Arsenal youngster Aaron Ramsey hopes to face former club Cardiff City in the FA Cup tomorrow.

"It was a great experience for everyone involved with Cardiff. We did very well together and we were unfortunate not to get the win at Wembley," said the Wales international.

"Hopefully I can do well in the FA Cup with Arsenal as well, get another chance to play on Sunday against Cardiff, show what I can do and stake my claim for a place in team.

"I was at home in the living room watching the draw with my parents. My dad actually called it! When it came out, I had loads of texts about the game and now I'm really looking forward to it.

"Cardiff City was a big part of my life. I was there for a long time. I came through the youth system there and went on to get into the first team. So it will be mixed emotions for me on Sunday, but I am an Arsenal player now and I want to win the game."
