Popular Post JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted May 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 13, 2021 I like Ramsey alot. Even if he never becomes a world beater, he's a solid, energetic midfielder. If i'm honest, for FREE, he is probably worth more than a couple of our " Seniors " 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaAlex Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 I think at his age he's doing everything you'd want. Key standout for me is his high pressures he's great at it and was needed today when he came on, as we missed Oli today. Secondly he's a strong lad, we've had a lot of academy lads who were excellent footballers but could not cut it physically. He's also a very quicker thinker and has good movement. I think his role in the team at the moment us to be quite safe but I hope we get to see him have more freedom over time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Already though he has looked very comfortable at Premier League level for a 19 year old. There are not many his age you can say that about. o 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-R Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 I am glad we have Ramsey coming through the rank as it's been driving me nuts that were seem to be struggling to bring youth through. He's doing very well Jacob is and I'm sure he will get better, I certainly enjoy watching him play and hopefully next season we see Chuk and Barry get some first team game time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwi1890 Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 Had some nice driving runs last night he’s gaining valuable experience at a high level couldn’t ask for more 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntrimBlack Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 One who will improve, I think, and could well become a very useful player for us. I love his energy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 Again it's crazy how he's getting criticism in a match thread Does nothing of much note but also absolutely nothing wrong, looks comfortable... Not good enough, loan him out... Madness, unrealistic expectations of him and other young players, get Chuk in, get Barry in... They will be around about the same, it's a huge step up that takes time 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 The bare minimum you expect from youngsters making their way is effort. Rawness. Fine. Mistakes. Fine. Effort is a given though. None of that today from this lad. More moaning and walking than Barkley. Didn't show for the ball didn't run to make himself available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted May 16, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted May 16, 2021 Just don't see it with this lad. Not writing him off cos he young and can improve, but looks completely lost at this level from what I've seen so far. I have no idea what type of midfielder he is supposed to be. He just seems like a complete jack of all trades. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 I just don't get it. I don't see what he brings to the team. Clearly he has potential as we seem to rate him but I'm not seeing anything that stands out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 No more starts. We have a talent like chuk rightly getting upset that somone like ramsey who has done nothing continues to be ahead of him 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KAZZAM Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 He's too average to play in the AMC position thats for sure. I mean you have to have a hint of creativity to play there i dont see anything. So weird by Dean infact its baffling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom13 Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 People way being too harsh on him. I don't get questioning his desire either. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaddytheVillan Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 I don't get the hype around Ramsey. I think Dean is right to give him games and get a feel for him, rather than Barkley who won't be here next season. But I can't tell you one clear strength or attribute Ramsey has, there must be better youth prospects that we could blood instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smith does annoy me with his lack of sub usage and in a timely manner as well, what the hell is he playing at. Chuk should of been used and Smith should acknowledge he's made a balls up there by not trying him out. If Smith is like this now then what's he going to be like next season when it comes to using Chuk or Barry as I feel they could of had a positive effect but we will never know.

He must have some ego if he feels that If he comes in and plays like Ramsey will you be jumping on his back as well. If he plays in the Premier League he will make Douglas Luiz look like Vieira in physique, he is just a kid 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M_Afro Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 He was so poor today but no worse than McGinn, Luiz. Bert, AEG or Konsa. He always looks better when he comes on for the last 15 minutes. Hopefully won’t start again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
