Transfer deadline day

[Libby]

That's why I mentioned bout Bruce building the team around him, that never really happened here (not saying it should of). Also like someone above said Koeman was only saying the other day that he was a creative spark within the squad.

I think he will be average like he has been for us anyways. Don't get me wrong he has talent, but he dwells on the ball too much for The Prem style of play. That is not to say I wouldn't mind him staying.

I generally agree with you

I just feel that this was a big season for him, looked good just before his injury last under a manager who clearly didn't rate him. I just think he has something that we don't really have a lot of in the squad and if we feel it is never gonna work here then I don't see why a loan is an our interests.

Gaston move surprises me. Did he ask for a move? Seems a strange one otherwise.

Not that much of a surprise, the only thing he consistently did was underperform.....

I suppose we can say that gaston has had a lot of time and keeps getting injured...perhaps he isn't up to the physical side. In which case, Hull is hardly ideal. I thought he'd go abroad.

Abel Hernandez and Gaston played together at Peñarol in Uruguay. Both have also been on the international scene together for a while - could explain how the move has come about?!

 

[SAINTDON13]

Gaston's move may have been sparked by £10m Uruguayan Abel Hernandez signing for Hull, he will help him settle in perhaps?

 

[Libby]

Hope he doesn't go if so will be relying on Tadic and the new guy for that 'spark'. Injury to Tadic and we'd suddenly look very light again.

Nothing like being positive.

Not really negative, I think it's a fair concern...

Gaston sees things other people don't see. The fact that no one else is on his wave length is a bit of a problem - no point being a genius if nobody understands you.

Good post Archers. During the height of the stick he took on here I kept saying that in 5 years time he could be playing for a too European side. He still could be (but not hull, as that top team)

Hull attempting their own "Operation keep Gaston Ramirez happy" by also signing another Uruguayan player.

Coates at Sunderland with Poyet. Little Uruguay in the North East

If Gaston goes on a loan it gives him the opportunity for a fresh start with a clean slate in the PL. That could be the making of him. By the end of the season he might well be worth double the money and gagging to get back to the South Coast. To be of any value to Saints or himself he needs to get regular 90 minutes playing time every Saturday in the PL.

Not really negative, I think it's a fair concern...

Let's see what Mane will bring then...

 

[fatletiss]

We've spent most the summer asking how gaston would fit into Koeman's formation? Now he's off people are upset? I don't get that. If you've been around this forum for the last two seasons, you'll know how much I've stuck up for Gaston, however I totally understand this. I don't understand those who can't see it makes sense. Sad as it is.

There will be a huge adorable-shaped hole when Gaston leaves. We have sexy, we have cute, we have good looking...but only Gaston is adorable

 

[jenthesaint1990]

nooooo gaston damn! please don't let him go!!!

I've always said this as well and still see it happening, no one cany deny the boy has class and I definitely see him in the CL sooner rather than later. I could be wrong of course, wouldn't be the first time (or last!)

Yep it hasn't worked out for him here, so needs to move on.

if he had gone abroad i wouldn't have minded it so much, it's just the fact that he's going to hull that annoys me for some reason

 

[Archers Road]

From Hell, Hull, and high water, may the good Lord preserve us.

 

[ollysaints1]

Simon Peach is still saying Ramirez to Hull is not done.

Totally agree...it hasn't worked in the EPL, so I'd fully understand him going to wander about pitches in Italy or Spain, but thius makes no sense. Why has he even agreed?
