robsblubot 3,595 Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 You are aware Jo is like the leading scorer in the Libertadores right now? It just seems like he is slated because he isnt a big name like others. He is perfectly fine, and much better than overrated guys with huge endorsements like Pato right now. Has played a total of like 10 minutes and already has two goals too.I think you misunderstood my post. I called him a cunt, not a bad player.So, Jo had a spell in Porto Alegre at Internacional (Oscar's former team and my hometown) and all he did there was drive his neighbors absolutely nuts with daily parties and what not-police got involved a few times. Until Internacional had enough and shipped him (without cost) to Atl Mineiro. So, Atletico is the party team, with Jo and Ronaldinho (who's been dropped for showing up completely drunk for the NT ). They've been playing great, aside from a bit of luck last libertadores game. They play very open and are only progressing because the lvel in SA is pretty low and these guys, along Bernard and Rever (Brazil CB) really give Atl an edge.So, again, my point was that Ramires was dropped for being late and not being committed, while Scolari gave several opportunities to Ronaldinho, who everybody knows is a party animal and can barely move these days, and Jo.Jo is a lot better than Fred, who has no business in the NT.

Tomo 21,751 Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 We need to stop these fantasy lineup's for next season. It's a squad game these days, any lineup that gets drawn out on here will get 5/6 games as an Xl if even that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Styles 9,790 Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 " Ramires, an irrepressible source of energy occasionally appears to have the worst first-touch in Brazil " - dailyfail ....it does look very bad sometimes. Ramires is an athlete first and foremost, those are the qualities he brings to the table. Technique is a clear second.

robsblubot 3,595 Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 yea but saying he has the worst first touch in Brazil.. c'mon. Thats too harsh.he'd been the most obvious call up for Brazil until showed up late accompanied by Eva (to confirm his injury). Scolari saw that as lack of commitment, he is very keen on players giving 100% for the cause, and dropped him.So, Ramires is not in the Brazil squad for disciplinary reasons, exclusively. I personally think he is still a lot better than Paulinho, because while Paulinho has his moments of Brilliance, he does vanish at times, which can be deadly in a single-elimination competition. Ramires on the other hand, albeit less brilliant, has better consistency and workrate, which can keep the team going for the entire 90m.

Vybz Kartel 1,613 Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Most underrated player in the world in my opinion. His the key if we are to adopt multiple formations like 433 or 4231 because he fits in both nadavTKL and Despiadado.Maleante 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbara 15,149 Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 I used the image in an article, but I suppose not everyone reads those, so I'm posting the charts in the players' thread for those who might be interested. The green and blue correspond the players's movement without the ball, the yellow corresponds to tackles, interceptions and prompt passes and the red ball possession Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which player does not dream of working with a manager like him?"Mourinho is an angry person, but if we do well what he asks, we will please him.“English football is always hard, the big clubs sign a lot of players and Chelsea are no different.

nadavTKL 1,787 Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Im beginning to change my mind about the all DM issue. I think Ramires can do the job next to someone like MVG who also knows the job of being a holder. Not like Modric for example. I think Mou can turn Ramires to a more responsible player, who sits at the back more and make his runs with a better timing. Lampard was never a very good partner for him, Lamps doesnt sits at the back and always like to put himself in dangerous positions, but they still did an ok job when it comes to defense.DDR can still be a good edition instead of Mikel, and Gustavo, but i think we could do without them. Buying Khedira would be realy stupid, Ramires's better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
