So one goalkeeper has played 7 Premier League games this season and the other has played 5 so it’s clear that the manager wants to and does utilise two number 1 goalkeepers, that’s despite neither of them being able to keep a single clean sheet this season which shows it’s obviously hampering the team.

You think I’m talking about Ramsdale, Raya and Arteta right? Nope.

Steele, Verbruggen and De Zerbi at Brighton.

The media have had their pants in a twist all season over the situation with Ramsdale and Raya, despite there not being a situation at all, Raya is clearly number one and Ramsdale, well, isn’t. Every club (almost every club) has a number one and a back up and Arsenal are no different. So why has this been made such a big deal out of when Brighton quite literally have and use two number 1 goalkeepers to their detriment and no one has said a word?

If it’s because Arsenal are a far bigger club so it’s more of a story then that shows they don’t really give a shit about the situation, they just want to have a pop at Arsenal as usual.

    I agree with some of your points, but Ramsdale being a poor shot stopper I disagree with, he’s been quite good from what I’ve seen.

      Might be recency bias, but West Ham in the League Cup is an example of what I’m talking about. I also don’t like how he processes shots in the lower far corner.
