Every.Single.Attack where he got the ball in a somewhat dangerous position ended with him passing back to Arteta or a CB or losing possession rather than even attempting a nice pass in


That simply isn't true. He may have done it a few times, (if Opta/FourFourTwo would ever release the stat zone app on Android, I could tell you how much it happened) but it certainly wasn't every single attack. And it's not his job anyways, as part of the double pivot, to be our creative force. I will agree that he, Santi, and Jack all had moments where they could've played Theo in it looked like, but they never even tried (except for that one Santi ball to Theo he couldn't control with his backheel).

Let's put it this way, the tottenham fans I watched with were shouting for us to pass the ball to Ramsey on every attack because they knew that's where the attack would end.

yes, I used hyperbole you're right it wasn't every last time.
