Ramsey convinced Wales can go where Arsenal failed: Stop Rooney

Arsenal's Wales captain Aaron Ramsey is convinced they can silence England ace Wayne Rooney tonight.

Ramsey saw at first hand the form Rooney is in after the Manchester United striker struck a hat-trick against Arsenal last week.

"Rooney is a great player. He can create something from nothing and he is in great form at the moment, so it will be important to try to keep him quiet," said Ramsey.

"Obviously he is going to get a chance at some point, but hopefully we can react to it quickly enough to prevent it resulting in a goal.

"He has proved this season that he is back to his best. He has already scored goals and I'm sure he will be a threat. But hopefully we can deal with him."
