Hard one to throw him in for but then they all are - at least here you'd expect he can focus on defending as opposed to final third stuff. I get frustrated with big clubs stockpiling youngsters so think we should play him. If not now then when?

My position is more that generally speaking we should be looking to play Ramsey for the next few months. Don't mind horses for courses but players playing in their best position would be my preferred approach. Also, Gordon is shite.

Play Ramsey. We paid £4m for him, shouldn't be stockpiling lads if we don't see a use for them.

It is going to be a horrible tournament for the purist isn't it.

Quite interested in this. Given you write a little bit about the England national team, don't you think any robust analysis of their playing style needs to take into account how the laws are applied in their domestic league. Note this isn't specifically VAR related but is general rule related.

This sort of carry on is pathetic. So much of what you put on his is reactionary in the extreme.

That's just ridiculous hyperbole.

Only thing you can say is when one team are trying to con every decision, it makes things tricky.

Derived from international fans perceiving local fans as overprotecting local (I.e. academy) players I think. So in the stadium everyone loves Curtis Jones but online he's seen as taking the space that could be used for a fun new signing.
