If listening to upbeat bangers isn’t part of your pre-match routine it should be. Music can increase bloodflow to the brain, push you to work harder and boosts levels of the feel-good hormone dopamine. Feel good, play good: Simple.
Aaron Ramsey doesn’t profess to be a muso and he may not be up to speed with the ergogenic effects of music, but he inadvertently benefits from a bit of chest-thumping rock. “I like Arctic Monkeys and Coldplay.” Coldplay? Seriously Aaron? Well, it’s good enough for Pep Guardiola (a self-confessed super fan) it’s good enough for us.
Which album has Aaron just added to his playlist? Hit play and find out (Don't worry, it's nothing to do with Coldplay).
