Everyone knows someone's neighbour, aunt, brother cousin who can tell you about the inner workings of players details usually these are rubbish. I have just been told from what I know is a reliable source, that Ramsey's family are not happy with the way Jacob has been treated. They are saying that he has been given little choice in remaining at the Villa. Villa seemed to have been clever by offering him a new contract, his wages were in the mid range at £70,000, the increase offered would have left him still well below most of the top earners. I am speculating that he may have been told that he wouldn't be a regular starter and it all seems to add up that his future wasn't at Villa and obviously the transfer fee helps with our PSR. I can not know if what I was told is totally genuine, however it all adds up to the final outcome that he's going and I'm sure he's not happy. I personally wish Jacob all the best and hope his carer flourishes in the future as long it doesn't come back to bite us, I'm sure he has the right to gloat if it does.

I hear what your saying Scot but it’s a 2 sided coin, if he hadn’t had those injuries and had 2 storming seasons instead and city or Liverpool etc came calling I wonder would he still want to stay at villa or would he do exactly what Delph or grealish done?
I wish him nothing but the best but no matter who he is or how long he’s being here he’s not more important than sustaining the upward trajectory we find ourselves in the past few years.

If we're honest, is he anywhere near a £100k+ a week player?
His camp can feel hard done by all they like but he hasn't earned more than offered.
He hasn't been fit for 2 years and by his own admission he hasn't made progress so why does he deserve to be paid more.
He is not a top player like Ollie or Emi and his work off the pitch doesn't hold a candle to Digne or SJM.
To be honest, I won't miss him like a Milner or a Grealish. He's not special and just comes across pretty poorly in a lot of clips I've seen.

I wish Ramsey all the best also but for me when he was on the coach when we was all welcoming Villa to VP when he said "Bloody hell it's only the Conference" Put a bit of a cloud over him for me.

Daz you are 100% I was only thinking the same thing yesterday, it was a huge day for us and for a villa boy he was very blasé about it, yes it was only the conference league but it was a stepping stone and also an emotional day for most villa fans who went through the heartache of relegation. not saying he’s a bad lad but most of these football players are motivated by money and not glory like the old days

Whack, is he a Villa boy? Not that it matters.
The physio will be a lot less busy with Ramsey and Bailey going (if he does) . Not their fault but some players are held back by injuries.
