There was a bit with Arsene Wenger and the crowd. The atmosphere was like nothing else.The Stoke fans were really up for it, they generated a great noise and Arsenal hated coming to the Britannia.First challenge, Id win the ball but Id go right through whoever I was pressing against. We used to not let teams out. If they wanted to play out wed set it up so they could play out to the centre-half, but I would full-on sprint, everyone would be behind me and that just gets the crowd going.Once we got the crowd going, they were on the back foot.Another former Stoke man, Dave Kitson, previously told talkSPORT that Stokes excessive aggression against Arsenal directly led to Ramseys horror injury in February 2010.Ramsey suffered a horror injury after a challenge by Shawcross2

He said: We crossed the line because we went hell for leather to try and win that game and be aggressive, which was a reflection of the way Tony [Pulis] wanted us to play.We didnt go out to break anyones leg. We did go out to be physical and in that game we crossed the line.Six months after that incident, Wenger took aim at Pulis tactics and labelled Stoke a rugby team.
