Aaron Ramsey "delighted" to be back playing

Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey has said that he is "delighted" to have returned to fitness following a lengthy spell on the sidelines through injury.

Ramsey made his first start since the opening day of the season during this evening's 3-2 victory over Ludogorets Razgrad in Sofia - a result which sealed Arsenal's place in the last 16 of the Champions League.

The Gunners were forced to come from two goals down to get the win, but Ramsey was happy with the result and with being back in the starting XI.

"Ludogorets have some top quality in their team and caught us on two counter-attacks," he told reporters.

"On a personal level I'm delighted to be back getting minutes under my belt. My target is just to stay fit and keep playing. We are in good shape going into the next game."

Arsenal's next match sees them host Tottenham Hotspur in the North London derby on Sunday.
