Re: Corners- what is going on
I struggle to think of a bigger waste of space at the club than this guy. We’re awful when we have a set piece and dreadful when defending one. I’m assuming he’s a mate or relative of VK because I’ve no idea why he’s still in post.

Re: Aaron Ramsey injury
The precise nature of the injury is, quite simply, none of our business. I find the obsession with being told the details of a player's injury, or illness, weird in all honesty. If the player or the club, or both, wish to remain silent on the exact injury then so be it.
