We've been trying all summer to replace Wilson.

 

Different business with midfielders. Teams know we're not as desperate and there are more possible options.

Seen things saying Ramsey was the Longstaff replacement, but I would have thought he was more like Willocks role?

Surely Miley getting more opportunity this season replaces Longstaff?

So, when is Ramsey supposed to be back?

Quicker than little Joe retains his form!

[Lish007]

He looked sharp... he just didn't use his head. Frustrating. 

[Alberto2005]

Sorry, but sell.

[Novocastrian]

He plays football like old people fuck.

If he's an attacking midfielder then I am a swim suit model balls bounce off him or he falls over holding onto the ball just not effective enough for where we want to be.

My Villa supporting mate called him a perma sick-note, I don't know how consistently reliable Ramsey will be this year but hopefully kicks on when he's back

[Danh1]

Brain dead. 

[Lotus]

I didnt have high hopes but he exceeded them. A brain fart and misplaced easy pass aside, I thought he looked alright. Seems to have his stride back. 
Would love him to get plenty of sub minutes so he can get back to full fitness and strength.

[nufcjmc]

He will have 12 months left on his deal come the summer its a big season for him to prove he can stay fit and contribute both important if we want to offer him a new deal or help with resale value should we cut our losses.

[Pilko]

Doesn't offer anything anymore, sadly. Best we can hope is that a West Ham or someone are still daft enough to buy him this summer.

[huss9]

did some difficult things well, then fucked up the easy stuff.

[TRC]

It’s fairly clear he shouldn’t be anywhere near our first substitution. Starting in the league cup and 30 minutes when we are comfortably winning is what he should be

[Decky]

I can't believe the drop in quality this man has had. He's completely useless now. 

[KaKa]

That passage of play where he did well to receive the ball turn and carry it for a bit and had Gordon open on the left running into space, and just had to play him in, and he just completely ignores him, and does a 180 turn and dribbles right back into the congested midfield and immediately loses the ball.

 

My God ... one of the most infuriating bits of play I've seen in a while 

[Menace]

I think he's the only player under Howe who has regressed, injuries no doubt played a part but he's lost the explosiveness he had when he first came. We need to move him on.

[r0cafella]

Even if he regains some form are people willing to renew him? We should be aiming for better imo. 

[Menace]

No. He's probably on a decent salary and has been out of form for close to 2 years - it's time to move on

[1964]

For the first time in literally years, I didn't think he was total shit.  Damned by faint praise I know

[OoOGazOoO]

I used to be a massive fan of his, thought he was quality but the speed of his regression has been crazy.
