The triumphant return of Coutinho to England was also the night of the confirmation of a future star. The exblaugrana culminated the comeback of the ‘villains’ against Manchester United, but he did it on the wings of a 20-year-old demon called Jacob Ramsay. Born in Birmingham, and an Aston Villa youth squad since he was six years old, he made it clear by scoring the first goal and inventing the second that he is destined to reach the top.
Nine years old separate to Coutinho de Ramsey. When Barça paid more than 130 million euros to sign the Brazilian from Liverpool, the young Englishman signed his first professional contract. Was 16 years old. Everything that separated them years ago has been united by a common denominator, and a person who must be key for both midfielders to find their best version: Steven Gerrard.

‘Stevie G’ faith in Ramsey is absolute. Perhaps because parallels can easily be seen with what his explosion was: that of the neighborhood teenager who finds it difficult to hide his local accent while being interviewed for his impudence on the field.
“At the break, at 0-1, I was honest with him. He was not well & rdquor ;, said Gerrard about his pupil: “In the second half, however, he was formidable. He is a good professional and a good guy, He will be a ‘top’ footballer. Today he has shown why people talk about him so much. Losing 2-0 against United and seeing how a boy from the house grabs the game by the neck and throws it forward was very satisfying”, added the coach.
Jacob Ramsey’s explosion has ended Gareth Southgate, national coach, pointing out his name for future calls, according to English media revealed. The Midfielder debuted with the first team at the age of 18 and he has been international in all the English inferiors, so in the Aston Villa academy he surprises few, although at the same time they warn: Jacob has a two years younger brother, Aaron, that goes the same way. Some say it will be even better, so it wouldn’t be strange to see the Ramsey brothers together at Villa Park in the future. For now, the praise goes only to Jacob.
“Let the stands of Holte End sing my name, having left this Academy… I think dreams should be made of this & rdquor;Jacob Ramsey said Saturday. 10 days after Coutinho arrived, five months after he left Jack Grealish and after €140 million invested in signings in half a year, no one shines at Villa Park like their youth squad.
