I got this off a players profile site that the Ed's on football rumours do for Liverpool fans, though as we all know the website is **** the Ed's actually know a lot about Liverpool and as a result have done a handy little lot of info about Ramirez, as despite their adamant denials they definitely want him. There is also a load of comments at the bottom of the page so if you’re interested here is the link.

General Comments:
Before the 2011/2012 season, not many people had heard the name Gaston Ramirez. However, that's all changed now. In just one year, he has been deemed as a Serie 'A' wonder-kid, as he is just a fantastic player. I've seen him compared as 'The Uruguayan Kaka' and for me, that doesn't cover it. I've watched him progress throughout the year in the Italian league, and he really has impressed me.
Most notably, his power on the ball, and his skill are truly evident. Ramirez has done skills that the even the Premier League is yet to see, and what I mean by that is he seems to just conjure up random skills that he spontaniously creates and just leaves the defender absolutely baffled. I myself am a spectator am baffled at what he can do with the ball at his feet, as he really isn't a traditional player - he just seems to cover so much area in the middle, and always looking to attack, whether it be individually or collectively as a team by picking through-balls. Ramirez also has extremely quick feet and to top it off, has one hell of a finish.
Although he is an Attacking Midfielder, I've seen Ramirez play on both wings and has been absolutely brilliant and worked the line fantastically. As I covered in the previous paragraph, he just seems to cover so much area, and his versatility is a massive part of that. No matter how many adjectives I think of, it wouldn't sum up how highly I rate this kid, as at the age of 21 years old and to do the things he does with the ball is class. Utter, class.
On the flip side, I'd say that Ramirez' physical attributes may need some work if he is to make his 'big summer switch', especially to the Premier League (if he comes to the PL that is). That seems to be the main weakness of his game to be honest, as he seems to get pushed around fairly often, and I have noticed he can be prone to 'going down very easily'. I would also say that he needs to work on the defensive side of his game, as if he plays on one of the wings, I don't see him tracking back or acting as a shield for the LB/RB, which for me certainly needs some work.
Would Ramirez cut it in the Premier League? - Serie 'A' is certainly not what it once was, so it's very difficult to judge, but for the fee of around 16 million pounds, I'd say he's definitely worth the risk because he has the potential to be a world class player. I would say that Ramirez would cut it in the Premier League, if he can improve his physical strength.
Summary of Ramirez:
Strengths - Pace, Vision, Skill, First-Touch, Finishing-Ability and Passing Ability.
Weaknesses - Physical Strength, Defensive Covering, Tackling Ability, Work Ethic (defensively).
The Business End of the Profile
I know this is the bit all of you have been waiting for. There has been some extreme talks about him recently, mainly about Liverpool putting in a bid etc, but this section I'll clear up any details from what is BS, and what isn't.
As I understand it, Bologna are currently locked in talks with 2 clubs. Juventus and Napoli. Now, this doesn't mean that Ramirez will certainly sign for either one of them, as it doesn't. Manchester City have also held talks with Bologna, although those talks seem to have come to a stop, which to me indicates that interest may well be passing.
Now the Liverpool interest seems a little more complex. As I understand it, Liverpool have had him watched several times, and even enquired for Ramirez in January, where Bologna told them to come back at the end of the season as they were not willing to discuss his transfer until then. The question is though, will Liverpool come back into the race? Only time will tell to be honest with you. I know there's been lots of 'premonitions' recently on Tw*tter that state that Ramirez has certainly signed etc, and a bid has been made, and this, and that, and bla bla bla, but simply, this is not true. As of today, there has been no bid made from Liverpool for Ramirez. I would also say, and I know I will get a lot of grief for this, but Ramirez' arrival may depend on Suarez' departure. Whether Liverpool fans like it or not, there is a very real possibility Suarez will be sold and Juventus looks set to bid for him very soon (as covered in the Krasic profile), although I expect this particular bid to be rejected. Nevertheless, if Suarez is eventually sold, then I expect Liverpool to go all out to sign Ramirez - although it may be too late by that time.
At the moment, I would say that Ramirez doesn't look set for any club at the moment, and as of today Wolfsburg has entered talks with Ramirez' agent, and have arranged a conversation with Bologna also regarding a move. I know also that as of today, Napoli have stopped negotiations, whereas Juventus are still trying to push.

Hahaah hilarious!
It's called Pokemon Prism. There are a few decent mods out there, but this one is supposed to be one of the best. It's a new map, new storyline and it's a hell of a lot harder and darker. However, it's only a beta version so it's incomplete.
To play it you will need:
- A Gameboy emulator (I suggest Visual Boy Advance). You'd probably have to torrent that.
- A Pokemon Gold ROM, which can easily be downloaded.
- The Prism file, which you can get from the creator's website
- A program called Lunar IPS, which is free.
Come on Cortese, go get Gaston please!! You've already made us saints fan all excited and just pay the £15m that Bologna want.
i got pokemon blue on me fone theres a app called GBC AD if anyone wants it on andriod
Yeah I use Gameboid Lite.
PompeyMeowth, if you're interested then PM me and I'll guide you through getting Pokemon games and mods on your PC. Don't want to clutter this thread
.
OK, serious question, how in f*cks name have you pulled this off? The guy was wanted by Inter, Liverpool and the Spuds, yet chose you instead? No disrespect, but you're only a newly promoted side, the others are established.
Kudos to you.
Kudos to you.
I'm quietly thinking the same thing man. As well as really trying not to get excited until I see him holding up the shirt.
We made him feel "special and wanted" and tripled his 10k a week wages to 30k
hence the "lots of money" quotes. However as you may be able to tell many on here are a bit squeaky bum as to whether it will go through now.

I hope he chooses you, just so everyone can laugh at Spurs and Liverpool.
He's chosen us! It's a matter of agreeing a fee with the club now - their chairman is being a bit of a ****.
Do you think that Cortese will make an improved offer of £15m for his services?
Cortese normally gets his way (see how much he made us pay for AOC as proof) so i wouldn't worry too much.
