‘Arsenal have lost control...Ozil has cost them a fortune’ – Ramsey backed in contract talks

The Gunners' attitude to giving their players new contracts is baffling, former Liverpool and Wales striker Dean Saunders has said

Arsenal have placed themselves in a difficult position over the future of midfielder Aaron Ramsey, according to Wales legend Dean Saunders.

The 75-time capped international striker cannot understand why the Gunners have left it so late to open contract talks with the 27-year-old midfielder, whose deal is up at the end of the season.

He believes that they should have been more prepared after being burned previously by the case of Mesut Ozil, who only stayed at the club after being given a bumper offer as it seemed other teams were closing in .
