Wenger: Ramsey two months from being Arsenal ready

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger won't be rushing Aaron Ramsey back into the first team upon his return from Nottingham Forest.

On Monday, Ramsey stepped up his return by completing 90 minutes for the first time since Arsenal's 2-0 win over Sunderland at Emirates Stadium on February 20.

Despite this, Wenger insists he is still some way from being at the top level.

"He has been [sorely missed] but now he has to come back to his level," said the manager. "He is off today and he is in tomorrow [Wednesday].

"People forget he has been out for nine months. To come back to your level takes at least two months."
