The little jink of his body and the turn to lose his marker on the centre circle followed by the look up and execution of a diagonal 40 yard pass on a sixpence shades it for me. The 3 moments of skill first half plus the skill near the corner flag and the close shot in the second half explains why he’s the third most expensive player ever. Didn’t do much else though :-)

And Ramsey from an attacking sense was brilliant too, he’s fast overtaking McGinn as our most important midfielder and the one you wouldn’t drop when we inevitably buy a new player or two in there

I saw the big picture. Well, a wide angle replay of his second goal. He starts sprinting from near on the edge of the penalty box when the turnover happens. That’s foresight, desire and a gut busting run to get on the end of it on the opposite end of the pitch. Bloody love it!

I can't quite believe how much he's come on from last season. Don't get me wrong he was decent enough last season but in a more neat and tidy, keep it simple kind of way. This season he has added the drive and positioning to his game and he looks the part!

Same. Can’t remember the last time one of the kids developed from being in-and-around the first team to being one of our best players so quickly.

I hope he keeps up the form and catches the eye of Southgate. making the squad at the expense of the lad who went to Man City would be something.

I hope he's nowhere near the England squad until we're in and around the Champions League places.

Our players invariably get tapped up on England duty - I don't want him to be another one.

He won't leave, he is one of our own, Oh wait...

Put it this way, the Welsh Juve player is no longer the best player called Ramsey plying his trade.

Glad he plays for our Club.  He’s mint.

He overtook him a while ago, he’s got way more talent than McGinn.

Those lungbusting runs where he sails past the opposition with ease and strength are becoming his trademark.

I though we lost a lot of energy and mobility when he was taken off (sacrificed)  last night.

He is wonderful but of course I have no view of the bigger picture.

Study the dialectical method of Hegel, and soon you will see the totality of relations aka the the antagonistic unity of opposites aka the big picture.

Or, you could sit high up near the centre circle in the Witton Lane or Trinity Road stands with a wide angle lens.

   

Absolute bollocks. You need to be looking at Kant's Transcendental dialectic and the illusion of transcendental judgements, Aftab. And the back of the Holte with the rowdy kids is the only place from which to gain true insight.

I must admit that, last season, I thought he was a bit of a nothing player (Ramsey, not Immanuel Kant); tidy enough, but not good enough at enough things. As somebody who is always wrong, it's a pleasure to see him confirming my personality type every time he plays nowadays. Good lad, keep going.

Empiricist reductionism. No big picture for you!

Also, Mr. Aftab sits in the North Stand. 

"He's a killer Quine, dynamite with a laser beam. Guaranteed to blow your mind."

May God, and the good patrons of H&V, forgive me for sullying this site with Quine lyrics. It won't happen again.
Thank you gentlemen and I recognise the deficit in my reading and also type of people I need to have conversations with. :)
