Aaron Ramsey has named only one Arsenal player in his Ultimate Team for FIFA 15 - himself.

The Welshman, appearing at the Apple store in Regent Street, London, on Thursday night engaged in a Q&A session before announcing the team he likes to play with on the game.

His controversial selection even received light-hearted boos from some sections of the crowd.

Former Chelsea defender Ashley Cole was in his XI as was Cesc Fabregas - Ramsey was jeered when he read out the Spaniard's name.

Alongside himself in midfield he picked Real Madrid pair Cristiano Ronaldo and Gareth Bale, while he also selected Lionel Messi and Arsenal legend Thierry Henry up front.

Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard and German World Cup winner Phillip Lahm was selected in the holding midfield roles, while Vincent Kompany and Thiago Silva lined up alongside Cole at the back.

Italian legend Gianluigi Buffon, who played his 500th game for Juventus this week, was picked in goal.
