    Fans were wrong for doubting Tommy Watson and might be wrong as well for doubting Ramsdale.

    Not sure he’s a step down from Petrovic, just a wee bit older.

    Bulka was another level but 200k a week is madness.

    If we’d have been linked with Ramsdale before Petrovic and Bulka I’d probably have been pleased with it

    He just needs the right club it could be us, I have my reservations but they have my trust, what’s he like with the ball at his feet? Patto was giving me heart trouble even yesterday seems to take an age to play the ball

    How many times have you watched Bulka play though?

    It's probably fair to say he's a step down from Petrovic, but we have much less of a sample size to judge Petrovic on.

    Ramsdale is a couple of steps up from Patterson for sure.

    I watched a solid 7 minute highlight reel :emoticon-0102-bigsm maybe we’re getting ahead of ourselves thinking every signing will be a WOW signing

    Same as me mate and honestly I was more excited about Bulka too, but there's definitely something about players with a bit of mystery being more exciting, because their potential could be anything.

    We can confidently predict Ramsdale's ceiling which makes it less exciting but all of the evidence suggests that his floor is "Premier League" and we should be looking at that as a major improvement.

    Freak injuries or not, 22 appearances in 3 seasons isn't reliable

    I'm not blaming Huggins btw

    Ramsdale’s match ratings still look good. Southampton’s defence was woeful

    They brought in Raya for his kicking, but that’s more for Raya range rather than Ramsey being shocking.

    I think he’s good enough if he has the mentality to cope with 3 relegations and playing for another side that’s tipped to be relegated but he’s just not worth that money in my opinion. He’s fully whammy English, premier league premium price.

    He was regarded as very good with ball at feet when he went to Arsenal. Like most keepers he went through a confidence problem. Arteta wanted him to play really high at the time and he found that a bit challenging for a while. Like a lot of players I think he is in need of a bit of love. Arsenal fans loved him and he shone. If we get behind him he will repay us I think. Just dont expect him to be Becker or similar is all.

    If we simplify it. Ramsey is yet to have a bad season in the PL.

    Isn’t that kinda what we want? Yes the price needs come down but using that simple logic it’s a box ticked.
