Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has told Stadium Astro that Aaron Ramsdale still needs to get better.

Arteta made the comments about Ramsdale following Arsenal’s 2-0 win against Newcastle United on Saturday.

The Gunners won the Premier League game with relative ease.

Ramsdale made some wonderful saves in the Premier League encounter in North London.

Yet again.

Mikel Arteta’s message to Aaron Ramsdale

Arteta told Stadium Astro when asked about Ramsdale: “As good as you see him, and he has to get still better because of his shades and how willing and how hungry he is as a player.”

Good man-management from Arsenal boss

Ramsdale is only 23.

Yes, he is playing well at the moment, but the Arsenal goalkeeper can still get better.

Arteta knows that, which is why he is publicly telling the 23-year-old to improve.

The Arsenal boss is also keeping the England international on his toes and does not want him to get carried away with his current form.

In our view, it is very clever and good man-management of Arteta.

We also think that Ramsdale will get better.

The 23-year-old has already established himself as the number one between the posts for Arsenal.

And he is keeping a Germany international goalkeeper – Bernd Leno – out of the team.

The only way for Ramsdale is up.
