You want another defender?
This is not about any media gimmick.
To start with, we’ve got two very good keepers, with little gap between them (IMO), and a manager who said he would rotate them often ( I do not mean substitute them in the same game).
But ramsdale has barely played any football, despite playing a huge role in us having our best seasons in decades and becoming a fan favourite. At the very least, he should have played the Champions League games cause he earned it.
And it’s not like Raya has been putting in great performances - he has just been mid.
I feel ramsdale deserves more opportunities to at least fight for his position, as do everyone else in the team.
Raya has been okay, just alright. He hasn’t shown enough for some of us to justify him starting over ramsdal (hopefully this come with time), I would even say he has cost us points (Spurs’ first goal, murdryk’s goal, even the Newcastle goal).
To be honest, even at his best, the difference between both keeper IMO is marginal. I’m sure he will win more fans with more consistent performances. But ramsdale also deserves more games.
No one ever thought we would get relegated.
