Stoke City skipper Ryan Shawcross admits the HATRED of Arsenal RUNS DEEP.

The clubs have had a fierce rivalry since Shawcross accidentally broke Aaron Ramsey's leg four years ago.

"I don't think they like us and we don't like them," said Shawcross. "It was good to beat them last month. The crowd at the Britannia were really hostile, it was a difficult atmosphere for them to come into.

"We played some brilliant football, were the better team on the day and fully deserved it.

"Arsenal were fortunate it didn't go 4-0 [when Bojan Krkic's goal was disallowed], because it would have gone on to be more.

"Although the result didn't show it, we completely dominated the game and should have had a bigger scoreline. You can enjoy games like that when it's against Arsenal because there is a lively relationship between both clubs."
