Chelsea midfielder Ramires has revealed he was disappointed after not making it to the Brazil squad, but admitted he would keep on working for a recall.
It has been a year since Ramires played for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Brazil-c2858, despite previously being a regular in their line-up. After having a particularly fruitful season with the Blues, Ramires believes he will earn a call-up into the national side sooner or later.
The midfielder joined http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429, a fixture
they won 2-0.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ramires-c30523 scored his first goal for Chelsea against Bolton Wanderers at the Reebok Stadium in a 4-0 win, with his second goal coming against Manchester City. His spirited performances have earned him the nickname Rambo and have made him a fan favourite.
The midfielder began the 2011-2012 season with a bang, scoring twice against Swansea City, then against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Valencia-c40863, once more in the European competition.
In March 2012, Ramires signed a five-year contract which would keep him at the club until 2017. He played a central role for the Blues in their successful quest for the UEFA Champions League, even though he was unable to play in the final due to suspension.
While his club career has been successful, the same cannot be said for his international career. He made his debut in the senior team in 2009 and has since then made 27 appearances in total with two goals scored.
Ramires said in an interview:
“I never wanted to be out of the national team. But I have not been called for a year, so will keep working on the pitch rather than talking outside.
I want to show that I deserve a return to the national team, and when http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mano-c23341 [Menezes, coach] thinks I deserve it then I am sure I will be back.”
