Ramires

[DH1988 1,346]

Has become a hindrance lately unfortunately

He worked his bollocks off last night he had an outstanding game. He was sprinting everywhere and done exactly what was asked of him.

We should probably aim a little higher than Arsenal and Spurs. We also have Matic who provides that steel in midfield, so what we need alongside him is someone who can kick the ball better to put it in mightily simple turns.

Ramires is great without the ball. Unfortunately someone in his position tends to get about 50 touches a game.

So until we signed Matic then?

If you actually go through the couple more posts of discussions between me and specialjuan, then you ll know that I have said the exact same things. Rambo's role changing in the team with matic coming in, rambo playing solely cos we don't have a option etc etc. Nothing here that I disagree with

Let me drive this home to you. I have been having a go at Ramires for the most of the season because his performances have been well below par, everyone can see that. You, are making excuses for his first touch last night by blaming Torres for being behind him for crying out loud. His first touch had nothing to do with Torres, had his first touch not been like a school boy he probably would of got to the box and then allowed Torres to actually get into a position to deliver, but no, this is Ramires we are talking about and the thing that has been so poor all season from him again rears it's ugly head.......So yeah let's blame Torres.

The team last night as a whole and as a collective group was good, what wasn't good was our decision making and the fact when we got the ball our touch or choice was fucking bordering on pathetic. Our chances to get out and retain the ball last night were limited, when we did we panicked and our touch and distribution was so poor. I class the final result as really good, but when you talk about individuals who struggle to do the basics right and correct then there was some culprits who stood out and who have been doing it the majority of the season.

Stopped reading after the first line. Anyone who thinks that rambo until december was "below par" simply is prejudiced. The rambo that owned toure, the rambo against arsenal, the rambo without whom we simply could not imagine our pivot.

I am not giving an excuse for his touch. I said it was a poor touch. Read my last post again. But what is baffling me his slagging him off for that one instinct. Except for that one mistake, he had a good game. He did his job. He did all that was asked of him.

In other words ... he's a footballer who's better when he doesn't have a ball at his feet.

If you asked Ramires to run five lengths of the field he would and quick. If you give him a ball he would be like a Kangaroo on fucking speed.

come on man he did well but calling that performance outstanding is silly i would call cahill, mikel, or terry (before inj) outstandings as not only they defended well & had so many clearance they wer composed with the ball also..

He was sprinting from one length of the pitch to the other to win the ball back. I agree with most points about him going forward, but I think defensively he's very astute and showed that last night.

Last night wasn't about attacking.

Last night wasn't about attacking.

The second leg will probably have to be though, and in that case he's screwed.

[BloodIsBlue 291]

I think a deal where Ramires heads back to Benfica and Rodrigo comes to the Bridge would be brilliant!

[Jase 43,479]

Out of last 3 league games of the season and the first of next season.

[bushman 2,043]

Banned for 4 games for one slap & some of you want to field the best Chelsea against liverscums. lol. Fuck them all!

[lionsden 4,689]

He deserves it for being an idiot. it's not the first time he's being involved in stupid violent conduct either.

[bushman 2,043]

He deserves to be punished, but not fucking 4 games. If he were playing for Liverscums, two games tops, I bet.

[Special Juan 28,098]

Really can't argue with that I'm afraid.
