Was it a family death? I heard his girlfriend ran away to Uruguay or something (not saying that's true either). Anyone actually know the reason he went?
Sky and BBC News have been saying bereavement, as did some fella over on SaintsWeb who is usually pretty clued up on team news and the like.
"I'm not racist! Some of my friends are black!" Obviously, I'm not calling you racist. Your argument here is just as ridiculous as the one above.
I'm struggling to get to like him at the moment. No doubt he has talent by he does try some fancy flicks too often
No more so than Adam Lallana? Must be because he is one of those "bloody foreigners" that sent us the wrong way last time...
Yeah. Like that Le Tiss bloke. He was always trying fancy stuff instead of getting it in the corners.
Gaston Showed a different side of his game today and got stuck in and did the "dirty" side of things. I thought we needed a second to take the game away from reading but the 1 proved enough.
Maybe we should ship him off to Fiorentina on 00:01 on 1st january for next to nothing because he does too many fancy flicks.
What are you griping about? What does the team have to do to please you? Have you already forgotten that Rambo has flown to Uruguay and back this week, had a serious bereavement in his family, tell me any player that would actually wanted to play under those conditions? If you can't see any good in what is happening I suggest you keep your opinions to yourself.
Today wasn't his best game but he still played well. We have such high standards from him, I think this is why he's being criticised for not having amazing performances week after week.
Just clicked this thread and the following came up: http://globalvisitorsurvey.com/uk2/index.php?engsec=7&t202kw=Not606.com Anyone else getting bothered by this?
Must be to have totally misinterpreted that post, I even tried to add the little smiley to help. To no avail. Ah well.
I must be missing something here. I've just checked today's results to make sure I wasn't hallucinating when I saw Saints totally dominate and beat Reading this afternoon, keeping our second clean sheet of the season in the process. On top of that, we are now in 15th place, the highest position we have been in the Premier League for about seven years and nine months. Gaston Ramirez, who, having flown in from Uruguay only yesterday following a family bereavement, and who I guess Nigel Adkins was only planning to play for 20 minutes maximum, had to come on in the first half and play in an unfamiliar position, which he did, linking up play down the left and doing his fair share of chasing back into defence and making some crucial tackles. And he is being criticised for trying to score a goal, instead of time wasting. Sorry, but this deserves one of these:
It deserves even more than that Chilco - a couple of these posts are unbelievable having just seen Saints dominate and win a very important Premier league match. Ramirez came on and did a good job today, and i would much sooner see him have a crack at goal and try and make it 2-0, rather than this suicidal taking the ball into the corner tactic - this has also been the undoing of Saints on more occassions than its helped them in the past.
Just watched the game on Sky, and anyone criticising players are out of order, 89th minute and Lambo chasing down Mariappa, Ramirez tackling hard on the by line, Guly working his socks off. You can't ask for more than that.
