The signing of David Raya from Arsenal raised many eyebrows with Ramsdale looking like a stalwart in Mikel Arteta’s team.

However, the former Brentford shot-stopper looks to have taken Ramsdale’s place in the starting line-up.

The 28-year-old has produced back-to-back impressive performances for the Gunners.

Raya said: “That’s his [Arteta’s] choice, not my choice.

“If Aaron comes back in he needs to fight for the team and to win games.

“I think it’s the first time that two top goalies are on the same team. That’s just part of football now.”
