Unai Emery insisted he was happy with Aaron Ramsey’s performance in Arsenal’s 2-1 win over Blackpool on Wednesday night.

Ramsey played the full ninety minutes of the Carabao Cup tie, shortly after the news broke that he will leave the club on a free at the end of the season.

When quizzed on Ramsey’s future Emery was coy and instead said he was happy with how the Welshman had played.

“For me, he worked very well,” Emery told Sky Sports.

“I spoke with him last week and I want his focus with us.

“I am very happy with his performance, with his work and on the whole he helped us.”

When asked about Ramsey's contract situation again, he added: “For me it's on the pitch. Each training, each match like today.”
