Danny Welbeck explains why he will always celebrate goals against Manchester United

Arsenal’s Danny Welbeck has explained why he has no qualms celebrating goals against his former club Manchester United.

The England forward rose superbly to head home his fourth goal of an injury-plagued season in Arsenal’s 2-0 win over United today.

Welbeck signed for Arsenal in 2014 after spending 13 years at his boyhood club – and has developed a tendency to score against the Red Devils since moving to the Emirates.

And the 26-year-old has revealed why he refuses not to celebrate despite hit affiliation with Manchester United.

‘I grew up there and everything so it’s a special place in my life,’ Welbeck told Sky Sports after the 2-0 win.

‘But once we get on that pitch, it’s business. When you score you’ve got to be happy, haven’t you?’

Aaron Ramsey earned the Man of the Match award for his efforts against Jose Mourinho’s side and suggested after the game that Arsenal’s tactical tweak has been key to his recent form.

‘I’ve felt good recently,’ the Wales midfielder said. ‘I’m getting into good positions, playing that formation gives me more freedom.

‘We are still working on it as a team but we showed we can be effective using it. We’re delighted for ourselves and the fans.’
