Ramsey has a serious knee injury.... What more do you think you should be told, and what difference would it make to you
If its an ACL they should just say so, he'll probably need surgery. They used to report these things.

Like I stated, its just being a little connected to our players.

Luton are doing a lot better than us, very few changes and the ones they did had quality and experience for a fraction of what we paid.
