After the game has finished yes, but otherwise best to feign indifference, before and during the match.

If he stays fit he could do bits in this league. He seemed fairly motivated at for Wales, could be the same here...

His legs have gone and there’s more chance of me running a marathon than Ramsey staying fit all season

I dunno if it’s been mentioned in here but they’ve signed Karlan Grant on loan as well.

I think you're probably right there to be honest, he's not been right since he got snapped by Shawcross. He was always good for Wales tho, well up until the World Cup.

Not sure about that. He played near enough 40 games a season every year at Arsenal. He got snapped by Shawcross when he wasn’t even a real first teamer.

I have a few friends that are Arsenal fans, they said that he used to pick up niggles (nearly always the hamstring of the leg that broke) with increasing frequency as time progressed.

Tho looking at the stats you are correct on his game time, shocked to see that he is only 32. You'd think he'd have more left in the tank.

Yeah. He has had a brilliant career since then.

Correct, the feeling was that it could have been better I think.

Birmingham are recruiting well. Dion Sanderson now joined. Think they will be much stronger this season despite losing Bellingham and Chong

I don't think they'll miss Bellingham's contributions last season. Chong, Hannibal and that Trusty lad were really good for them.

Fair enough.
I went to the Cardiff vs Pompey cup final (thanks dad). I think Ramsey was 17 at the time and came on as sub. He was the best player on the pitch…against a very good Pompey team.

I have absolutely no recollection of that game. I'd have been 18 so I can only assume I was pissed, high or hanging out the back of someone.

Tbf the only reason I remember it was because I was there.
I doubt it was a cup final that inspired the neutral viewer.
Especially if they were already enjoying more wholesome pursuits.

Ramsey, Ugbo, Grant and Meite is pretty decent work for a club under a transfer embargo

They’ve signed a couple more too. I think some defender from the Turkish league.

I’ve never been too convinced that the embargo would stop them too much. Loads of free signings out there and loans of course.

The only one I would have had a second look at for us would be Meite - and (assuming injured), turned out 27 times last season. Remember him being quite tricky out wide in a previous game against us.

Yeh I was thinking the same, but for a team under an embargo its a pretty decent window.

Their owners have been told to cut the budget by 20% by the indian government. 2 signings ready to go have been held up and 2 of their star players could be sold

Wonder how much he would cost us.

Would we be happy with CB options of:
Fadz
Latibeaudiare
Mcnally
Hyam
1 More?

I think that would do it although problem that none are left footed, unless 1More is.

I expect Adam Wharton will get sold for a decent fee to a PL club to cover the gap.

Wouldn't expect Hyam and Mcnally tbh.
