Chris Coleman: How Gareth Bale will help Aaron Ramsey at Euro 2016

AARON Ramsey says he wants to stand out at Euro 2016 and he’s guaranteed to catch the eye thanks to his new bleached-blond hairstyle, writes Andrew Penman.

Coleman has backed Ramsey to thrive if the opposition fall for the trap that Wales are just a one man team.

“It is the one that I am really looking forward to”, he said.

As you’d expect, the reaction on Twitter was pretty biting.

Ramsey said: “To be fair, it was a bit of a shock to some of them”.

“I have had a bit of criticism but I don’t look at any social media things”, he said.

Wales goalkeeper Wayne Hennessey likened Ramsey’s hair to pop star Justin Bieber, saying: “He can pull it off – and if he can do it on the pitch it won’t matter”.

Wales midfielder Aaron Ramsey has had his say on Wales, Gareth Bale’s fitness and his bleach blonde haircut.

His importance in the side is very much overlooked, with Real Madrid superstar Gareth Bale taking the limelight.

“My main target is to help Wales get out of the group stages and then see where we go from there”.

“I want to show that I’m more than capable of standing up and proving I can play at this level”.

Ramsey and Bale could both feature as Chris Coleman’s man play Sweden in their final warm-up friendly in Stockholm on Sunday.

The Real Madrid forward will join his global team-mates today after celebrating winning the Champions League in Milan on Saturday and has set his sights on adding an unlikely European Championship medal to his collection. He is still only young as well, so maybe there might be many more for him.

I am sure that many Arsenal fans are hoping for some excellent performances from Ramsey, in the hope that Barcelona come in with a 50million bid after the competition, because, to be brutally honest, with Xhaka now at the Emirates and Cazorla back from injury, I am not sure whether Ramsey will even be in Arsenal’s first team next season.
