    I personally feel more confident with Ramsdale in goal when it comes to reflex saves and one v ones. Raya really hasn’t proved his ability to actually be a solid keeper other than passing and accuracy.

    I’m a Ramsdale fanboy though and not overly keen on Raya yet as I feel he needs to prove himself here before he gets the same respect Ramsdale has.

      Another rates ramsdale for his silly antics and gestures than actual performances ramsdale saving ability last season was mid table at best.

        I do see this a lot. seems just like england bias/pashun merchantry helps him out a bit. Raya doesn’t have the same PR. He just does what Arteta wants and gets on with it

        To be honest our defence this season is a lot more solid but I haven’t recalled Raya really having to do anything or make any outstanding saves.

        Ramsdale I have seen that, and he had an objectively less drilled defence last season than this because of rice and havertz etc.

        I really like Ramsdale, seems like an amazing guy and love his antics but anyone with a function set of eyes sees Raya offers the team so much more than Ramsdale. Stats back that up as well.
