Aaron Ramsey turned up the heat on his Premier League rivals as he looks to add another PFA Fans’ Player of the Month title to his September award.
The Arsenal midfielder loves Wales and the Welsh public love Ramsey, as was proved when even the Cardiff fans stood to applaud their former player who made a dramatic return to his homeland.
Ramsey’s first goal for Arsenal in the 3-0 win at the Cardiff City Stadium was greeted with universal acclaim, and it was unlucky for the home side that he made it 13 for the season late on.
Olivier Giroud has arguably been the Gunners’ stand-out performer this month, but Ramsey is hard to ignore. And don’t forget the impact made by Mathieu Flamini who was also on target.
It was a great day for Ramsey and manager ArseneWenger said after the 3-0 win: “He has matured so much over the last few years and he scored two great goals.”
It was also a good day for Romelu Lukaku and Everton as the on loan striker took his league tally to eight goals in nine Premier League games for the Toffees.
Lukaku played a big role as Everton put Stoke to the sword in an emphatic 4-0 win – all of which begs the question...why the hell do Chelsea keep sending him out on loan?
But the architect of Everton’s big win was GerardDeulofeu who opened the scoring, and the floodgates. The 19-year-old former Barcelona player earned his chance in place of Kevin Mirallas and Stoke could not cope with his strong dribbling and accomplished passing.
Has he done enough to earn your vote? Or maybe the Cole cats from the East End of London – Carlton and Joe – will curry favour after their goalscoring heroics in West Ham’s 3-0 win against Fulham. The choice is yours.
