What Arsenal legend Aaron Ramsey did to Stoke City fans after ‘not nice’ treatment during FA Cup tie

All in all, Aaron Ramsey made 369 appearances in an Arsenal shirt, scoring 64 goals and providing 60 assists under both Arsene Wenger and Unai Emery.

In 2019, Ramsey left Arsenal for Juventus shortly before Mikel Arteta became manaꦯger, a pair who were excellent together on the pitch.

Of course, at 34-years-old, Ramsey is still playing back at boyhood club Cardiff City in the Championship, where he’s managed just five appea✨rances this season.

Ramsey has been held back by a hamstring issue this campaig🐓n, but he was fit enough to return in Cardiff’s FA Cup tie on Saturday.

Cardiff came up agai🍌nst Stoke City🥂 away from home, and Ramsey sat deep in midfield wearing the captain’s armband.

And unfortunately, Ramsey was booed throughout by home f💎ans almost every time he touched the ball.

Stoke City fans boo Aaron Ramsey during FA Cup tie

Speaking to , Cardiff manager Omer Riza described the treatment as ‘n𓆉ot nice’ after Saturday’s game, even if Ramsey was able to have🌳 the last laugh on this occasion.

Riza said: “I was real𝐆ly surprised by that and disappointed for Aaron because it’s not nice.

“But he’s got a character big enough to deal with it. He’s got a lot of people around him who care for him, a lot of people who lov𓃲e him.

“So a bit of booing at Stoke will on﷽ly push him to be better.”

And at full-time, Ramsey didn’t pass up on a ch🌼ance to give it back to the Stoke fans.

The former Arsenal man walked past the home fans and gave them a good wave, as well some fist-pumps following Cardiff’༺s win on penalties, which 🍌sent Stoke out of the FA Cup.

Arsenal have already found their next Aaron Ramsey

Of course, Arsenal would certainly benefit from a profile like Ramsey in his p🍎rime in N5 right now.

The Welshman had a knack of scoring crucial goals from midfield, a pla🎶yer who had his fair share of FA Cup suc🦄cess with the Gunners too.

That being said, Santi Cazorla has spotted the next Ramsey at Arsenal, a player who is slowly developing into a more🎶 attacking player.

Either way, whilst Arsenal are away ♛in Dubai taking stock of their sea💛son, it’s comforting that Ramsey has given fans in north London something to smile about.

A proper Arsenal icon,♊ who still has something left in tank yet🌊 it seems.
