Aston Villa starlet Jacob Ramsey spies Euro chance

Aston Villa starlet Jacob Ramsey has warned that they must remain calm as they chase European football.

The Midlands club were in relegation danger under previous boss Steven Gerrard.

They are now pushing for a European place through their Premier League finish.

After a 1-1 draw with West Ham, Ramsey said, per the Express & Star: “It's one match at a time, exactly that. We still have to play Brentford away, Fulham at home and Brighton at home the last game of the season.

“Hopefully we can get some points on the board and those three fixtures can be vital to where we want to get to."

Ramsey continued: “We've been in the position before where we could have got into the top half, two or three times this season and we have slipped up every time.

“Our aim is to push up the table. You look at teams like Brighton, Brentford and Fulham and we want to be in that mix.

“Sunday was another opportunity to close that gap and really, we are a bit in between at the moment. Teams below can still catch us if we go on a poor run but if we go on a good run, we can catch those above us. We have to focus on ourselves and not worry too much about anyone else."
