Has he won over the Arsenal boo-boys? [have your say]

|

Aaron RamseyAaron Ramsey believes he has won over the Arsenal boo-boys and is ready to push on to the next level, according to several reports.

In recent weeks, the 22-year-old midfielder has been in impressive form for The Gunners in his preferred central role while Jack Wilshere was sidelined through injury.

Last season, Ramsey’s performances split opinion among the Arsenal faithful, as he failed to adapt to unfamiliar roles Arsene Wenger deployed him in. However, the Wales international has managed to silence his critics this term and is arguably been one of the club’s better players.

Ramsey broke his leg three years ago, which ruled him out of action for nine months, but the midfielder now believes he is making up for lost time:

‘Last season was frustrating for me. I had a bit of stick, but I was not playing in my main position and had obviously been through a lot.

‘I think people are starting to realise now that I am coming back, looking sharp again – and there is no better feeling than winning people over, proving you are capable of doing a good job and you are a good player.

‘I am confident in myself and think I can push on to the next level now.’

Ramsey has made more appearances this season (44 in total so far) than he did in the last campaign (42), and it seems he’s determined to go from strength to strength which is great to hear.

I have no doubt that Ramsey will get better and better with time, just as long as he continues to play in his preferred role and steers clear of injury.

The Welshman has shown a lot of desire in recent weeks, and his work-rate is absolutely phenomenal. It’s strange to think this was the same Aaron Ramsey everybody was slating week in, week out on Twitter!

Has Ramsey silenced his critics?

    I was one of those who thought he should be sold last summer but I am a convert now. He is not outstanding creatively, technically or defensively but he contributes enough in each area to be a good, balanced midfielder. At the age that he is he has the potential to be a very effective midfielder.

    He surely has. Look at our midfield and he’s the man doing all the donkey work. How I wish those who used to slate him would apologize to him for their impatience!
