Well, Ramsey's rumoured to be close to returning. Apparently he's back in light training, and could even make the bench for Cardiff at the weekend. Will be great to have him back for the last couple of games. I imagine it'll be a case of starting Brooks in one game and Ramsey in the other Nah, just don’t bother. Don’t even call him up. We look more balanced without him.

After tonight it doesn't look as if Cardiff need him either, but to be fair for a long time I have thought Darren Moore was stealing a living from football and is easily found out.

I know the ifollow commentators jokingly said he looked like he could do ten minutes when he came on with the team after Croatia. Can't imagine he'd be close to being fit for Saturday though? Great news if so.

Great news if so. He is definitely not fit for Saturday and the above is not correct. I’ve heard he is back in training, but the rehabilitation part of his recovery. Still a long way to go yet. Unlike Page, Bulut has spoken upfront about Rambo’s injury and suggested he may need an operation, they are not going to rush him back. I don’t think he will make international week in November.

I didn't watch the Cardiff game yesterday, but spoke to someone who had and obviously assumed the commentators were being serious! Ignore me, looks like he's still a major doubt then

I seriously wouldn’t change a thing going into the November camp. Call him up if he’s fit but Cardiff probably would be happier if he sat the games out too.

I'm not sure if you were being serious when you suggested earlier that Ramsey shouldn't make the squad, or you were trolling (as a Swansea fan) - either way, it's a silly thing to say. Responding to the above: a) Croatia was just one game, we're not going to make every decision based on a single event b) you're conveniently forgetting that Ramsey was our best player in the previous qualifier c) we're playing 2 games in three days, there's no chance that Brooks will start both, and if we want to maintain the double-10 formation then we would need to bring Ramsey in.

We could bring James/Johnson in if we wanted a bit more more width and pace. We'll see. Ramsey is no longer a cert for us, and that's a good thing as it shows we have some depth.

If fit he is 100% in the squad, it's the first time I've ever heard anyone suggest otherwise. But where you said not to call him up, I think that's where the comment has come from as it's hard to believe it'd be a serious suggestion.

Ramsey would be a cert for the squad for sure, but not only would Wislon and Brooks be ahead of him for the starting positions, but James would be ahead of him as a sub. Johnson would also potentially be ahead of him, although he might be preferred as a replacement for Moore.

If he’s not played any games for Cardiff since the Swansea game it would be absolutely embarrassing. We go on about learning from the World Cup on here and if Page called him up that would be not learning from last year. I doubt Cardiff would be too happy if he had missed 10 games for them and then was out playing in Armenia.

When he’s not been playing. Turn up to training and be around the squad in Cardiff, fine. Let’s try and learn from Qatar.

Pure unaldulterated horseshite 👍 Sure. Cardiff missed him last night? We always miss him. It’s a positive we’ve had a few good results in his absence but he’ll walz back into our starting xi when fully fit. He’s different class. As for the national squad, your call for not even calling him up even when fully fit is ridiculous

It’s a pre requisite that he must be fit to even be considered, as it is for all players. You are painting yourself into a corner and, yet again, your anti-Cardiff bias is shining through, as it has on several of your posts over the last few years, on which you’ve been challenged by me and others

If he doesn’t get on the pitch and play meaningful minutes before 11th November he shouldn’t be in the squad.

Next manager but one? Maybe 4 years time. Would be similar age to Sparky when he took the job. Would love to see it. Football pedigree, bright bloke, would appeal to players.

Only if he's got the coaching badges. Allen is in the process of getting his, and both would be great options if suitably qualified.
