Ramsey speaks: I will return stronger

Midfielder Aaron Ramsey has spoken for the first time since his horrifying injury caused by Stoke City defender Ryan Shawcross, saying that he will return 'stronger'.

Ramsey suffered a double fracture to his right leg, and surgeons estimate that the recovery process will take approximately six to nine months.

In a statement issued via the official website, Ramsey said: "It is difficult for me to take it all in at the moment.

"I thought I had been progressing well so this is a real setback. It's hard to take.

"I am young and have time on my side. While it will take time for my leg to heal, I am determined and focused on overcoming this injury and hope to be back fitter and stronger than before.

"I remember what happened clearly and after the tackle went in I saw that my leg was broken and hanging at an angle.

"I have seen images of the aftermath of the collision but I don't want to dwell too much on the challenge as I can't change what has happened."
