Slim Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 On the other hand, that means we are now looking to sign a defender that our management team considers not to be as good as Clark Robertson. Failing that, whoever they find sleeping on a bench outside of Atlanta United's reserve team stadium. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really surprised he got a work permit. The article says: "subject to securing a visa". Maybe it's easier to get a visa as a footballer with a fixed contract? No idea. They're obviously either fairly confident it'll be fine, or they're using it as a bit of good news to sell season tickets. Either way, should be an interesting one, welcome aboard CR9.

Really surprised he got a work permit. You know what they say about statistics.... Was watching a couple of YouTube videos of him, appears to be good in the air - a lot of goals from headers. Also bit of pace about him, although some of the defending against him was woeful. He even has his own chant which is quite catchy. Basically the "Vamos mi Sevilla" chant, but changed to:- Vamos Christian Vamos Christian Vamos Christian Vamos Christian Ramirez Cant find a video of the actual chant or where I even heard it (may have actually been an Aberdeen fan suggesting it when he was first linked weeks ago) but here's the Sevilla version.

Chris Frae Killie Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 I am delighted with this signing. He ticks all the boxes for me. You don't get called up to play for the US if you are pish and he was called up less than 2 years ago. I'm looking forward to seeing how he gets on.

I am totally the opposite and really unenthused by the last few people in the door. Jenks, Gurr, Ramirez just look like a continuation of the crap we signed on loan in January. Was really pleased to get Brown and Gallagher but these other guys?? Looking at his stats on Wikipedia, looks like Ramirez has done very little since 2017. 14 goals in the last four seasons - Darren Mackie would be disappointed with that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant imagine Cormack settling for mediocrity if thats how some of them pan out.Still hoping for a tasty signing or 2 yet though Edit - Just earned a "posting machine badge".

wee toon red Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 With a centre back, centre mid and centre forward now signed, that’s the spine of the team in place so I don’t expect too many more signings. maybe another centre back and a wide player and that’ll be that, especially given there are a lot of noises about youth being given a chance this season.

At a guess McGinn will be viewed as a striker this year if we're playing a 4-3-3, so that's Ramirez, Jet, McGinn and Ruth. We unquestionably need a centre back and a winger and I'd also argue a left back but I suppose Consi and Hayes can cover there. I'd be surprised to see much activity beyond that unless a couple of players are sold, with Ferguson being the prime candidate for that and likely needing replaced if/when he goes. Lewis, Woods Ramsay, Gurr McRorie, Devlin, Gallagher, Considine, ONE TO COME IN MacKenzie, Hayes Brown, Ferguson, Jenks, Campbell, McGeouch, Ojo Kennedy, Hedges, McLennan, ONE TO COME IN Ramirez, JET, McGinn, Ruth That's a 25 man squad, with other youngsters like Ngwenya, Duncan and Virtanen on the fringes.
