Who's better, Zinedine Zidane or Titus Bramble?

My brain just exploded with the effort of trying to compare the incomparable.
 
better at what?

Bramble is better at being shite, whilst Zidane is better at bottling it during big matches; however, because Titus Bramble never figures in "big" matches it is difficult to compare them on this level.

Why is this even being discussed. It's fecking clear that the rubberman is a spastic.
 
In fairness, Zidane has won World, Euro and Champions League Honours, not to mention various league titles from around Europe.

Titus Bramble hasn't.

From the wikipedia page on Titus Bramble:

"Despite representing England frequently at Under-21 level, he has yet to make the transition to the full team due to frequent unexplainable lapses in concentration whilst playing."

:lol:

They are actually very similar it seems, Zidane had occasional lapses in judgement while playing.
 
Apparently, your comparison is not far off.

More from wikipedia:

"Although he blatantly has the strength, pace and passing ability to be effective, his infamous pairing with Jean-Alain Boumsong at the heart of Newcastle's defence was dubbed as 'The Chuckle Brothers live show' due to frequent errors and mishaps."

Seems he's not really supposed to be shite.
 
I never knew that Titus' dad won £7K on Deal or No Deal. Fascinating stuff.

In fairness to the Chief, Reflectorby, last year you too were claiming that you can't compare two players who play in different positions

What's happened to turn you against this amazing theory?
Well, I forgot what I said. But in this case, i certainly agree with you. Perhaps i have repented from my wronged ways. ;)
 
You should sell it to Newcastle for £8m.

And before you say 'That's ridiculous'...

There it is again. What the feck is it?
 
Hang on, I thought this thread was a sarcastic pisstake, but now Chiefs posts in here lead me to believe it, amazingly, might not be

Can someone clear this up?
 
He thinks we can't compare players in different positions.

He also thinks that Richardson is as talented as Giggs.
 
tbf on Bramble, he does vaguely look a bit like Forest Whittaker.

I don't think that. I know you can't.

Who's the better in between:

1. Peter Schmeichiel and Franz Beckenbauer

2. Paolo Maldini and Henry?

3. Gary Neville and Ian Wright?

4. Stan Collymore and Celestine Babayaro

5. Dieter Eilts and Peter Cech

Surely PSmith it's wise and intelligent to compare them:smirk:
 
To say one player is better than another, you believe him to have more talent on a football pitch, and would rather have him in your team(theoretically), than the other player.
Just to be 100% clear here Rubber, you do not believe that we can compare Zinedine Zidane to Titus Bramble?

1. You used the right term theoretically. Theoretical things are at times very illogical.

2. Answer me these two questions first?

A. If you had one defence position left and playing 4-4-2 was mandatory. He would you choses as a center back Zidane or Bramble?

If you chose Bramble does that mean he is better than Zidane?

B. In the same vein if you had to chose on attacking player, and you chose Zidane? Can yo say Zidane is a better attacker when Bramble is a defender by trade without sounding utterly stupid?

Is it not like saying I'd rather start Roy Keane instead of Henry. or pele instead of Schmeichiel?

You tell us honestly
