Arsenal youngsters Aaron Ramsey and Henri Lansbury will be playing regular football in the Championship over the next few weeks. They have joined Nottingham Forest and Norwich City respectively.
Ramsey suffered a horrific injury back in February against Stoke City and the loan spell will act as part of his recovery process. He will be at Forest until January and made his first appearance for the club in last night’s 1-0 defeat to Leicester City.
A statement on the Arsenal website read: “Everyone at Arsenal Football Club wishes Aaron the best of luck during his time with Nottingham Forest and we all look forward to seeing him once again in an Arsenal shirt in the New Year.”
It will certainly be good to see him in a pair of football boots again, pulling the strings in midfield. Perhaps he can work his way into the Arsenal team once he returns in the New Year.
As for Lansbury, he has already made a positive impression at Norwich. He played a very significant part in their 4-1 hammering of local rivals Ipswich Town on Sunday and it looks like he will get plenty of game time at Carrow Road.
The 20-year-old certainly enjoyed his time at Watford last season, so hopefully he will do the same this season at Norwich. He does have a great deal of talent and it is much better for him to be playing competitive football than sitting in the reserve side.
So Ramsey and Lansbury will be putting their efforts in away from the Emirates for the time being, but they will be back and raring to go before long as they look to force their way into Arsene Wenger’s first team plans.
