Arsenal's Ramsey hails summer signing Welbeck

Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey has heaped praise on summer signing Danny Welbeck.

The 23-year old striker, who joined the Gunners from Manchester United for £16million on deadline day, scored a double for England in their 2-0 win over Switzerland in Basel in Euro2016 qualifying on Monday night.

Welbeck comes to north London after failing to really reach his true potential at Old Trafford but Ramsey is expecting him to make a positive impact at the Emirates Stadium.

"He showed for England what a good player he is with those two goals," Ramsey said.

"He's a player who is very good technically, can get in behind teams and score goals.

"I think he will bring something different - the runs in behind, his pace.

"His power and his finishing will benefit us for the rest of the season."
