Arsenal fan and TV host Piers Morgan remains sceptical about David Raya, even after the Spaniard has become Arsenal’s first-choice goalkeeper ahead of Aaron Ramsdale.
Ramsdale had shown promise as Arsenal’s goalkeeper since winning the starting position from Bernd Leno. However, Mikel Arteta changed the dynamic with the signing of Raya, who is known for his skills with the ball at his feet.
While Raya is considered to be the better and more experienced goalkeeper overall, he has had some unsteady performances since joining the team. Despite the prevailing sentiment, not everyone is convinced of Raya’s superiority over Ramsdale, and Morgan is among those who have reservations about the Brentford loanee.
Speaking on the Spaniard in a recent interview, he said to Talk Sport:
“I think we’ve still got issues.
“I’m not convinced by [David] Raya in goal, I think he was very jittery for much of the game.
“I don’t think he’s an upgrade on what I’ve seen so far of [Aaron] Ramsdale who must be feeling sick as a pig sitting on the bench every day watching this stuff.”
Just Arsenal Opinion
The competition between Ramsdale and Raya will take some time before it gets a clear winner, but it is very unlikely that Ramsdale will be back in the Gunners’ goal soon if Raya is not injured.

The super fan is right but Arsenal will improve playing out from the back as the Spaniard get his feet wet
“While Raya is considered to be the better and more experienced goalkeeper overall”
Where did this assessment come from? In no way was Rata ever the better goal keeper. He may have thought to be better with playing out from the back but games to date have proven otherwise. Ramsdale have been much better than Rays this season as well as last. Don’t understand the switch. Too painful watching Rays constantly flapping at ball but coming up with air instead.
