Sergio Ramos in January?

[Reapersoul20]

Would you take him on a free?

He has yet to play for PSG due to injury and he has been left out of the Spanish squad due to concerns with his fitness. There are many rumours being bandied about that PSG regret signing him and would like to release him on a free.

Probably complete horseshite, but fun to speculate.

 

[kps88]

Why would we take someone whose current fitness situation is so concerning that his club are thinking of letting him go for free?

 

[RedBanker]

To give Jones company?

 

[CG1010]

With Varne and Ronaldo already being there, let's reassemble the entire old Madrid's team here.

 

[Bondi77]

We need more tattoos in the side!

 

[TheLord]

Let us create a first eleven consisting of only 30-year-old ++ players. I am thrilled at the prospect.

 

[Red Star One]

Ramos - Maguire as our central defenders

 

[OmarUnited4ever]

Nope, stay clear of Ramos

 

[Bwuk]

The fact he hasn’t kicked a ball yet for PSG rules this out

 

[Gary_Walsh_Nou_Camp_Hell]

Looks like we signed one sick note cb already this season.

 

[NotQuiteManc]

He is their Schweinsteiger. Why would we want another episode of that? If any injury prone player that I would like United to take from PSG, it would be Veratti.

 

[charlenefan]

Why would we sign him given the reason he'd be leaving PSG?

 

[kouroux]

Hell no. He hasn't played a single minute for them yet. He's turned into a parody in France

 

[JJ12]

Let’s get Casillas too

 

[Tom Cato]

I don't think Ramos can be viewed as any type of reliable to start unfortunately

 

[redrobed]

Not if he’s available on a free. Stingy owners and always looking for the cheapest option is a big part of the reason we’re in this mess.

In fairness, we spent over 100M on van de Beek and Sancho. Stinginess clearly not the issue here, just the complete lack of a clue of what we are trying to build (if anything).

Our last few freebies haven't been bad at all either

Not that I would sign Ramos, mind.

 

[carvajal]

Against all odds, at least for me, it seems that his body has said enough.He wants but he can't.
A nice move from Florentino if he really saw it coming.
He missed the Euro but Zidane started him against Chelsea.An indication of the importance of the hierarchy for Zizou or the weight of Ramos in the dressing room.
It certainly shouldn't be an option for United

 

[Reapersoul20]

A lot of "why would we get this crock" type replies. The same was said about Robben Ribery and Zlatan once upon a time. He's not that long off the pitch and is a very, very good CB - better than all our current ones when fit, easily. Provides leadership and expects a high standard. The obvious risks are obvious though, yes.

 

[golden_blunder]

Only on a pay as you play contract

 

[Reapersoul20]

Only on a pay as you play contract

Yeah that could work alright. I doubt he would take it though, he's probably on like 600k a week or something ludicrous.

 

[Ronaldo's ego]

Please no.

 

[skc_18]

What good will this bring ?
We already have 3 good (atleast what Ole thinks) CBs for the 2 spots. And we have Bailly too. Why would we want to bring another CB who isn't fit and would just disrupt whatever harmony we have in the team? This will be a signing similar to Victor Valdes.
I cant think of one positive in this, literally not even one.

 

[Pep's Suit]

It sounds like his career is over, I doubt any team will sign him. He played like 300 mins of football this calendar year and if his body doesn't react to treatment anymore... That's the end, unfortunately.

 

[RUCK4444]

For free on low-ish wages. He may be a crock but if we have enough of them we will always have at least three that can start in a back five

 

[Idxomer]

Only on a pay as you play contract

So he'll be paid nothing.

 

[Shane88]

Yeah that could work alright. I doubt he would take it though, he's probably on like 600k a week or something ludicrous.

300k for 90 minutes. Another 300k for a clean sheet. £20 million bonus for a CL.

I'd run United into the ground in a week.

 

[Ish]

Why would we sign him given the reason he'd be leaving PSG?

Because the Caf gonna Caf!

 

[Red Shorts]

No, no and no. Maybe 2/3 years ago when he was contemplating leaving, but I see him struggling with i juries and having no pace left.

 

[Reapersoul20]

Because the Caf gonna Caf!

Yeah nobody is allowed to have fun and speculate here !

Ole out

 

[Catt]

Not if he’s available on a free. Stingy owners and always looking for the cheapest option is a big part of the reason we’re in this mess.

Stingy owners

 

[Wilt]

injured 35 year old ….nah

 

[Ish]

Yeah nobody is allowed to have fun and speculate here !

Ole out

 

[spiriticon]

I guess Varane needs company in the physio room now that Jones has moved out

 

[VanHaal'sRedArmy]

Why not just go and get Pepe?

 

[::sonny::]

He has knee problems that will force him to retire

 

[elnorte]

Ramos - Maguire as our central defenders

You serious?

 

[Sandikan]

Would you take him on a free?

He has yet to play for PSG due to injury and he has been left out of the Spanish squad due to concerns with his fitness. There are many rumours being bandied about that PSG regret signing him and would like to release him on a free.

How could anyone say yes to line 1, when reading line 2!!!

 

[Real Madras]

Ramos - Maguire as our central defenders

If anything mate, If Ramos did come. It would be Ramos and Varane at the back.
Harry wouldn’t get a look in.

 

[pascell]

Preach! Because after all the money we've spent, we sure went for the cheapest option when spending £80m on Maguire, £90m on Pogba and £73m on Sancho!
