Aaron Ramsey is enjoying his preseason in Arsenal's midfield.
While he knows there will be strong competition when Cesc Fabregas and Abou Diaby return to full fitness, the Wales captain is excited by their progress.
"Me, Jack and Alex are starting to build a relationship and are doing well together," Ramsey told Arsenal Player.
"We've shown that we are more than capable of playing together and are connecting together. It is an interesting combination and one that I hope I can be apart of.
"In the middle, we did well [against Cologne] and it was a good work-out."
