I think if it were me as Ramsey, and my motivation was being near kids and playing for my club, I would say “Make me your top earner, and give me £1-2m bonus if we are promoted, and leave it at that.”

Deals can be done and there are ways of cutting them. That is how I would cut mine if I were him. No risk to the club (heart), but an upside to represent my worth if my impact is that much of a gamechanger.
A large slice of merchandise/shirt sales is normally a lever in these situations. My head says he's teasing us, but my heart would like to see him back - to be fair we got most of the way down the track with Bale last year before LA came in, so perhaps it's not that much of a stretch.
