He has been outstanding for us on a few occassions. Particularly in the win against Manchester United. I've seen enough in Ramsey to know he's going to be a top class midfileder. What annoyed me yesterday was not so much that he started Ramsey on the left ahead of Gervinho its that OXo was overlooked altogether for some reason.(Gervinho was brought on as a sub for Ramsey while OXo only had about eight minutes on the pitch. A few weeks ago it looked like he had nailed down a starting place. I cant understand why he's been pushed back again because his performances have always been good)
Prior to his injury hell we all had high hopes for Ramsey...box to box player, good striker of the ball, full of energy. No one now can question he's been poor - average this season...i really don't remember many games that he actually played well for us...he always tries these stupid little flicks that don't come off, his finishing is often off target and he's terrible and tacking for the ball, he never wins any 50-50 challenges So as it stands you'd say Wilshere, Song and Arteta are our 1st choice 3...Rosicky and Coquelin are IMO the back ups to that and if Wenger does add some like M'Villa than where does Ramsey fit in (PLEASE never again on the left wing!!!!) Wenger won't let him leave...maybe through guilt...but I'd say try to let him go on loan...somewhere that would tough him up and see how he gets on...maybe a Sunderland or Newcastle...learn team work and grafting and see how he comes back Right now he's simply not good enough and i have high hopes for Coquelin so don'r want to see his progress halted
