If not Ramsdale, which keeper would likely be England’s #1?
Whats the option to buy fee?, im puzzled why brentford would loan out their best keeper. If the buy option fee isn’t above 50mil brentford are idiots.
- Asked about whether he’s concerned about losing his place in the England squad ahead of next summer’s European Championship due to a lack of action at Arsenal, Ramsdale responded:
Yes, of course, it is the first time I have found myself in this situation.
'The manager here [Gareth Southgate] is brilliant, he trusts the players he’s worked with before as we’ve seen in different types of ways - you’ll see Kalvin [Phillips] and Harry [Maguire] haven’t played the most amount of minutes but when they step up for England and are given the opportunity, they perform.
But of course, I want to get back into my club team. I want to get into my club team and be able to give the manager a headache rather than just have Jordan [Pickford] as the England number one and me fall by the wayside.’
On his relationship with Raya, the former Bournemouth keeper continued: ‘We work professionally really well together. We push each other in training and there’s days where I come in and I’m down because of the situation and he picks me up.
‘And for whatever reason there might be a day where he’s down and even though I’m suffering and hurting for not playing I have to stand up and be able to push him and make sure he’s ready for the weekend if he’s picked to play.’
Kalvn Phillips performed??
Performed a nasty tackle. 🤡
Don’t worry, Southgate doesn’t pick players based on form.
He does though but just not purely on club form.
The chaos people want of just picking the most inform players for every time would be a crappy way to try and knit a team together.
Pickford… Pick’s right in the name!
Just joking not hating on Pickford.
Yes he does. International form.
Or minutes played
Ramsdale has done a perfectly fine job on England’s bench. Why replace him?
The answer is to put your head down and improve yourself as much as you can, not complain to the media
The whole thing is stupid because Arteta has not been honest about the situation.
Feel bad for Rambo.
I just keep imagining the first time Arteta and Raya started speaking Spanish to each other in front of Aaron. Poor kid didn’t deserve to be dropped.
Arsenal’s goalkeeper coach is also Spanish and recommended to buy Raya a while ago (he used to coach Raya at Brentford).
It’d be easy for him to think the deck is stacked against him in many ways, don’t see him staying next season.
ffs, Ramsdale’s quote is being taken out of context. Read the original quote. He’s talking about how he and Raya work well together professionally and push each other to be better. And he says something like even though I’m suffering and hurting when I’m not playing, we help each other improve and there may be times where Ramsdale has to pick Raya up when Raya’s not playing
Suffering lmao
Quote is taken so out of context LMFAO.
Sam Johnstone is clear of both right now but Southgate will never drop Pickford.
Has he tried not being shit?
Said like he was a shoe in for number 1 when he’s actually 3rd choice.
Don’t see his position as 3rd choice in any grave danger at the moment.
signed a new contract in the summer, gets benched, and doesnt even get to play a ucl game, id b fumin,
He’s not locked to Arsenal for Europe then. They could sell him
And Raya looks shaky af
He had a couple shaky moments in the City game, but he does not look shaky af
He doesn’t look shaky af
But he looks shaky ah
Pea brained. Shoo
He flapped against spurs for their first goal as well
What about the goals he gifted against Spurs and Lens then?
He really doesn’t. He DID in the first half an hour Vs City, but after that he settled. Was also fine in the other games he played other than the Lens game where everyone was a bit shit.
