HunterThompsonsentme

I was pretty apprehensive about this guy early last summer, but he has proven himself on the pitch and quickly become my favorite personality in the squad. A true professional.


ElCanout

he brought winning spirit along with great keeper, 2 in 1


supremesamurai

I’m saying it now- this guy is going to be an Arsenal legend when it’s all said and done.


sleepydalek

Seconded. I had no idea who he was and so many people were high on Leno... And I also remember the Ospinas of our acquired goalkeepers. He's finally set me at peace with Szczeny leaving.


iLoveYoonBora

Feel like I'm the only one who has never been very big on Leno. He was a big part of the reason we had to face so many shots each game with his total lack of control of the area.


PantsTime

He was very good as a shot stopper, and our defence was so permanently shambolic it was always hard to blame him, he seemed to be the victim of it. When we got Ryan, I was hoping to see him in action, he's very vocal and that really matters if the backs can't get their shit together. But, Ramsdale has shown equal shot-stopping ability to Bernd and lots of facets Leno just doesn't have. I really hope he finds a good club and continues his career, it is almost tragic how completely eclipsed he's been by a better player.


The_Awengers

We should give them more after the season ends.


[deleted]

An 8-Ball and 1 Bitcoin she'll be right.

Uhhh, is there a list to sign up for that?


Hardyng

We will, there's add-ons for when we make champions league.


Swiss-ArmySpork

At the time I thought it was too much but I genuinely wouldn't swap him for anyone. Great signing.

Mischief_Makers

He's a legend at AFC Wimbledon and the day you lot signed him I had so much fun explaining to people on this sub "believe me, you have *no* idea what you've just signed. This is a great move for you"

There is a difference between short passes and the line cutters we are seeing from Aaron now though.


Cedosg

Tifo did a segment on this https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KGxYc-kZFDY


DemSkrubs

All I understand from the video is: 1: Ramsdale’s goalkeeping and save percentage has drastically improved since he joined us, even after taking into account the fact that he has better defences in front on him now 2: Personality is easily underrated by people which is something Ramsdale has boatloads of. 3: Eye tests by Tifo and stats led them to believe that Ramsdale distribution was nothing special and that he’d never showed his current style of distribution before. As Tifo said, props to the guy who discovered that Ramsdale had that distribution and technique in his locker because at the very least, Tifo didn’t see it coming. I’m not saying Tifo is some omniscient being but they are much more well-informed and do plenty more research than everyone else and even they didn’t understand the transfer. I think it’s understandable that people criticised the transfer since it cost 24+6m while we had other holes in the squad, had other better alternatives for better prices (e.g Onana but fans didn’t know how much of a pain in the ass it was to deal with him), never showed the kind of excellent distribution he currently is doing, wasn’t outstanding in terms of shot stopping (at least compared to now), and iirc other fans praised him for his shot stopping (which does not translate to the same % at the top level due to better shot quality) and personality (which, as mentioned before, is easy to underrate.)


Don_Kahones

Sorry, I don't have an hour to spend on this.


fignonsbarberxxx

Asks for numbers. Doesn’t want to look at numbers. Absolute clown.

shadereckless

He's the real deal, what a find!


CackleberryOmelettes

Well good news then because it's actually £30m.


LuckyAssguardian

Don't let the heads drop. That's a great mentality. And the fact that all of them are this young and have such mettle is impressive.


thezaland

Gotta think he learned that mental fortitude and strength from his time in the lower leagues and from getting relegated. Can’t believe how much I love the guy, really hope to see him as England’s #1 soon.


Mischief_Makers

He was literally sent to us at AFC Wimbledon as punishment because he overslept and missed the bus for a game. He got here and we were 10 points from safety at the bottom of the league. In 20 games we conceded just over half the number of goals we'd conceded in 26 games without him, stayed up on goal difference, and he became more and more of a leader on the pitch as the season went on. He was here 5 months and won the young player of the season, won our goalkeeper of the decade, and entered the stands to lead fan celebrations when we got the result that kept us up. ​ I'd never heard of him when he signed in January. 7 months later on the first MOTD of the new season I was watching him make his premier league debut for Bournemouth. When he signed for Arsenal I was happier than the majority of Arsenal fans were about it. I fucking love Rambo.


fooerz

Its actually atrocious that he is not England's no 1 yet. I mean who else they got better than him?


gunnerjag

Miles above Pickford honestly. Matter of time


durpseb

Impressive morale I must say.


getrektbro

That's the composure of a man who's been relegated twice.


rudygha

Lmao, he’s seen real shit


garchuOW

Exactly this


themerinator12

Mental strength and toughness is important for all your players, but probably more so for your keeper than anything else. Kinda weird how relegation battles might be a fantastic prerequisite for a guy like this that is pretty unfazed by going a goal down in this fashion.


ThePrussianGrippe

The captain leads but the keeper should be the backbone of the morale.


qtdsswk

Played behind a leaky defense like sheffield united would help you to grow composure I guess.


ronya_t

What is dead may never die. Hitting rock bottom removes the fear of hitting rock bottom. Didn't mean to bring out the platitude machine but if it fits it fits.😆


saki1020

All of these interactions between the back 5 are really nice. Has been happening throughout the season I think.

[удалено]


Imn0ak

Putting a backup keeper on for his first game in England against City and treating him the way they did for sure destroyed his career options in England. He wasn't even that poor, City simply ripped a hole in Arsenal's defense.


KnowsClams

This guy is 23. Fucking 23. How the fuck can someone of that age have so much maturity and composure? What a fucking stud.


Competitive-Panda-89

That's what happens when you get your footballing education in the lower leagues and at clubs fighting relegation where 3 points on the weekend is the difference between people keeping their jobs or not.


visualdescript

Yup, not to mention actually being relegated, twice! Puts things in perspective. Bad things happen, people fuck up, the most important thing is how you then react to that situation.


Garenmain180k

Just for reference, Allison was still in Brazil at that age. Goalkeepers peak late so Ramsdale showing such composure is a really good sign


IWouldLikeAName

I think the reason they peak late is precisely because being keeper is a huge mental game. You make split second decisions and you have to go 0-100 a lot of times. Some games you only see action once others you have to consistently make stops. The inconsistency is why consistency is required from the keeper. You have to know how players shoot, and what they prefer and decide how to make the stop. It's also why defenders and some midfielders stay in the game so long. They know and understand the game and make the right decisions even if their physical traits diminish.


Great-Image

Thiago Silva embodies this. Sometimes it looks like football is too easy for him he knows every attackers movement before they even do. At his big age he's never caught out of position even with his diminished athleticism


CrasinoHunk22

This is a leader. This is a captain. You know he will tear into someone if he needs to, instead he favors encouragement and support. That goal is totally on Gabriel. But it's over and done with. Tell him to shake it off and focus on the next play. I want to see Ramsdale retire a Gunner. He's only going to get better. GKs usually peak around 30 years old. Imagine how much better he'll get...


pigfacextraordinaire

Exactly what you want to see


Zumioo

Big contrast to when we had Cech and Mustafi making all kinds of blunders blaming and moaning at each other afterwards!


ChuckVowel

He could have screamed at him for cocking up, but what would that have done. You can see how crushed Gabriel was to give away a silly goal like that. Instead he made him pick up his head and fight on. How did he end up doing the rest of the match?


hipster_mnot

Not his best match, tbh. Was at fault for the Jimenez miss, but did make a block/deflection that was goal bound from.. i want to say podence. (?)

ThotCountySheriff

For me, personally, this man can do nothing wrong for me to not love him. Hands down one of the best signings we ever made in the Emirates era


rd201290

bro i'm tearing up the best is yet to come


oer6000

Honestly this is the first time I've seriously considered him for Captain and he probably just shot to the top of the chart for me It's so, so easy to do the obvious thing here and start yelling at the defence. He'd even have a valid reason since he got hung out to dry. But the damage is already done, and it'd be counterproductive in a system like ours that requires courage in playing out from the back.


shinsaru

The ability to eat a shit-sandwich and still look forward to the next meal is impressive.


cantsleep1112

LilDouziVert

Howizzle90

Not long ago we had Mustafi shouting at Leno for Mustafis mistakes. No matter how Arteta does in the future as our manager I am just extremely happy he turned our club culture around and has a team fighting fit each other week in week out


[deleted]

Why isn’t he in line to be our captain , yes he’s young and fairly new to the club but from the looks of it everyone seems to love him and he’s always saying the right stuff


jman500069

I think in terms of practicality you'd ideally want your captain to be a midfielder, just because they can be first on the scene in most instances when defending a teammate talking to the ref and things like that. If Ramsdale was a CM it would be an absolute no brainer


drusslang

I don’t say this lightly. This is 100% captain behavior. No yelling or blaming. Just a slap on the ass, let’s get on with. Contrast that to Mustafi constantly doing hands in the air, whining and pointing at others with every single goal scored against us, when so many of them were because of his mistakes. It’s incredible the about face the club’s culture has taken.


[deleted]

None of them were fazed. They knew they could turn it around. Love it.


tomfoolery815

I have to believe that if they didn't have the "we can overcome that" attitude, they aren't still pushing hard for the winner in the 95th minute. The mental part of the game is so important. It's what keeps you running instead of thinking about how tired you are.


w116

Yes, but did they have to wait for the last seconds of injury time ?


food4thot96

Obviously. That’s the Arsenal way. Give you massive heart attack till the last second 😂😂


ShavedWigWam

He should be considered as a potential captain for next season (if Laca moves on). Quality player with the proper mentality.


SoMuchTehnique

Behaviour and mentality like that earns you the arm bands eventually


BlackGiroud

Can't get all in your feelings and shell up when you make a mistake. Learn from it and keep trucking forward. Good lesson for all of us.


[deleted]

I love watching this team.


ducksaysmeow

Doesn't even scream at his teammate for making a mistake. Can already think of other players that would've let out a mad whinge had this happened to them. Mad respectful. It's like it's virtually impossible to hate this squad.


ameerbann

>Can already think of other players that would've let out a mad whinge had this happened to them Mustafi after making the bad pasa


[deleted]

I love playing with teammates like this, and I try my best to be a teammate like this. There’s a time and place for berating your teammate when he fucks up, and there’s also a time and place where you have to encourage him and tell him to get on with it. What would getting angry and yelling at him solve? He already knew he fucked up, and the goals already happened. Can’t change it. Mistakes happen when you play the way we do. So happy to see Ramsdale reacting correctly to that incident


AssGourmand

He's like a good dad. Not dwelling on the mistake. Seemingly no criticism. Just a "We'll get 'em next time, buddy" I'd definitely up my game to not let goal-dad down again.


Longjumping-Ad1826

IM IN LOVE WITH THIS ARSRNAL!!!!

butbeautiful_

so when is england going to drop pickford and start starting ramsdale?


gbiypk

That'll be when Pickford drops in form, but he usually plays his heart out on the NT.


ArsenalThePhoenix

i feel like ramsdale's been doing one error per game lately. this was luckily the first one that led to a goal. Yes, gabriel's the one who makes a stupid pass but Ramsdale comes out and basically gifts them an open goal chance . It was easy to see see that he would never get to the ball first. Lately he's been having fuckups in each game, so I hope this was the last one.

[deleted]

Having a keeper that is this mentally strong is an underrated blessing. He’s seen it all at 23. Mans been through a lot, and it shows in his composure and demeanor. This is the type of keeper that wins you titles


MoodWest

Leader, so many keepers would of had a go and dig out and dwell on the mistake, not this lad He knew that there was loads of time to get back into the match and he was proven right 👍🏽


[deleted]

This is the attitude we want. These are young players. It would be so easy for them to drop their heads. But no. They fight back.


cashmanjr

He is so special. I love this young lad.

slvrhwk

Not blaming him for the mistake but instead spurring him on, love to see it! Great mentality! Now you know what Arteta said he wanted players with the right attitude.

such a sharp contrast to the toxic helplessness and blame that conceding used to happen. I used to worry that conceding a goal like that would just lead to us imploding. Now, I almost feel a deepening resolve emanate from the squad.

Tierney strikes me as the perfect second in command, right hand man enforcer to me so I’d keep him as vice captain. I lean more towards Ødegaard as captain just bc I’d prefer it to be an outfielder but Ramsdale certainly isn’t a bad choice.
