The new Boss said today: “Football changes every day. It’s not easy, but it does change. I was thinking about the match today, then preparation for the match Saturday. I think Aaron is an important player for us. The contract is one thing for the club and then one thing for the player. I want him to stay with us, to work with us, to give the team big performances with his quality. I think he’s going to stay here with us.”
But he also implied that Ramsey is a strong candidate for the captainship, and perhaps he thinks he can persuade the Welshman to stay as captain (and if we are challenging for the title?) Emery continued: “It’s not yet official, this decision, but I’ve said to you that I want five captains in the team. Then we will give the numbers for the first, second, third, fourth and fifth. Aaron has the potential to be captain.”
So it sounds very much like Ramsey will be staying, whether he signs a new contract or not. May be it will all go down to how Arsenal (and Ramsey) perform next season….
