The 22-year-old has come in for criticism from the club’s fans at times this season, but believes a settled role in the team has aided his progress

Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey has put his recent return to form down to a consistent run of games in his preferred position, citing his improved performances as proof that the shift has been a success.

The 22-year-old Wales international has been used in a variety of positions by Gunners boss Arsene Wenger this season, ranging from right-back to the left wing.

However, Ramsey has indicated that while he’s happy to help the side out with his versatility, he hopes his recent displays in the middle of midfield – which have contributed to Arsenal’s six-game unbeaten run – will see further games in his favoured role.

“I’m really pleased with my form,” Ramsey told the club’s official website. “I’m working hard and putting in some good performances, so I’m happy.

“It makes a big difference [to be in central midfield]. That’s my position and it’s where I want to play. “At the beginning of the season I was moving all over the pitch, playing left wing, right wing, right back.

“I was asked to do a job in many positions, which I’m happy to do for the team. If the manager wants me to play there, I’m not going to say no.

“But I’ve got my place back in the middle and I’m happy with that. My performances have shown what I’m capable of doing in the middle.”
