Parsley Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Ramos bought Hutton as well who's looked good value for money. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElDiablo Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 I think Ramos' notable signings so far have been Dos Santos, Modric and Woodgate (was that Ramos?). 3 top players. 2 yet to prove that they are top players Well...yeah in the premiership. But they both have undoubted talent. They have Bale to come back too, who's quality as well imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimbo Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 I think Ramos' notable signings so far have been Dos Santos, Modric and Woodgate (was that Ramos?). 3 top players. Since when was Dos Santos a top player? He is a kid who is considered too lightweight for La Liga. Yes their squad currently looks better, but then it's June and they've done most of their big spending. Also Berbatov might leave before the transfer window shuts, nobody would be surprised.

ElDiablo Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Fuck me. Top prospect then, he's only just turned 19. Who said he was too lightweight for La Liga? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parsley Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Well put it this way - if he was such a hot prospect then Barca wouldn't have sold him. I know their standards are much higher than most other clubs but to sell such a young player so early in his career and so eagerly as well suggests there's something amiss about his game imo.

SUPERTOON Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Big different between a top prospect and a top player though and to turn into one isnt easy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teasy Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 I think Ramos' notable signings so far have been Dos Santos, Modric and Woodgate (was that Ramos?). 3 top players. One young player with potential, one who's undoubtedly good but not quite the player he used to be and another who looks very good but has so far only played in the Croatian League. At the same time they're going to lose there best player by a country mile. I just don't see how those three transform a squad from similar to ours to a mile ahead? This is a case of people getting caught up in hype IMO. The Spuds get linked with so many players and hyped so much that it gives the impression they've transformed themselves into title contenders every f***ing summer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnypd Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 he's very raw, dodgy touch, gangly, awkward, but also strong, and fast. bit like a kenwyne jones type. scored a good goal at the weekend dribbling past a few players and hitting a shot right into the side netting. never worth £12m tho and i'd like us to buy a more outright creative striker with a bit of skill and guile, rather than a direct, battering ram type. as an alan smith replacement he'd be good.

Kimbo Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 I think you were wrong about the fast thing, he moves like a slug. I wouldn't judge him on these games though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
