Ramsey withdrawal was Arsenal's call - Coleman

Aaron Ramsey's ongoing struggle for fitness has been described as "disappointing" by Wales manager Chris Coleman.

Chris Coleman has questioned whether Aaron Ramsey's hamstring injury could have been prevented after Arsenal ruled the midfielder out of Wales' squad to face Austria and Georgia in two forthcoming World Cup qualifiers.

Ramsey has not played since Arsenal's opening Premier League match of the season against Liverpool and reports suggest his recovery has been slower than expected.

The 25-year-old midfielder was one of Coleman's star performers in Wales' run to the semi-finals of Euro 2016, but Arsenal refused to release him for October's fixtures.
