OldNick Posted 2 June, 2014 Share Posted 2 June, 2014 At present Gastons value is probably as low as it is likely to be barring a bad injury. If he has a great WC ( he set up a goal the other night) his value could rocket. I do not see the haste in selling him quite yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearsy Posted 2 June, 2014 Share Posted 2 June, 2014 if there was ever a player who might benefit under a new manager, it's gaston. Don't seem to make much sense to ship him out early doors, but then nothing would surprise me at the mo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WealdSaint Posted 2 June, 2014 Share Posted 2 June, 2014 If, and it's a big if, Adam is going then it would be madness to sell Gaston. The reason Gaston didn't get the game time was because Adam is a similar player and in the last 2 seasons has been in better form. It's also just possible that Gaston hasn't thrived at Saints so far because he wasn't in MoPo's inner circle (This is solely baed on what I have read on this forum, so treat with caution!)

BARCELONASAINT Posted 2 June, 2014 Share Posted 2 June, 2014 Agree with Derry, no point in loaning him out, he could actually be useful this season. However if they want to buy him then i would let him go. No doubting his talent but his temperment???...Unfortunately the writing was on the wall the moment he opened his mouth when he signed and said he had come for the money!!.....I had hoped he might actually show his worth as well....but far too little on show.

JakkoUK Posted 2 June, 2014 Share Posted 2 June, 2014 I don't see the need to sell Gaston at this moment. He's a player I still think has HUGE potential. Plus like others have stated selling before the world, when he hasn't had a great season, would be silly. However just goes to show his stock is high, considering the interest we are getting for him.

angelman Posted 2 June, 2014 Share Posted 2 June, 2014 I really can't decide about him. There is no question that he has the skill and huge potential, but sometimes it just never comes off. If AL goes, then there is a natural role for him. If reports of MP marginalising players he didn't favour, then maybe he can emerge as a superstar. There seem no shortage of clubs wanting to take him on. However, taking him as a loan with an option to buy is because they are undecided about his potential.

Bucks Saint Posted 2 June, 2014 Share Posted 2 June, 2014 Totally agree we should keep him for next season if AL goes. For much of the 2nd half of this season, especially since J Rod has been injured, when AL has gone off we have often looked very flat. Solid, decent, but no spark. We have seen flashes of spark from Gaston, too few I agree, but occasionally very good. We need to keep him and play him if AL departs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smirking_Saint Posted 2 June, 2014 Share Posted 2 June, 2014 Seems crazy to sell before new manager has seen him. Without Lallana we really need him. This really, plus the games he played this season for me he still looks a man with talent, the last few games towards the end of the season he played he looked like he could certainly add something to the team. I just think we need a bit of stability, and regardless of opinion he has been here a while now, look how Sunderland coped with major upheaval in their playing department. I just dont think the team under Poch could include both AL and GR, personally I think if AL leaves it will open the door for Gaston. For me its certainly worth the risk. A loan with no money coming the other way would be a definate no from me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DuncanRG Posted 2 June, 2014 Share Posted 2 June, 2014 If Lallana and Gaston both go (assuming Osvaldo won't come back) we are looking at having to buy a brand new front three for the start of the season. If we are confident that we can secure two or three strong signings and Gaston needs to go to pay for them then it might work out but I'd think very carefully indeed. I certainly wouldn't put him out on loan unless it's for financial reasons. He's too close to the end of his contract to be sent out somewhere to 'see if he can develop'.

alpine_saint Posted 2 June, 2014 Share Posted 2 June, 2014 You've clearly seen footballers have a new lease of life under a new manager, so what is it that makes you not want this for Ramirez? Racism? Closet gay feelings producing hatred? Or simply fear that for the hundred thousandth time you'll end up being proved very wrong? I think he's f**king useless, thats what. He also aint into us. Yoshi flies back from Japanese internationals and makes himself available almost immediately, Gashton needs a f**king month to recover.

Heisenberg Posted 2 June, 2014 Share Posted 2 June, 2014 Ramirez was supposed to be world class, but in his 1st year he failed to deliver. Everyone then promised that he just needed a year to settle and he was going to be superb (last season) and that Pooch would get the best from him... Again nothing.

mitch01 Posted 5 June, 2014 Share Posted 5 June, 2014 Disappointed he still hasn't produced a run of form to nail down a starting place, but I have no doubt that he can be excellent player for us.

We don't even need to see a totally different Gaston, we just need to see a more consistent Gaston. The player is utterly class, and can do things with the ball that no one else in our team can (even Lallana!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
