I’m glad he took the chance, don’t think Ings was quite as clear through as he looked.Both the defenders back off to cover the pass each way, it opened up in front of him, he was absolutely right to take it on. Especially given as you say he won it so impressively in the first place.It was the shot to try as well, a shade more whip and it was perfect, keeper was well beaten. I think he's been ace so far, he's a proper all rounder, physicality, a great touch, vision and intelligent. He's going to be a very good player and his development bodes extremely well the other, potentially more talented players just behind him.There's a real possibility that in a couple of years we'll have an ace team with half of them from the academy.

One thing for certain is that we seemingly know how to manage these kids coming through. With the wealth of talent we have now its a credit to him and our academy that he is making the starting place his own.
I watched the whole game again, it’s fun when you know the result. The main thing I took from it was how much Ramsey seemed to be enjoying himself, and felt he belonged in the team. He’s very promising, but I’m still not quite sure what sort of midfielder he is. And I’ll qualify that state by admitting it took me a while to figure out what Dennis Mortimer was.

I like his simplicity on the balls. He's added those driving runs into his game this season, which makes him a more threatening player for the opposition.He's developing really well.

I was just pointing out that 'if' we hadn't won, Ings and Watkins would've been justified in kicking off at him in the dressing room. Anyway, flapping butterfly wings and all that, if it had been 0-0 at that point he may never have had that decision to make.
