Ramires

[Special Juan 27,429]

Loving Jose's words on him. :blue scalf:

Wow we started playing football again properly as soon as this guy hit the field. Really contributed to winning so many balls in midfield, exactly what we have been lacking in other games like the Liverpool and Spurs away games. I expect to see him start at Etihad on Saturday.

stamford bridge.

He has to start against City. either as a replacement for Oscar or fabregas (if he doesn't recover in time for the game on Saturday) I would have added Willian but ramires is useless on the wing

“My Ramires is back, that’s the second best news of the day. The first to be in the final but to have our Ramires back after weeks of work and sacrifice.”

— Jose Mourinho

Spoke like a father who found his lost child...

He's actually not a good finisher but he can score amazing goals.

Ramires tends to score when you least expect him to. Next time, we all should just have low expectations and allow ourselves to be amazed by him.

I've always liked Ramires, good to see him performing so well and impacting the game so profoundly on Tuesday.

[MrBlueGuy 1,552]

apart from energy and good defensive offered absolutely nothing going forward, passing is terrible as always. Now I know why he doesn't start that many matches anymore.

[Barbara 15,149]

he played very well defensively and even better than I expected supporting the attack. He's been barely playing, recovering from something physical, we can't just expect him to be perfect.

It was a very good match from him, one of the few that had stamina (when he doesn't, although Willian is giving him a run for his money on that department) and he worked well on both ends of the pitch. He presented himself for the transition, he presented himself for the attack. If Ramires can somehow reach the form he had very early this season before he got injured, I can't see him leaving the team. He was very good then and he was very good today.

Hope he keeps surprising me, as I don't normally expect anything good from him offensively or from his passing.

[didierforever 7,349]

brilliant performance. except for a couple of passes, did everything right. he is showing why he should be starting these big games. gives us so much more defensively.

[Oscar 441]

Didn't ramires look a bit leggy? He seems he is still injured.

[MrBlueGuy 1,552]

Is it just me or has he stopped running into the box as often as he did in his early Chelsea career?

Nowadays I know he plays as a CDM mostly but surely Jose should allow him freedom against parked bus like today? That game away to Everton earlier this season was the only time I remember him doing it and he scored.

passenger today...

[LAB 1,030]

No complaints, didn't do much wrong at the things we know he does well.

[Jase 43,479]

Like Mourinho said, OUR RAMIRES IS BACK!!!

[Zone 290]

passenger today...

You must' have been watching a different game. He was brilliant and did his job perfect while Matic was marauding forward. Misplaced a couple of passes but harassed Evertons midfield and had a few key interceptions which started our counters.

Great game by ramires. Nice to have him back. Fought like a bulldog just a shame that he got a needless yellow.

[DH1988 1,273]

Echo the above, great energy, combined well with Matic I thought.

Got booked, thats our Ramires.

[Special Juan 27,429]

I think it was a night that nigh on everyone did really well. We were pushed to the wire and the closeness of the game itself will be scrutinized and attention taken away from some really solid performances.

[Weckerz 3,781]

Is there anything this guy does well except run? He's such a non-player for us, I don't get how some people rate him so much.

Easily the worst player on the pitch together with Costa.
