

His performance today was better than the other week when he was criticised, and Pardew praised him massively today. Don't see what's wrong with that imho.
