Foot injuries heal if given the proper amount of time. 
Trust me I’m not a doctor.

Back in March when his season ended he was really struggling to find a solution some 9 months after the original injury

I saw something earlier that we had enquired about Kuluvesky from Spurs. Which I think is bullshit.

But I'd be stunned if we were selling Ramsay at this point. Any medical would find any problems, after a good season he'd be worth far more & why strengthen a competitor?

Son to Villa would be great if true.

I can only imagine we have players coming in that will make up for the potential loss of Ramsey.  There was something about Spurs considering a second player recently, perhaps the press are guessing at Kulusevski.  Son is 31 or 32, so unlikely to be him.

If he goes all I can think is the management have spotted something (injury issues).

If that's the case, then the same injuries will be picked up by their medical team. It's not exactly a huge secret that he's been out for ages with a knackered foot.

Yep. Probably brought him back too soon. If it was metatarsal fracture they need total rest.  Not start training again too soon .  Or he has a disposition for fragile foot bones! I broke a metatarsal a few years back and it keep playing up as I rested it for the normal 6 weeks but it came back.  Did you know unless it’s a proper clean break so a stress fracture, you can’t see it on a X-ray. You only see when it’s healed. You get a white ring on the bone.

That said I’m sure the Villa can afford a more detailed scan than an X-ray to see exactly the state of the fracture.

But it took me 4 months before I was confident I could run on it.
I decided to take up cycling instead.
Never looked back. You have probably seen me on the TDF 😀

Maybe Emery needs a warchest to buy his preferred DC/RB?

It’s not how id go about it but small profits by selling periferal players might mean we actually improve the first X1

The Ramsey talk is undoubtedly wishful thinking onntheir behalf.

I do like Kuluseski however. He's better than that wishy washy, champions of August shite.
