No thanks to Podolski! Ramsey explains his prolific Arsenal run
Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey puts his improved form in front of goal down to greater composure in front of goal
Aaron Ramsey has lifted the lid on his improved form in front of goal, joking that it is no thanks to Arsenal team-mate Lukas Podolski.
The Wales international had his best campaign in an Arsenal shirt since joining from Cardiff City, proving to be an irrepressible force in the first half of the 2013-14 season.
Ramsey scored a staggering 13 goals in 25 appearances in all competitions before suffering a thigh injury in December, keeping the 23-year-old sidelined until April.
And the former Cardiff City midfielder, who won four successive Arsenal player of the month awards thanks to his prolific form, felt his improved composure was one of the key reasons behind his goal-scoring form.

Ramsey, who was answering questions during Emirates Airlines’s #AskRambo session, named Thierry Henry as the Gunners legend that he would most like to be playing alongside in the current side.
If you could have played alongside any @Arsenal legend, who would it have been? #AskRambo
