If he's playing as part of a two-man CM partnership, then I think he's actually better playing further up the field as an attacking midfielder, where his creative and good quality passing can help to open up defences. Otherwise his lack of pace/mobility can count against him when operating as the sole DM (playing in a 3 man CM set-up is a different issue).
IMO ideally Ramos should seek the following:
--------- New DM ----------
Lennon - Jenas/Huddlestone - New LM
With both Huddlestone (and Zokora and Jenas) providing DM cover when the first-choice (new) DM is not available.
Or else, in games where a 3 man CM is used:
--------- New DM - Huddlestone ----------
---------------- Jenas -
Lennon
