ARSENAL starts have taken to Twitter to share their delight at manager Arsene Wenger's new contract.

CONGRATULATIONS: Arsenal players took to Twitter to praise their boss's new deal [GETTY]

Midfielder Aaron Ramsey and injured star Theo Walcott sang the praises of their boss on the social media site.

16-goal midfielder Aaron Ramsey said: "Congratulations to the boss on signing for another 3 years, looking forward to building on last season's success #WengerSigns"

Walcott, who recently joined Twitter took the time to say: "Great news on the boss signing!!! Exciting times ahead #AFC"

Wenger halted a run of nine-years without a trophy, beating Hull in the FA Cup final and celebrated with a new contract.

There had been considerable doubt whether the 64-year-old would sign on the dotted line, after stalling since January.

But Gooners can rest easy knowing Wenger is committed until 2017, taking him to 21-years in charge of the Gunners.
