00:00 Aaron Ramsey, the latest I've heard is that we're close.

00:02 So, you know, talented players.

00:06 He's not our player yet, but I hope he will be soon.

00:08 But it won't be long before.

00:11 I mean, for those who have followed the Championship

00:14 and know a little bit about the upcoming talents in English football,

00:17 it won't be long before.

00:20 I think Ramsey will be in English international form.

00:23 It's just a matter of time.

00:24 We're going to be a big part of that journey, I think.

00:29 But we don't have to force it.

00:31 We just have to... These type of players, you go with them

00:34 and then at a moment it becomes clear and then you give them a chance.

00:38 The reality is they used to be our players, they're not our players at the moment.

00:42 So you're always a little bit in that conflicted situation,

00:46 because obviously I know those players really well.

00:47 And obviously the moments we had together,

00:51 we've had very good experiences together.

00:54 But at the moment, they're not our players.

00:55 So I have to respect that the decision is not ours,

01:00 even if they're very good players that we like, of course.

01:03 We initially made sure that we had terms agreed with Andros.

01:07 And so we did offer him a deal.

01:10 But it was pending on a couple of things, mainly

01:13 why the recruitment was going for us and the recovery of some of the players

01:18 that we had that were injured through pre-season.

01:20 So it was quite transparent in that sense.

01:24 But he's been brilliant.

01:25 He's been fit, working hard.

01:27 He's been good for our dressing room.

01:31 But in terms of what we already had in the building

01:33 and the players we also wanted to bring in, we just weren't able to.

01:37 It didn't make sense for us to complete.

01:39 But my advice and

01:43 for me, is to any manager

01:47 that's still looking for a winger, to

01:51 to approach him is showing very good signs for us in pre-season.
