This is an odd case. We often say Wenger doesn't set instructions for his players but Wenger has openly said to the press that Ramsey should hold back on the goal hunting and play a tidy game. Focus on the basic and the goals will come. Help the defensive side. So what happened?
Also, we really need to get beyond this untouchable player bias. It's ok to blast Pod's lazy attempt to track back but say nothing of Ramsey's overall game? Season in fact?
Ramsey's poor performance was mentioned on the night by several people. Wenger's fault. Obviously the player needs a few games to get back to the required level. But leaving him on to get those minutes when he was knackered and we had started to struggle was stupid. And if Wenger really wasn't pleased with his instructions not being followed then even more of a reason to sub him. All that aside, commenting on his bad game is a long way from suggesting he be sold or swapped.

Per had a poor game but he's right about this one. Tactically clueless as Merson said. Wenger's a lost cause but the player's should have also known better. Assess the situation and adjust your game.
No player is untouchable...not Ozil, Ramsey, Wilshre or anyone..... There are no figures left in the entire club with that kind of gravitas. Wilshere has been getting slaughtered on here for age's and Ozil is catching up. I've been criticising Ramsey all season but I don't buy the idea he's just taking to the pitch seeking to serve his own personal gains and to hell with anyone else.
It is the sort of thing that is put forward when frustration with a player and club reaches fever pitch and people can't actually formulate a coherent objective debate for his slump. But I don't buy it.
It's a stretch to talk about his motives but I wouldn't say it's a stretch to say he had a selfish game. It happens. Instead of doing what you need for the team, you get players focused on trying to get back to where they were before injury or when they were on form. But Wenger told him to do a job for the team and he hasn't for some reason.
Fairly put.....
Although perhaps Wenger gave him the 'do a job for the team' spiel after the game rather than before it. As we know he isn't famed for his specific and lengthy instructions to players.
"Goalscoring" midfielders of Ramseys ilk are the most cowardly in the game.
If they want to score goals that badly why not sign up as strikers? When Giroud got injured he could have spared us Sanogo and by letting the boss know hes stepping up to the plate.
But no, he doesnt want to be expected to score goals more games than not, he wants to hide behind his "im only a midfielder me, goals are a bonus!" thing while abandoning his partner. Unlike his buddy Bale who became a forward from left back, he knows he'll get fooking found out.
Selfish cowardly boy who knows hes blagging it.
Now that's what I'd call harsh.
Frank Lampard the coward
