POGBA WHO!?

[didierforever 7,349]

what a pass by rambo!!! BOSSING!!!!

[Sir Mikel OBE 4,920]

Enigma.

Pulls out some of the most amazing things, yet makes the most routine things look hard

[Jase 43,479]

Not a bad goal. Not bad at all.

And this thread is rather quiet...

[Daniel1980 1,425]

He was surprisingly very good today and wasn't that bad in the previous game either. Considering how much Jose likes him, we might see him play quite often this season.

One more goal like that and people will be saying he is the best CM in the world

Ramires does the most difficult things and struggle with the basic, trivial things - which is why he isn't rated higher by most fans, opposition fans and media. There are people who love Ramires, but I've always felt most people see his shortcomings more than his qualities because just after scoring a goal like that he misplaced a simple, short pass - as he does too many times a match. He's a little Jekyll and Hyde kind of player, so one day we're all praising a goal like today's, but the next we're all moaning about his stupid challenges that get him suspended or his inability to pick a pass. I wish he was way more consistent as a footballer, I'd like him much better.

But the goal was beautiful

Sell him, he is not good enough. Can't believe he is still in here.

Edit : oops, wrong time, should have posted it after Sociedad match

[Special Juan 27,429]

Took his goal brilliantly which is strange because it was a difficult chance to take. As said he struggles with the basics and I just hope he gets those right this season, another player who needs to step it up this season because I personally think it's make or break for him.

Actually this is not a first time Rambo pulls out such a screamer just like that. I remember a couple of goals like that when he just scorers when nobody's expecting it and usually goalkeeper just watches the ball blast the net

Good game for him.

[Muzchap 8,966]

Credit where it's due - he looked more composed yesterday - and whilst I don't want him starting every game - he can be great cover and offer something different.

That goal last night and the one against Barcelona were awesome - lets see more of that Mr Ramires please

[Chelsea Legend 11 4,062]

Good to see Ramires returning to form. I agree he doesn't need to start a lot of games but he is a very good squad guy, those who don't like him are the ones who want all the shiny new toys every year. Ramires is a quality bench option to have in my opinion.

I don't think it's make or break for him.

The only way I see him leaving Chelsea is if we sign a player like Pogba

Agreed - I think we all just want some consistency from him - nobody can question his work rate - just his decisions and Paul Scholes tackles earning needless yellows

I've always had a high opinion of him. A lot of people don't like him though, he gets a lot of stick around here. Probs even more so than Mikel these days.

[generaldane 64]

I really hope he bounce back from how woeful last season was, as I genuinely like the guy but was really frustrated watching him play for the most part last season.

[Atlas Lion 1,223]

Not a great goal scorer, but a scorer of great goals.

[Blue Armour 4,289]

Another brilliant assist from Rami, as he slowly makes his way back to the starting 11...

His critics are going to have hard time stomaching this...
