the saint in winchester Posted 27 August, 2012 Share Posted 27 August, 2012 Presumably with the magnitude of the investment this will be a press conference event to unveil the player, rather than a simple announcement on the website?

VectisSaint Posted 27 August, 2012 Share Posted 27 August, 2012 And all this happening on a day that some on here didn't think counted as one of the days left before the transfer window closes. Everyone was supposed to have their feet up today because it is a holiday in England. So 4 more days of transfer business left after today.

Lazlo78 Posted 27 August, 2012 Share Posted 27 August, 2012 From a Serie A-follower, I chatted with: "Ramirez has a huge potential. Excellent shot with his left foot but by no means one-legged (?), good understanding of the game and sharp dribbles. He's still a bit rough but also quite young. He should not be tied to the wing, he needs freedom to move around. He has gradually been moved further forwards as his strengths does not lie in the defensive work. He does like to track back and take part in the build-up. With all due respect I would have expected a bigger club to sign him." Nothing new, but nice to see it reiterated from someone following the Serie A closely... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've just been exposed to so much information through the medium of twitter and nobody can seperate what's actually correct from all the bull sh*t. If anyone in Italy knew how to keep their gob shut, this thread would have been very quiet for the last couple of weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saintchris23 Posted 27 August, 2012 Share Posted 27 August, 2012 and I am starting to feel we are going to get a performance anti-climax a la Skacel..... To all the Alpine bashers, I think he has a fair point. None of us really know if he's going to cut the mustard and none of us have seen him live. It's not like we're talking about Ronaldo but potentially he could be the next Ronaldo - the good one, not the fat one! Lets hope it happens and lets hope he's amazing, hopefully signed and sealed in time to play against United as I'm back for the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badger Posted 27 August, 2012 Share Posted 27 August, 2012 Until I see the usual photo of him at SMS in either the shirt , or with a scarf I shall continue to believe Gaston Ramirez is a cure for indigestion rather than a footballer, let alone a Saints player. 5000 posts.

Perhaps better than a Kinkladze Revisited season, ie player a genius whilst those around him get relegated as at Man City some years ago.

That's interesting, thanks for sharing although I'm a little bit confused as Turkish emphatically told us all he's a winger and will play on the wing because he's a winger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OttawaSaint Posted 27 August, 2012 Share Posted 27 August, 2012 It's not like we're talking about Ronaldo but potentially he could be the next Ronaldo - the good one, not the fat one! Ronaldo was a bit of an unknown quantity when he signed for Utd and the price tag raised a few eyebrows. He did take a wee while to settle in (to many step-overs etc trying to do too much), but once he did he became a formidable force. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
