If Ramsey is going to sign City should get it done and not drag it out. He’s a free agent.
Apparently his wage demand is @30k pw plus a percentage of merchandise. It’s publicly stated he wants to return and his young family want to be in Wales.
Robinson eg is on it is understood 28k pw.
The merchandise deal is a no brainer as City would only sell extra merchandise if Ramsey was here so it’s windfall money in a way.
Some may say he’s past it and injury prone but wouldn’t he likely increase season ticket & gate sales?
He’d bring a feelgood factor back to the club like Bellamy did and demonstrate the owners do care about the club and it’s supporters.

True Nin, as long as he can stay fit. Good for 60 to 70 minutes per game. He would raise the quality of team performance and help the club attract better players.

However for £30k per week Tan will need very long arms and deep pockets.

<applause> Well said sir.
It still freaks me out as to how much players demand these days but it is what it is. I'd love to see him back but I fear he'll end up elsewhere first. Hope I'm wrong.

I think people may be blinkered by his recent performances for Wales when he’s not playing in his best position in a struggling team.

IMO he’d be a huge boon for the club all round & Tan should see his homecoming as an investment that could reap reward.

Sounds like his record before Troyes was decent enough... maybe they weren't playing to his strengths and turned him into their version of Bobby Glatzel????

EDIT: just looking again now, his time in Belgium was good. Not so good elsewhere, but hey, the manager must have an idea for him (unless he was one that was already planned).

TNS game

TNS goal made it 1-1 - a 25 yard screamer apparently.
