Annoyed that had to be telling people off on the Arsenal Facebook page who were celebrating Ramsey’s injury. Who celebrates an Arsenal player’s injury? And it’ not like fucking Vieira’s going to tear off his tracksuit and replace him in the next game either. We have some callous fans. Ramsey has his limitations but some comments are uncalled for
That is disgusting. I haven't been Ramsey's biggest fan in the past but it's clear that this year, being free from injury (until now at least), he has contributed a lot to our attack. He may not be scoring as much as he was in 2013/14 but he is heavily influencing our attacking shape and movement with his direct play and vertical runs.
Maybe it is the lack of other options now that Cazorla is out and we have a bunch of shitsters in midfield but I really appreciate Ramsey these days whereas there were times in the past I hated the sight of him in the starting lineup. I actually look forward to him being in the starting lineup these days and find myself pissed that he'll be injured over such an important period. I still get frustrated with his incosistent technique and his tendency to end up running around in circles before releasing the ball, but after Ozil, Sanchez and possibly Lacazette he's probably our most important attacking player. What that says about the quality of the squad is something else entirely.
