Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey has described himself as "delighted" after scoring the first senior hat-trick of his career during his side's 5-1 win over Everton at the Emirates Stadium this evening.
Ramsey scored twice in the opening 20 minutes and completed his treble in the second half as Arsenal breezed past the Toffees in North London to move within five points of the top four.
There was also a debut goal for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and three assists for Henrikh Mkhitaryan on his first start for the club, and Ramsey reserved special praise for the club's two new signings.
"It was a great response, we needed that after the game at Swansea. We were at it from the off. Everyone was at it today, and when everyone's at it we are quality. Aubameyang and Mkhitaryan were brilliant today, you can see their link-up play. Our home record is fantastic, we need to replicate that on the road," Ramsey told BBC Sport.
The Wales international added to BT Sport: "I am delighted, it is one of the moments to remember. Full credit to the team, the game was won in the first half and hopefully we can keep this focus and quality for the rest of the season.
"If that is not (Aubameyang) at 100% then we have got a player on our hands. Plus Henrikh Mkhitaryan got a few assists. Hopefully there is a lot more to come and we can push on and finish the season strongly."
Arsenal's next match sees them take on Tottenham Hotspur in the North London derby.
