Ramsey - I thought I'd have a go at it

13/14: Norwich City 0-2 Arsenal - Aaron Ramsey
Aaron Ramsey celebrates his goal at Norwich

Aaron Ramsey saw Olivier Giroud's cross heading his way at Carrow Road and had one thought in his mind: "I'll have a go at it."

The result was a stunning volley which flew into the top corner of Norwich City's net to send Arsenal on their way to a 2-0 victory in their final game of the Premier League season.

Ramsey is no stranger to spectacular goals - his 15 in all competitions this term include other eye-catching volleys against Sunderland and Fenerbahce. And the Wales midfielder was delighted with his latest effort.

"It was a great ball from Oli [Giroud] and I just thought 'I'll have a go at it' and it ended up in the top corner"

"We were on the counter-attack and I was [waiting] for the ball at the far post," said Ramsey. "It was a great ball from Oli [Giroud] and I just thought 'I'll have a go at it' and it ended up in the top corner. It was a nice end to a good move.

"It was important to win. Our target was always to win our remaining games in the league and we've managed to do that. We've got 79 points and that's an improvement on last season. It was important to win before we go into the FA Cup final.

"[Everyone] wants to play in finals and we have one now so I'm looking forward to that. We haven't won anything for many years now so this would be a great trophy to win and I'm sure that if we do win it, it will make us more hungry to go on, get to more finals and win more trophies."
