He takes more risks, I feel, as he’s generally better on the ball and so trusts his abilities more to pull off the more difficult passes. This contributes to the nerves watching us playing out from the back. Things feel more on edge at times. Ramsdale is much more likely to hoof it up if he feels there’s a strong chance he’ll give the ball away.
It’s true but he also has some awful decisions on some of those more risky passes. Two that pop to mind was trying to hit Rice just outside the 18, on the run with two defenders closing down (can’t remember the opponent). As well as the one last game that Palmer won. That one especially I can’t fathom the pass he’s trying to make there.
Ramsdale is far from perfect on short balls but I feel like despite being a better passer that Raya has somewhat poor decision making. All that said we’ve only seen 6 games so Raya may settle down over time, especially as we’ve tried to play from as far back as possible in recent games.
