Either play him centrally or don't play him at all. Christ knows why Wenger has shoved him wide again, he's worse than useless there.
I have to agree with DB10 as well; Ramsey's incessant flicks are becoming tiresome.

FFS man, how else can he keep his hair tidy, you must be either bald or have waist length hair

Figured that I would give this a bump now that he is off injured. I wonder if our form will pick up with him out of the squad?
Personally, I think that he is very overrated without any discipline to play in the middle of the park. Most of this is Wengers fault as he should be drilled, but we know that Wenger doesn't do positions.
When he got the nod on the right over Campbell, I was quite annoyed as at least Joel defends and usually sticks to position.
He is a Wenger favorite, but I really do not know why.
He took his goal well (with another flick ) but he was all over the place in the NLD. Does anyone know where he was supposed to be playing in the first 15-20 minutes?
There's a good player in there somewhere but it's all too inconsistent.
Has been pretty shocking for months now. Should have been dropped at any one of several points over the course of the season. Needs somebody to have a frank word with him explaining what his role is in the team and what he needs to do less. As it is he is just getting worse every week and is becoming more and more anonymous (other than gifting away possession needlessly/dangerously).
Cant say that we will miss him much, quite happy that it means more game time for Welbeck and Campbell, bith of whom work hard, track back and make tackles to win the ball off the opposition.
It will make us stronger. more disciplined as a team, which speaks volumes.
Being highly cynical he's got an 'injury' when he is being slated for poor form by lots of people, found it strange he was brought on the other night if he had an known slight calf strain, surely the better option would have been bring on Jeff RA instead rather than for ??

Interesting point. He didn't pull up or fall over or get hit. He just seemed to have a bit of a sit down and then stroll over to the bench and say "take me off".
