Jacob Ramsey

[Percy McCarthy]

Oh footy you really are the best online fan of Aston Villa on the H&V forum. The only one who cares, the biggest help to everyone else because you're the only one with any sort of insight, vision and foresight that has ever entered this place.

You're so good I think you're above us and really shouldn't sully your great experience and knowledge by coming on here with us plebians. You should operate on a completely different place.

I think he might be Trump.

He has a particular way of setting himself and moving when the ball is at his feet. Hard to describe but it might be from watching his Dad box. Doesn't stick his arse out like Meatball, just guards the ball and prepares to glide. Doesn't always come off but looks great when it does.

His first touch often taking the ball on the run is sublime.

[Footy-Vill]

I didn’t mean anything other than bringing Ramsey to attention .
I thought he was brilliant and when he’s playing like that he’s unplayable .
Only way teams cope is by fouling him.

Too right. And we cannot lose him in the summer be very sad to see him go if that happened
Very much part of Emery Villa.  And fits the mould perfectly playing one of the 10s

JJ:
“For me it’s a little bit more special – growing up as a Villa fan,” Ramsey said of progressing to the final four of the FA Cup. “Obviously I’ve been to Wembley twice, maybe three times. Semi-final and final in the cup and then the play off.

“I remember watching Jack – one of his standout performances when he was really young was against Liverpool. The final against Arsenal. The play-off final against Derby

But this will be my first one in the squad so I’m going to enjoy it, my family will be coming”

He added: “The next two months need to be our best two months of the season. That’s what the boss keeps saying – we’ve got big games in the Champions League against PSG.

But also the games this week against Brighton and Forest – they are massive games for us trying to get back in the Champions League next season.

Even in pre-season the boss made it very clear that the Premier League is the main goal. The other competitions come after.

As players you love playing in the Champions League and you always want to be focussed but the boss is so good at reminding us – what we do in the Champions League this year doesn’t matter if we don’t qualify for next year. So for us players it's the Premier League.”

Was Ramsey more deserving to be subbed than Rogers?
I feel Rogers not only sometimes needs a rest but Ramsey gets subbed far too often for my liking .
Yes rogers can make a difference at any point but for me Ramsey is just as capable.
Of course hopefully it was tactically as couldn’t take JJ being injured.

Have him fresh for Forest as i’m not sure he’ll get the start v PSG away…

[Louzie0]

Am I right in thinking that his red card v Bournemouth puts him out for the rest of the season?

[dr.chekov]

Just one match ban, i think.

[garyellis]

Am I right in thinking that his red card v Bournemouth puts him out for the rest of the season?

Just the  Spurs game I believe.

Ramsey need a full pre season and no injuries, he hasn't regained the explosiveness he had getting himself away from defenders.

[eamonn]

Yeah, he's not yet got back to fourth gear. Hope he does.

He did on Saturday, but they kept hacking him down.

[Brend'Watkins]

He was excellent on Saturday but I think the constant kicks got to him and he lashed out. It’s difficult but he needs to control his temper. Having said that, the Referee (who was terrible throughout) has to offer some protection. He’s getting back to his best and for me offers more than Rogers.

[Drummond]

He's definitley getting back to his best, and definitely should have seen yellow for that second challenge, it was a stupid one to make.

He's definitley getting back to his best, and definitely should have seen yellow for that second challenge, it was a stupid one to make.

It was but, as said at the time, was it really worse than the Semenyo and Cook ones where they stopped a counter-attack but didn't get booked? I get that it was a bit clumsy but in the context of how he'd been handling the game I think it was really soft, typical Atwell though, he always seems to pick one side who he's going to much harsher with, it's why he's such a poor ref.

I also don't think he deserved the first yellow, it was the 3rd time in the first half that someone had clipped him as he was breaking away and then as he was getting up Smith started giving him shit. I think Emi went over the make the point that they'd been getting away with it until that point and got booked as well.
