Young man moving to one of the great world cities in Rome to work with one of the great managers, experiencing life in a fantastic culture, with plenty of time to develop as a footballer and human being. Seems like something of a dream to me. Nah mate, he's basically exiled to the middle of nowhere, bet he's gutted he's not had the chance to move to Birmingham. How many miles of canals in Rome, eh?

And experiencing cultures in exotic places isn't all young footballers dreams. Alot just want that UK Lad life. Might be your wet dream but I'm guessing your not a young lad.

penguin Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 Why are Arsenal after Ramsdale, am I missing something? Especially for the £30m or so being touted, he's looked absolute shite whenever I have seen him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then signed an Icelandic guy who makes Nyland look like safe hands. Now they want a shitter Pickford All in 12 months Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted August 18, 2021 Author Share Posted August 18, 2021 who the **** is going to buy leno off them? and id seen a suggestion that them wanting ramsdale is thanks to the IT department doing the scouting, they're looking at xCG and all that bollocks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 Ramsdale is quite young, and has played a lot of football. I don't get it either, but clearly there are people in the game who think he's got good potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember him playing v us in 2016 when they thumped us 4-0 with Loftus Cheek running riot. No doubt in a few years he'll be giving an interview crying about missing out on US world cup 2026 squad because he was loaned to FC Siberia and how Chelsea ruined his career (like Lucas Piazon did a few months back https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-9172119/Lucas-Piazon-slams-Chelsea-keeping-dark-future-nine-year-stint.html ) yet he's signed contract extension after extension despite knowing he has little chance of ever playing. I know it's easy money but have more respect for someone like Guehi who had a good loan spell at Swansea, could've just gone back to Chelsea to play in league cup but wants to get his career going at top level so gone to Palace for 20m where he'll likely be on 60-80k. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't look like a footballer - often doesn't really even look like he WANTS to be a footballer - but will do absolutely outrageous things just for the fun of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
