That's surprising to hear from someone who rates him as highly as you. If he goes he can go fuck himself.
I rate Ramsey; I've just never felt that he'd stick around for the rest of his career. He's been a United fan all his life and our fans treated him horribly when he struggled post injury. They still treat him pretty badly on social media. I think whatever allegiance he feels is towards Wenger for sticking with him and giving him his chance.
His current contract is up around the same time as Wenger's. Meanwhile, United have a dearth of competent midfielders - especially homegrown - and have been interested in him in the past. They're going to be back at the top quicker than us too at this rate, so there'll probably be a sporting incentive too. It just fits.
There are dickheads at every club, pretty sure he's smart enought not to believe United fans are going to be inherently better than Arsenal's. I don't even think he was treated that badly to be honest; it's not like people were booing him for being injured but of course you'll get stick for playing like shit for a pretty long time, a good while after the injury too.
I wouldn't want to sell Ramsey (especially not to United) but I'd be tempted by silly money to be honest. Ramsey's game is depending too much on him being in absolute top form as it is pretty dangerous by nature; I thought so back when we were leading the league in 2013 even. I'd rather a midfielder who's content with dictating the tempo and offering passing options to the team in CM; Ramsey however becomes something of a necessity when we have duds like Ox or the current form of Theo occupying the forward spots.
