I can see him playing instead of Meatball in a few games, imagine a fit JJ, Rogers and Duran. Could be scary.

That position needs pace in my opinion.  SJM is doing a decent job - as he always does - but I think the balance and options will be better with an inform Bailey in the position.  Ramsey is quick but usually from deep rather than threatening behind the opposition’s defence.

One of Ramseys best skills, in my opinion, is his knack for arriving into the box at just the right time. In a more central role with Duran, Rogers and Bailey dragging players around I think he could score a lot of goals. Before his injury I'd said I expected him to get double figures last season and I stick by that, if he can stay fit he's behind only Duran as a natural finisher. Get them all fit and I reckon there's 50+ goals a season in that quartet.

How old is he now? 23? If so, what a player he was at 21. If he stays fit, he’ll be an incredible player.

Won't make a difference to a hamstring pull.

Just got back to training this week. I’ll be surprised if we see him until the new year. Maybe Leicester, more likely West Ham.

That would be ideal.  About 15-minutes coming on versus Leicester and playing the first 60-odd minutes in the cup. He’d be reasonably match fit then.

That little wrapped return pass to Maatsen for Bailey's winner, I think you need to see all the angles to appreciate it.

This guy can do stuff no one else in our squad can. I just hope that if he is made of glass that it's now triple-glazed, air-locked and whatever the heck else is required to keep him fit and firing.

Agreed. He looked like an absolute superstar at Rogers & Duran levels in UE’s first half-season..

What an exceptional talent he is.
Great first-half goal against West Ham. One of our Jacob Ramseys! I hadn't scored in the league since September 2023, but I believe there were circumstances, given the injury and stop-start nature.

He took the goal really nicely after receiving the ball from Watkins' very enjoyable combination play. 3 Premier League starts in a row now for JJ let's hope he's gained some momentum, since his opening goal against West Ham was a reminder of how fantastic he is!

Amazing that he hadn't scored since that lovely finish when we hit Brighton for 6 and Villa were the envy of the world.

Ha ha I was wondering how many Jacob Ramseys we have! But Footy is right, he can be world class if he can just stay injury free
