Gaston Ramirez

We'll need a new RB over a CB to play that formation, else there's no width at all. The fullbacks must bomb forward and have the ability to attack and run the overlap. Ideally both positions need pace though as its a system that can be left open defensively. I honestly cant see us playing anything else if we sign Ramirez and he's given regualar game time. Perhaps 4-4-1-1 with out current personnel. 

4-4-1-1 is not too dis similar to this, would just mean Mahrez and gray/Albrighton would need to do more defensively. And Yeh I agree we need a new right back as well. But a new centre back is a major need for us, Huth and Morgan haven't been great and we have little cover for them.

I didn't even know Juan Iturbe had been to Bournemouth TBH.

i dont watch boro much but why wasn't he good enough to play in his proper position at a lesser club but hes good enough to come to a better club and play in that position? - genuine q what went wrong with him

[SheppyFox]

Getting excited, my scouts on fm17 said he'd be a quality signing, then again I am Burton.

Was one of the most gifted young South Americans 5-6 years ago and our fans have been crying out for some creativity with PL experience. When you're in the shit like we are and it's January and everyone's panicking you're not going to sign proven players with no faults for reasonable transfer fees. One things for sure, he will offer us something DIFFERENT and that is what we need to look at. Right now, we are doing EVERYTHING wrong and although I'm not expecting him to be a superstar, his creative spark might just unlock defences and we all know if we take the lead in games it's a different story to when we go behind. I couldn't give a toss if he comes in and after this season is a peripheral player, we badly need someone right now to try and create a spark, a change.

 

It's a yes from me.

 

I think him, Mahrez and Gray can work as a 3 behind Slimani or that cretin from Sheffield.

It might not be the fancy name people wanted, but it's the position some of us were crying out for in summer... it seemed so bloody obvious, yet here we are 8 months down the line suddenly realising we needed to find a different way of attacking.

Middlesbrough fan here

Ramirez is a great player, but he isn't consistent at all. Some games he'll set the world alight. Other games you'll wonder if he's playing. Sounds like we are getting jése from Psg which I'm guessing may open the door for Ramirez to leave to you.

What are his best points. We're crying out for someone who can control and pass a football to a player in a shirt the same colour. Someone who can thread a ball through and pick a pass. Someone with good control who can hold the ball for a few seconds to allow others to get forward... is he ticking any boxes?

So we obviously put in a bid around the 10 mil mark, but it consists of 1 pound payments every month

We'll return with 10.5m, then 11m and then run out of time.  And we'll concentrate so much on this we'll run out of time to sign a defender.  Just watch!

Of course that's the ineptness we have been faced with for ages now

If they don't need to sell, they'll get every last penny out of us that they can.

[Ric Flair]

It's going to take £15 million isn't it? Just pay the man.

[thybluefox]

If the club think he's what we need to get us out of the trouble we seem to be finding ourselves in (despite what we all may think) then just pay up and get it done. 

[st albans fox]

Of course it reflects well on boro's management with their fans to make that statement so could just be posturing
