Aaron Ramsey returns to Arsenal squad for Everton match
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger says midfielder Aaron Ramsey will return to the squad for Sunday's Premier League match against Everton at Goodison Park.
The 23-year-old Wales international scored 13 goals in 27 games before suffering a thigh injury in the 3-1 victory at West Ham on Boxing Day.
The fourth-placed Gunners are just four points ahead of Everton, who have a game in hand, and face Wigan Athletic in the FA Cup semi-final at Wembley on 12 April.
After a 6-0 defeat at Chelsea and 2-2 home draw with Swansea, Wenger felt his team had "turned a corner" with the 1-1 draw with Manchester City at Emirates Stadium.
Arsenal are seven points adrift of leaders Liverpool with six games left.
Wenger said: "Every game becomes vital. We have a small percentage [chance of winning] the title, but we have to give everything to make it possible."
