Former Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey has responded when asked whether his old club can win the Premier League.

The pair played in midfield together at The Emirates for several seasons, including in the Champions League.

It’s a competition Arsenal fans are keen to return to after being absent for more than six years.

Their start to this season suggests they might finally be on their way back, as they currently sit top of the league.

They had a slight hiccup at the weekend, failing to beat Southampton after dominating the early stages of that game.

However, they look set to go into the World Cup break in a fantastic position to finish in the top four.

And Ramsey has had his say on whether he thinks Arsenal could win the Premier League

‘Things looking really good for Arsenal’ – Ramsey

The Welsh midfielder failed to give his full backing to his former side in their race to win the league.

He did admit he was ‘’ with where the club is right now.

“They’re top of the league, they’ve qualified for Europe (the knockout stages) and things are looking really good for them at the moment,”

“Obviously there’s still a long way to go, but right now – at this moment – I’m really happy as an ex-Arsenal player and a fan still.

“For the fans, as well, it must be a really exciting time.”

Some Arsenal fans may be dreaming of lifting the Premier League trophy already, but Arteta’s is unlikely to be focused on that.

Arteta has maintained an almost unchanged line-up through the Premier League this season.

Keeping the key players fit is now the priority for the last few games before the World Cup.

These are likely to be more pressing issues for Arteta right now, rather than focusing on if Arsenal can win the Premier League.

And judging by Ramsey’s response, he too is not going to get carried away any time soon.
