Aaron Ramsey insists reaching Wembley is a 'big boost' for Arsenal following forgettable week for Arsene Wenger's side

Aaron Ramsey knows reaching Wembley is a big boost for Arsenal as their FA Cup quarter-final victory over Lincoln ended a forgettable week in the club's season.

The Gunners eased to a 5-0 win against the non-league outfit after losing to both Liverpool and Bayern Munich in the preceding week, leading to their elimination from the Champions League and dropping severely off the pace in the Premier League title race.

Manager Arsene Wenger had seen his side lose five of their seven games in all competitions leading up to the visit of Lincoln.

The 12-time FA Cup winners started slowly but took the lead on the stroke of half-time through Theo Walcott before Olivier Giroud, a Luke Waterfall own goal, an Alexis Sanchez strike and Ramsey's second of the season wrapped up a comfortable win.
