Your support makes all the difference.Aaron Ramsey unveiled a new celebration after scoring in Arsenal's 2-0 win at Aston Villa.
The Welshman made a 'S' shape with his hands. He has yet to reveal what it means, but speculation is rife that it is a gesture for the Gunners' midfielder Santi Cazorla, who turns 31 today but is currently out injured with a hamstring problem, and could face a lengthy time on the sidelines.
Ramsey impressed in the game, netting the Gunners' second after another fine assist from Mesut Ozil.
Olivier Giroud has opened the scoring, from the penalty spot. It was his fourth goal this week following his hat-trick against Olympiakos.
"He had an outstanding performance today," Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger said about Ramsey after the match. "I think of course he is naturally more of a central midfielder and I pushed him out wide for a while because I believe we have seen many times that when players are pushed against the line they need to shorten their technique. When they come back into the middle again, they are better players."
