Ramires

[Sir Mikel OBE 4,920]

Brazil's FA officially confirmed that Ramires will miss the game vs Italy.

Wow Paulinho and Ramires out.

Hopefully Jean gets a run out against Italy now.

I always say that people tend to over exaggerate that Ramires is a poor passer. He's not. Yes, he can't spray the ball about like a DLP (which he is not in the first place, so I don't know why people expect that from him) but 8 or 9 times out of 10 he will find his target.

It's not his fault that we have no DLP in the squad.

Happy Birthday to Ramires, 26 today!

So mature for his age. Hard to tell he's only one year older than Luiz.

Ramires will miss the Brazil's match against Russia tonight because a thigh injury.

Hope it's nothing serious. We can't afford to get any injuries right now!

And Happy Belated Birthday Ramires!

9 tackles against rubin kazan. 7.4/10 rating on whoscored.com and people said he had a bad game. He is as important as anyone in our team right now in my opinion.

He is not getting the praise he deserves...

[xPetrCechx 13,565]

Too many bad passes.

[bababoom 4,478]

He's so technically poor, it's unreal.

[edetarod 2,155]

i just can't hate him, he always works so hard and shows great passion

[pHaRaOn 2,131]

Great assist today.

I've criticised him in the past and he had some poor touches tonight, but he put in another solid shift and drove the team for much of the game. We really missed him when he went off but we need his work rate on Sunday.

We got worse after he was subbed. In my opinion, he is third in the pecking order behind only mata and hazard.
