RAMSEY’S PROGRESS :: THE PEOPLE, THEY SPEAK
Morning, it’s another quiet day in a quiet week, the only things going on are Theo Walcott calling for more consistency (I know, right!), and Aaron Ramsey hailing Arsene Wenger’s influence on his career. I like the Welshman, I have to say, I think there’s something lurking under the surface. Whether we ever get to see it is unclear, but in recent months he’s certainly added some consistency to his game, and has played his way through a difficult patch.
I don’t think we should underestimate the difficulty of doing that, especially when there was a section of fans who blamed him for everything that went wrong. Were he still playing poorly I suspect he’d be at fault for the North Korean nuclear crisis, bank crashes, political corruption and the fact that Community just isn’t funny without Dan Harmon. It does take some character to do that.
I can clearly remember posting a team line-up on Twitter and the reaction to Ramsey’s inclusion was for some people to reply to me wishing he would die. Genuinely. I know it’s a tiny minority, but still. Those are not sentiments expressed by any real fan, I realise that, but they were also expressed directly at him during his brief sojourn on Twitter. Rightly enough he decided it wasn’t a place he should be spending much time and knocked it on the head, but it’d certainly colour your view of your club’s supporters if they were wishing you death.
I don’t think he was done any real favours when thrust into the gaping chasm left by Cesc last season. It was too much, too soon, and a player, as we know, can become a lightning rod for criticism which should be better directed elsewhere. I believe that was the case with him, it badly affected his confidence and form, and lest we forget it was his first full season after being Shawcrossed.
I’m glad he’s got his head down, worked hard and showed that he can be a valuable squad player. And while you can make the argument that he’s not the new Fabregas, I’d posit that he’s a decent squad player with the potential to become a bit more than that. He’s versatile, works his arse off, technically very good (although I’d like to see a few fewer flicks and back-heels), and I think he’ll get better.
Even if he doesn’t become the greatest midfielder in the world, every squad needs players like him. Guys who are consistent, who’ll give you 100%, and who can do a job when starting or coming on as a sub. Decent, honest professionals who add depth to the panel the manager has to choose from. He’s one of those, and he’s got the chance to progress further, let’s hope he takes it. It can only be good for Arsenal if he does.

Good take on Ramsey. I have a soft spot for the guy (and Gervinho) as everyone knows, but I definitely understand why most deride him as often as possible. fwiw
My ..... Gunners !!!!
So between Rozza and Jack, who would you prefer to start?
I think Jack is a better 2 way player, but Rozz brings more offensively, which is important since Giroud is not RVP and that ty D

Wilshere any day and twice on sundays.
After that terrible start, they're a win away from 4th place. , they might even take 3rd if they continue their current level of play.
And hey, maybe next year they'll actually try to win something.
Is that your grim sense of humour?
Hey, you never know, maybe the Manchester teams will forefeit the season next year...maybe?Is that your grim sense of humour?
Maybe their planes will crash with each other and kill both teams.
The debris would land on Emirates stadium, and the cleanup would require selling off 80% of our players.
Maybe it'll fall on White Fart Lane and wipe Tottenham off the map. It's a place anyway.
Problem, Chelsea fan ?
