Aaron Ramsey

[1989_claret]

Has apparently turned us down according to Sky Sports. If this is true then you can’t fault the ambition from Pace

[Elizabeth]

If we have the money for Ramsey let’s hope that is a good sign for this window

[Milltown1882]

Good to see a transfer window approach that begins beyond the Bet365 Stadium

[elwaclaret]

Agent trying to drum up interest…. We may have spoken to Juve. It just depends what you consider an ‘official’ approach.

[1989_claret]

I’d be impressed if we’ve even spoke to Juve tbh

[warksclaret]

Tomorrow I am going to make an offer on a Rolls Royce-it wont be the asking price, as there is no way I can afford it, but I will make sure my motoring friends find out

[GodIsADeeJay81]

Whenever he scores, famous people seem to pass away

Don't want that being associated with Burnley

Come on warks , let’s move on from the cynicism that came with Garlick. We have to back Pace for one very good reason. We have no choice!

[PadihamThickNeck]

Apparently he’s turned us down yeah he laughed at the Universal Credit we have offered him.

He’s on €400k a week at Juventus

Probably asked Roberts and Hennessey to have a word, wonder if they have the number for Bale ?

KRBFC usually has a good answer here.

Big signing on fee to allow wages to remain close to our current structure means the player isn't missing out on wages.

He will already know he's never going to get close to £400k a week again, that was his biggest money move ever.

[elwaclaret]

Probably asked Roberts and Hennessey to have a word, wonder if they have the number for Bale ?

Number for bale…. “Four”

[warksclaret]

Don't tell me you believe this happened. In that case we can afford two Ross Barclays .Roll on. I will always back Pace on genuine attempts but this one.......

[Elizabeth]

I’m of the impression that it broke from Ramsey so yes

[PadihamThickNeck]

If we have the money for Ramsey let’s hope that is a good sign for this window

We will end up with Gordon Ramsey on a loan till end of season.

[PadihamThickNeck]

Gordon’s back on the grass so he might be fit to play in 7 weeks.

[Elizabeth]

I’m not going to let my disappointment at Saturday’s woeful performance against a relegation rival remove all my hope that something will happen. It’s up to others what attitude they adopt

[arise_sir_charge]

Personally, the most surprising thing about this one is that we haven’t yet had someone come along to say he’s crap. Usually happens when we are linked with any kind of well known star.

Well my mate who happens to be a Juventus season ticket holder…………….!

I can fix this for you

I wouldn’t say he’s crap, but he does have an injury record that makes Robbie Brady look like an ever present!

[ClaretTony]

When I think of Ramsey I always think of the goal he scored against us in the 3-3 draw, the day Andrew Cole chased Darren Purse up the tunnel.

[claretburns]

Story broken by Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio, never heard of him before so no idea if this story is credible or if he is the Italian version of Jim White who knows F all.

[TsarBomba]

Di Marzio is well respected.

Can’t get my head around the cynicism, tbh.

Our intent in the market has moved light years ahead from where we were 12+ months ago, and still we have people moaning.

[Gp8419]

400k a week I mean that’s just ridiculous it’s no wonder the love is going out of the game crazy.

Di Marzio may be respected but he is only repeating what he has been told, and Ramsey is looking to move back, and his agent wants to raise Ramsey’s profile and make him appear in demand…

I'm quite sure agents do that sort of thing, but if Ramsay's agent was playing that game I think he'd want a higher "start the bidding" team than Burnley. He'd probably mention Villa or Wolves, or perhaps even Spurs.

I think they are the ones the agent are trying to flush out by mentioning us, tbh

[Vegas Claret]

He'll probably end up at Newcastle on 300K a week

[gandhisflipflop]

When I think of Ramsey I always think of the goal he scored against us in the 3-3 draw, the day Andrew Cole chased Darren Purse up the tunnel.

What a good goal it was too. I remember telling my mate at the time that this lad was highly thought of. Wasn’t expecting a goal like that though.

[Woodleyclaret]

Apparently back in the day we tried to sign him from Cardiff but got knocked back
We need a new cm but I don't feel he's the one

[Newcastleclaret93]

Ramsey would be an incredible signing. Just the type of player we need, someone that can retain the ball but has the physical attributes to cover box to box. He would certainly add to the goal tally from midfield.

[Johma]

400k a week I mean that’s just ridiculous it’s no wonder the love is going out of the game crazy.

Give him 50k a week and 2 mil for signing on

[The Hung Juror]

Now Aaron, we have had interest from Newcastle and a team called Burnley. What's your thoughts?

[ashtonlongsider]

Good player as Ramsey can be, any suggestion of getting his services would be impractical given his injury record. It's good to be ambitious as we need bodies in, and in quickly at that, but I personally would be more comfortable signing players who can potentially hit the ground running for the next 21 league games.

[scamander]

I'm not doubting that he would improve us significantly but we need someone without his injury record. We have a finite amount to save ourselves with. Though I appreciate injuries are always a risk we want to avoid putting our eggs into a physio's basket.

He might flourish at a club where he is in the middle wirh two others and can be eased in. Unless Dyche has him playing off the front man he'll be playing in a midfield pair and asked to do a lot of work.

In any case here's hoping we can nab a few players

[NewClaret]

Agree with ashtonlongsider and scamander. This is obviously not happening either way, but not what we need if it were.

What does appear to be happening now is that we’re being linked with players many leagues above what we have in the past, which can only be a good thing in terms of ambition.

[Quickenthetempo]

It was only last week, that posters on here, were laughing at the thought of signing 150k a week Anthony Martial on loan.

They might fall off a chair reading this.

Yes, I started that thread and received plenty of ridicule for it. Now we are discussing the merits of Ramsey currently on £400k a week as if he is a viable prospect. Laughable.

[Johma]

NOBODY
is going to give him 400k a week
Or even half of that

[Jamesy]

I bet Newcastle would pay him half of that.

[Herts Clarets]

When I think of Ramsey I always think of the goal he scored against us in the 3-3 draw, the day Andrew Cole chased Darren Purse up the tunnel.

And i think of the home game a couple of seasons back when Tarkowski allowed his index finger to make contact with Ramsey's shoulder and Ramsey produced a cross between someone stepping on a land mine and a Tom Daley style plummet back to earth. As ever when we play that lot the ref bought it an awarded a penalty.

Yes I remember this blatant act of cheating very well. James Madison has now taken on the mantle of being the biggest cheat in the Premier league since Ramsey went abroad.

Not a chance

A good reminder CT! Now that was funny!

Didn't Purse get a red card that day but the Welsh FA overturned it so he could play in the FA Cup Final?

[claretblue]

from BBC website:

According to reports, Ramsey has already rejected an official approach from Burnley as he holds out for a move to a more high-profile Premier League side.

[Myk]

Doubt he would come with Barnes kept trying to kiss him all the time

[Woodleyclaret]

Re Madison diving he's got one of the best tutors in Vardy at Leicester

[Roosterbooster]

Give him 50k a week and 2 mil for signing on

Even if it was just a year, he'd earn 4.6m from that deal.
If anyone offered 90k a week or more, he'd earn more in that first year from them.

The signing on fee would need to be loads more
