Ray Parlour has said that he wants Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta to play Aaron Ramsdale in goal against Ange Postecoglou’s Tottenham Hotspur in the North London derby.
The talkSPORT pundit has said that he would prefer to play Aaron Ramsdale to David Raya as the Arsenal goalkeeper against Tottenham Hotspur this weekend.
Arsenal will take on Tottenham at the Emirates Stadium in North London in the Premier League on Sunday.
Ramsdale has been the number one goalkeeper for Arsenal for a while now, but it seems that manager Mikel Arteta is now preferring Raya.
The Spain international goalkeeper, who joined Arsenal in the summer transfer window, started against Everton in the Premier League last weekend and featured against PSV in the UEFA Champions League in midweek.
Arsenal told to drop David Raya for Aaron Ramsdale vs Tottenham Hotspur
Parlour said on talkSPORT (6:26pm, September 22, 2023): “I would go Ramsdale.
“I would go Ramsdale, but if Raya does come in again against Spurs, he won’t let them down.
“I think he is an excellent goalkeeper, really good with his feet.
“He can ping a ball, good shot-stopper, so I have no problem with either goalkeeper in goal, but I would stick with Ramsdale because I don’t think he has done a lot of wrong.”
