Jack Wilshere has gotta be up there. Spurs fans nicknamed the injury prone midfielder "tampon" - in for one week....out for three. |  | | |

Who actually rates Townsend though?
Ramsey and Kane were both excellent last year so their rating is probably higher than their actual level I suppose that happens a lot, players are rated more on their current or recent form than over the longer period of their careers. [Post edited 6 Sep 2015 20:32]

Ramsey is quality, very glad he's welsh.
I'd pick him over wilshere every time. |  |

I did think afterwards that Hodgson is probably the one of only three people in the world (other than Townsend and his mum). | | | |

Ramsey seems to be very much a form player. Capable of being brilliant for a couple of months then dropping back into mediocrity. |  |

No. He just had two bad games in a couple of days. | | | |

Well he's definitely in the latter category at the moment, based on his performances in the last two games.
His biggest problem is he slows everything down, trying to run the game all by himself, so many times he's ended up having to play the ball side ways when a forward pass would have been on if he'd played quicker. It reminds me of the best footballer at school who just hogs the ball all the time.
Added to that in the last two games we've had King and Edwards alongside him, whose technical limitations are obvious, and it's little wonder we've struggled to play with decent tempo. Joe Allen has been missed, and even ratboy dare I say! | | | |

Of course he is, Barcelona are known for buying any old rubbish (watch this space)
The most idiotic comment I've seen on this forum.
Gowerjack you'd better start watching ladies netball because you know feck all about football. (thanks for the ticket by the way - much appreciated.) | | | |

Good points there I think. Players don't operate in a vacuum. I'm sure Ramsey doesn't feel so much pressure with Cazorla, Sanchez and the others within arms reach. [Post edited 6 Sep 2015 20:56]

I'm not saying that they aren't decent/very promising players, just that the current hype/achievement balance is way out of kilter. Ramsey I think has done enough to deserve much of the hype. He needs to pull his socks up for Wales though. It's not happening, and it's not enough. | |

Ramsey, Allen and Ledley give the midfield a good blend. It is easier for Ramsey to play with Allen keeping moves going and Ledley doing the Robbie Savage role. It's going to be hard for him with both of them out. That said, he was way below par on Thursday and not great today.
We are only half an hour from qualifying if Belgium stay 0-0 though! | | | |

Everything that should have gone through him didn't. That's what was wrong with today, no creativity, like a damp squib.
Poor for Wales for last few games. |  |

Belgo have played like a pile of sh1te, but I still think they'll nick one. It's been that kind of day. | |

IMO he was neck and neck with Suarez up until he got injured the season before last for best player in the PL, he was outstanding. He's never really hit the same heights in a Welsh shirt. |  | | |

Ramsey is almost the perfect midfielder. But as someone alluded to already, he tries to do too much sometimes. Especially for Wales. Too many Hollywood passes attempted today but he still had a good game, and to be fair he ran himself into the ground today. |  |

Wazza will soon be number 2 in the Premier League goal scoring charts and before long he'll be the only player to have scored 200 PL goals for one club.
If that's overrated I wish Swansea had one just as overrated. |  |

Walcott, Zaha, Rooney, Mitrovic, Shaw and an awful lot of others could be added to the list.
Of course there's always the one and only Tom Ince.
Total legend in whatever mirror he's looking at!! |  |
