I don't think you can blame Ramsey for not shooting it first time, there were more Chelsea players around him than Bendtner

Given that Ramsey was about the only one who was trying to shoot, and had quite a few good efforts, I don't think you can hold that one against him....if I was him, I would have been suprised to a have received the ball back from a striker who was dead centre, unmarked and in prime position.
And you don't think Bendy would have been closed down even quicker after controlling the ball?Quote:

Looking at it again, Ramsey is after the first ball from Rosicky.
Tbh, Rosicky is at fault here for playing the wrong ball :lol:
He trys to play in Bender first. FAIL.
Ramsey calls for it, and he ignores him FAIL
Then opts to put the ball right on Bender, instead of in front of him. FAIL
The only player I can see who could close him down in enough time was Bertrand (I think, number 34)Quote:
