Pongo Waring Posted February 17 Posted February 17 Another Ramsey brother called Cole. On the bench for the U18's today. Brother of Jacob and Aaron. His dad was a boxer blah blah blah. Transfermarkt say he's a CB. Just turned 16 a few days ago (18th Feb)
Pongo Waring Posted February 17 Author Posted February 17 23 minutes ago, useless said: He's not a centre-back, he's an attacking midfielder Rated highly like Jacob?
useless Posted February 17 Posted February 17 I've no idea how highly rated he is, but I've seen him play a few times and looks a good player
gwi1890 Posted February 17 Posted February 17 Let’s start the usual “better than his brother” stuff 3
Tom13 Posted February 18 Posted February 18 I thought their brother had a different name to Cole...have I just got mixed up or are there four!?

Ramseys Bellinghams Gardners Nevilles Ferdinands Littles etc There's always exceptions: Charlton - Jack & Bobby (although Jack was the better manager). Looks like our future midfield might read: Ramsey, Ramsey, Ramsey. Surely there is a right back amongst them? 1

MotoMkali Posted February 19 Posted February 19 4 hours ago, TRO said: Most of the older Bros, are usually the better.. Ramseys Bellinghams Gardners Nevilles Ferdinands Littles etc Statistically speaking the younger brothers are generally better though. At the very top of sports it's a small enough sample that it's just variance. But lower down the younger brother is often more successful.
captain Posted February 19 Posted February 19 I always thought that Gary was supposed to be the better prospect but due to injuries as a young player was held back. I also thought it was supposed to be the younger brother was better ( maybe playing close to his elder brothers so has an advantage). However the other two examples I know of from the Villa it is again the Elder one that was better. I.e. Brian and Alan Little and Bruce and Neil Rioch. I didn't realise until I check on their age that I found Neil claim to fame. He says he was the first Englishman (boy?) to touch the ball in the 1966 world cup final.
