Aaron Ramsey

I'd much prefer he was fit, he looks a great player and he played a big part for us, but we're quite capable of scoring without him.

He only started 8 games for us, coming off after 26 minutes in his final appearance and we then scored 4.

In the period since he first signed for us there have been 16 games, in which we've scored 39 goals.

We've scored 18 goals when he was on the pitch.
We've scored 21 goals when he wasn't on.
 
I was originally a McGree and Forss man, but have come round to a Ramsey and Forss preference if all fully fit. Failing that Ramsey and McGree either side of Chuba, but with Ramsey on the right, not McGree.
 
I don't want to get drawn into comparisons and doing other players down in doing so at this time. End of season fine, but right now, whoever is selected we need to completely get behind.
I would personally choose Ramsey left, Akpom central, Forss right, behind Archer if I could have a choice.
Great to have McGree and Jones too, without having to consider shuffling people.
 
Forss is the bigger miss for me.

He's got more of a goal threat.

I do wish we had all 3 fit - McGree, Ramsey & Forss.

Having those 3 options for 2 spots, then Jones as backup was perfect.

Now we're down to 2...
