Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey hails 'brilliant' derby win: We gave everything today

Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey hailed their stunning derby win over Tottenham.

Ramsey believes the 2-0 victory will lift everyone connected to the club.

"It's brilliant - we needed that," the Wales international told Arsenal Player. “We wanted to capitalise on being at home and we had a good first half.

“We had the game wrapped up at half-time really, we just needed to be clever and smart in the second half and we managed to keep a clean sheet as well.

“I think everyone was ready to give everything out there today. We covered a lot of miles out there, so we really wanted to get that win and we gave everything we could to get that.

“We defended well, went forward well and attacked well. We created a few opportunities and played at a good pace. It was an Arsenal performance."
