I dont think Ramsey decision making is d problem. Its more to his shooting accuracy need to improve. Those long shots must be Wenger instructions. He n Flamini being the 2 deepest midfielders, probably abit in front of Flamini. He had to help attacking unit but in d same time to protect Flamini and back 4. Lets say if he pull a thru pass and it had been intercepted thus leading to quick break which is 1 of Soton strong points, slow pace Flamini n Per might get exposed n overran. How us want a good DM to protect d back 4 but not to think a good DM too need protection from being expose?

Ramsey just took his chances n testing luck, if it go on target and in, many will be praising how awesome that Lampard-ish goal. If dint, offtarget n out then team could just get back, regroup n reposition for goalkick. No risk of being caught on d break. We surely dont want it to be "another day of M.Utd" joke, rite?

From last season which he is the star performer, Ramsey benefited having 1 DM (arteta) and 1 CM (wilshere) that share the workload of screening back four. He is free to roam and make late runs into penalty box supporting giroud/santi/ozil. But this season, he is being forced to sit deep and dictating play from there. Maybe the mentality of sitting deep is not quite there.
He is a bit rusty on long shots too. however, if the thru pass has been intercepted, the receiver shld track back again and ramsey covering. and he also must ensure that his thru passing is accurate too. if not, the worst scenario of being intercepted and counterattack will happen.
so, alongside improving his long shot, his passing also need to be accurate. he is nowhere near godlike mod of fab4, which the thru pass is like a normal pass to fab4. lol... and the decision making, whether to pass or shoot.
long shoot require a great technique which ramsey posses, but unsure whether he possess physical attribute to shoot from far like stevie g or lampard.
