Ramsey: Man Utd defeat kickstarted Arsenal season

Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey believes defeat to Manchester United has kickstarted their season.

The Gunners have kept successive clean sheets in victories over Borussia Dortmund and West Brom, but Ramsey feels the club's fortunes changed in the defeat to Manchester United.

Despite the result, Arsenal were rampant in the first half and could have led at the break but for a combination of glaring misses and the impressive form of David de Gea.

"Even though there was pressure, we played well against Man United and just built on that," Ramsey said.

"We won in midweek against Dortmund and carried on and got back to winning ways in the league, so hopefully we can continue this run now.

"It was important to build on midweek and keep this run going and it is nice to win again.

"It was never going to be easy with the quick turnaround but we did well, we dug in and got the three points."
