Administrator Stan 18,363 Posted June 16, 2021 Administrator Share Posted June 16, 2021 I saw this and was like Then realised they'd had a row over a new contract so then wasn't actually that surprised. What a player he's been for them though. Iconic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cicero 5,265 Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 One of the few defenders who have reached legendary status due to his goal scoring vs his actual ability as a defender. I particularly would never class him with the Nesta's, Puyols, Terry's, Rio's etc, but what an astonishing career he's had compared to them. Trophies he played vital roles in.

Devil 1,179 Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 To be honest for a year or two I think United should be all over this, the experience he could bring to the team would be immense. He's also in pretty good shape for a player his age and has clearly kept himself in top condition. Similar to the Silva thing at Chelsea the positives of having a leader at the back can be huge. Having said all that I wouldn't be at all surprised if he did go to PSG, lovely City and the prospect of maybe three seasons in a league that will allow him to wind down his career.

El Profesor 1,457 Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 PSG's project doesn't make much sense. They let Thiago Silva go because they judged he was too old, then a year later give a 2-year contract to Ramos. I mean, I think it's a very good signing, Ramos offer leadership, experience and still is a very good defender, it's just that Leonardo's decisions at the helm of PSG are always baffling and lack a clear direction.

Subscriber JoshBRFC+ 1,388 Posted July 1, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted July 1, 2021 All but confirmed to PSG? Can’t say I’m surprised he will do well in that league and be the valuable experience they need when they actually have a couple of tough games a season in the Champions League.

El Profesor 1,457 Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Ligue 1 is way more physical than La Liga. In that sense, it can be more a challenging league for a veteran defender. This is exactly why I thought Thiago Silva would probably thrive in England, for example. But Ramos takes really good care of his body, dude is a beast and apart for the last season, he doesn´t have a long history of injuries, I expect him to do very well at PSG.
