Any ideas why Arsenal are going after Raya?

Wanted him for a while, he's seen as a slight step-up on Ramsdale at present, would probably come in as number one for a year or two until Ramsdale develops further.
That's the rationale anyway, I don't know if I agree with it. I'd rather we spent the money elsewhere too.

Weird one for me as well. Also don’t understand why Chelsea are spending so much money yet are going into another season with Kepa as their number 1, he is so shit. Seen they’re linked with Robert Sanchez but that seems like a 1a 1b situation at best.

Think it’s also because Forest have interest in Matt Turner so if we can get a bit of money for him and knock down the Raya fee, then the overall cost may not be that extreme. But as with Djed, not sure having two “first choice” keepers is a good thing.

I hate what football Twitter has done for the reaction to this. Should he be permanently stood on his line?

Seen a lot of Arsenal fans leaping on it because people did the same when Ramsdale conceded similar.
The problem is most of the discourse on social media is from simpletons who don't understand football, frankly. Anything remotely tactical they don't care about. They worry more about a player's FUT stats than they do understanding the way teams set up.
It's the same when people/pundits berate teams for playing out from the back when it goes wrong yet refusing to acknowledge the countless times it works as intended. And unfortunately whilst most of these dickheads are fucking off out the game through sheer churn, the media seem intent on replacing them with dickhead YouTubers who only understand how to clickbait a game.

Think that struck a nerve lol I just absolutely detest how simplistic the coverage of the men's game is in this country.
They gave Gary Neville a touchscreen and he showed a few simple pressing concepts and everybody thought he was a visionary until Sky quickly realise they get more clicks by baiting Roy Keane into being grumpy instead.

Thogden was fucking all over the Sky Sports coverage last night. Rory Jennings constantly on Talksport as well. Depressing how low the bar has got. Talent? Not needed. Experience? Unnecessary. Big mouth and a social media following? When can you start?
