One Aaron Ramsey

The 22 year old Welsh midfielder has been on hot form lately. "Player has no significant weaknesses" from his characteristics at WhoScored just sums it up.

From the characteristics, we can easily understand the amount of work that he does both offensively and defensively. He is Arsenal's top scorer as of now and has an 85% success rate in tackles (from squawka). He also tops the list of successful tackles made in the EPL so far; 5 ahead of West Brom's Yacob.

Aaron Ramsey's goal against Norwich showed his supreme confidence at the moment. It was a well taken goal and no easy feat. He has answered all his critics with his performance on the pitch and that's what matters.

The improvement of Aaron Ramsey's all round game play is astounding and can only get better. With the support of the likes of Wilshere, Ozil, Arteta,Flamini etc.., Arsenal's midfield is quite dynamic and entertaining (The entertainment bit was sort of missing last season as Arsenal was hanging on to leads instead of a stroll in the park).

From the start of 2013, I guess Wenger has been devising a new method. And through the summer, we were able to keep our best players, trim away the dead weight and make some fine additions. It all started with that match against eventual Champions League winners Bayern Munich at their ground. A defense first strategy ensured Arsenal finished at 4th place last season. This season has been more or less the next step to  perfecting the game from solid platform from last season's end.
