this is what i like about ramos, nobody has clue what hes going to do next, this guys has balls to do what he likes with the formation
Bent and Berby up front methinks - big powerful targetmen.
:lol: how strange, that's precisely the same thing that some people hated about Jol.
This isnt the case at all.. Jol never put his balls on the line by changing things drastically. He would never make substitutions earlier than about 70 minutes or so.. He would hardly ever try and play a different formation during a match or even before... Ramos seems willing to try things out that Jol never would and te decisions seem to be working most of the time... COYS
You ain't foolin' no-one, Juande Ramos.
Justin Edinburgh, quoted in today's Grauniad, reckons the club underestimated how long Ledley would be out, and that we would have gone for a more experienced player if we'd realised it was going to take this long. I reckon he reckons right.

Anyways, I think this can go in DC's team news thread.

To be fair Ramos hs been in charge for couple of games so he's yet to decide which of his players can cut it in a competitive game and which ones can't. If he's still chopping and changing in 2 years time then that is a concern.
You didn't know what Jol was going to do?? Ramos has by far gone outside the box and used Zokora as a center back and seen Chimbonda shouldn't be there so he keeps him at right back, something Jol would have never done and something I am suprised but happy Ramos is doing.
Ramos has also played a 3-4-3 at one point, something Jol never did, even when losing at the closing stages of a game.
I liked Jol but he was far more conventional than Ramos has been and right now anything is better than what we have been doing so unconventional is a huge improvement if you ask me.
I am not for sure if that is what you meant by not knowing what Jol was going to do but I thought that is what the first poster was saying.
