Pundit shares what Arsenal fans are completely forgetting about 25-year-old’s form last season
Nedum Onuoha has suggested that many are forgetting some of the mistakes Aaron Ramsd𒈔ale made for Arsenal last season as they now call for David Raya to be dropped.
Onuoha was speaking to after Raya made a couple of major errors꧅ in Saturday’s 2-2 draw with Che🐻lsea.
Aaron Ramsdale was unavailable for the game. But it seems fair to say that his stock definitely rose during the 90 minutes at Staꦅmford Bridge.
David Raya has not been particularly convincing since taki✱ng Ramsdale’s spot after the first international break of the seas🃏on. He was fortunate to not cost Arsenal in the win over Manchester City. And he also gave the ball away for the equaliser against Lens in the Champions League.
Arsenal fans did not appear to have much oౠf a desire to see Ramsdale replaced in the first place. So plenty would like to see the England international return to the side as soon as possible.
However, Onuoha believes many are forgetting some of the errors Ramsdale had made, particularly in the lattꦰer stages of last season.
“I think what we’re experiencing here is recency bias because come the end of last season, Ramsdale was making some mistakes which were costing Arsenal goals. But because they l🍨iked him, they cheered him on and hoped for the🦩 best,” he told .
“But I think now there’s competition between the two, or I say competitꦍion, now that Arteta has two to choose from, then the conversation is different. If you want to play in a certain style, goalkeepers will make mistakes.”
Ramsdale did make a couple of massive errors. But he also produced some outstanding performances. Few will forget his contribution at Anfield whꦺen he made a couple of world-class saves.
Ra🍸ya, admittedly, has t♚he potential to be just as good. However, with that, you have to question why exactly Arteta decided to make the move and rock the boat so violently.
The Spaniard is probably better with his feet. But the gap between the two is surel𓆏y not big enough to justify the ♍decision to sign him in the summer.
Perhaps Arteta wi🌸ll be vindicated in time. Again, Raya has the talent to prove the Arsenal boss right.
But𝔍 as things stand, it appears that Arteta’s 🤡big gamble is threatening to really backfire.
