Mirth Yeah he was extremely inconsistent. The injuries surely didn't help but watching back the matches his first touch was sometimes horrendously bad and he skied alot of easy chances.

But if you look back at his game before the injury and he is very different, Was so silky and technically superb.

    Dan Smith, Martin Taylor, Ryan Shawcross - 3 absolute journeymen whose careers were a net negative to football.

    Loved him as a player as he was worth paying to watch. Scored some unbelievable goals, but I will also call out his passing (when going forward) was under rated.

    Mirth Still one of the best we've had in the Emirates era and would actually do a great job in that second number 8 role we have.

    He would. In his prime he'd have put both Xhaka and Rice to shame going forward, not even thinking about the highlights reel but just his general awareness and craft. Also had a superb engine and work rate, but probably lacked Rice's reading of the play a little bit.

      Ramsey was a great player who had two problems. First, injury just stopped him being consistent. Think about a guy like Salah who’s always healthy and the levels he reaches. You just need that in your career. Second, we never played to his strengths. We constantly tried to turn him into an on the ball CM when he was something else. He’d own it as our L8

      Yep, he was great off the ball, as evinced by quite a few of those "third man running" goals.

      Quality player who went to waste in an Arsenal Dark Ages.

      Ramsey dropped off slightly after his famous "purple patch". After the next summer he hired an image rights consultant and peroxided his hair, and following that he wasn't quite the same.

      I don't know if I blame him for having his head turned by big offers from Europe (who wouldn't, especially at a club which demonstrably lacked the necessary ambition?). His one and only league title is a scudetto after all.

      In retrospect I'm amazed we had a single player worth a damn after the 16–17 season when Leicester won. Our side from the past two seasons would easily have won that title twice.

      JazzG Not surprised he doesn't like RvP lol. Supposedly they did not like each other at all.

      Good judge of character as well as a top player.

        Anyone watch this channel?

        I've enjoyed a few, and this one....

        That's just a terrible narrator voice. Jeez. Raspy monotone and annoying.

        Holding is dating some famous football player, just living his best life. He isn't even in England anymore, how the hell is he under contract still ?

          His kids are going to have Haaland/Henry level potential

          Nice interview, it's clear he is not Arteta's fan but does not go hard into it, and only speaks well about the club. Have to say I forgot he was still playing and did not know he made the money move.
