RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Ramsey was brilliant when healthy this season, as he registered 10 goals and eight assists in only 23 Premiership appearances.
Ramsey joined Arsenal in 2009, but prior to this season had just seven goals in his Premier League career. While an ugly broken leg incident unfortunately stunted his early development, Ramsey blossomed into a potential star-caliber player this season. To that point, the 23-year-old boasted an early-season tally of eight goals and six assists before a thigh injury suffered on Boxing Day halted his momentum and sidelined him for the next four months. Once eventually fit again, Ramsey returned to score in three of his last four games across all competitions, most notably an extra-time winner in the FA Cup final. Since Ramsey's native country of Wales did not qualify for this summer's World Cup, the midfielder should be in top condition ahead of next season's Premiership campaign, placing him among fantasy's top attacking options.

Ramsey contributed both a goal and an assist in Arsenal's 3-0 win over Hull City on Sunday.
Ramsey just recently returned from a thigh injury that cost him several months and Sunday marked the first time he was named to Arsenal's starting squad in a Premiership game since late December. A candidate for Player of the Year before the setback, Ramsey transitioned seamlessly back into the Gunners' attack. While he opened the scoring with a 31st minute goal and added an assist just ahead of halftime, Ramsey also led Arsenal with four shot attempts (three on goal). With a favorable schedule in his three remaining games, Ramsey could be a useful late season addition to fantasy teams.

Ramsey (thigh) is back in training and manager Arsene Wenger is hopeful he will be fit for Sunday's match against Everton, the club's official web site reports.
Ramsey suffered his thigh injury on Boxing Day and has already suffered two setbacks in his recovery. While it's certainly good that he is returning to the pitch, Wenger has every reason to ease him back slowly, which should limit his fantasy potential in the short-term.
