The Gunners beat Manchester City via a penalty shoot-out, with Ramsdale standing tall and producing the goods, and it couldn’t come at a better time given these David Raya rumours.
But when Brazil was reading this transfer rumour on talkSPORT Breakfast (09/08/23 at 6:30 am), he wasn’t so sure.
Well, it seems as though this deal is edging closer, especially with back-up keeper, Matt Turner, heading for the exit door, even though Brad Friedel can’t understand it.
But whilst the American provided a certain level of competition for Ramsdale, the new man set to walk through the doors will provide a completely different level.
“I don’t get this one,” said Brazil. “David Raya looks set to join Arsenal. How good was he (Ramsdale) at the weekend?
“I don’t get it, especially with that sort of money – I thought Ramsdale was great in the Community Shield.”
Arsenal going up a level
Manchester City have set the benchmark and they have two players for each position, so why shouldn’t Arsenal go down that road?
This will take the quality within the squad up a level and someone like Ramsdale should thrive off this.
He doesn’t come across as someone who is going to sulk, but take it in his stride and actually push Raya to take the gloves off him because, at the end of the day, it benefits Arsenal.
