General transfer rumours

Anyone able to explain this?
Feels like spending for no reason
Is raya a passer, i didnt think so but im probably wrong

Arsenal going for the most spent trophy
David Raya is way too good for a backup keeper but shows the seriousness of Arsenal’s ambitions
Raya will undoubtedly be the starter. He is better than Ramsdale at all aspects of football and goalkeeping.

Arsenal are a top side now so the margins of improvement will be small. Replacing a below average PL goalkeeper for an above average one is about as large of an improvement they could make right now (after all the other moves they made).

Do you really think of Ramsdale as below average?

Undoubtedly. He saved less shots than expected last season by a decent margin. He is too spirited and not calm enough. Slightly too chaotic, and worse at everything than Raya.

I think being the arsenal keeper is a completely different role to being the brentford keeper.
Put ederson on that scale

Dont get me wrong i think ramsdale is shite. Like a pickford lite. But id still expect him to be the starter

Yeah you're right. It is a different gig and a top side wouldn't have the same emphasis in certain areas. But no way Arsenal are spending that on a backup keeper that happens to be better than the starter.

But we'll see. I just think its close to 99% Raya gets the starting job.
 
At which point does it become clear that they’re doing things very right?
