Aaron Ramsdale doesn’t hide. He doesn’t give in either. The goalkeeper arrived at Arsenal in the summer to a warm welcome from those who believed in his talent but also a certain amount of scepticism from those who didn’t know him or who looked only at his record of successive relegations with Bournemouth and Sheffield United.
Aaron was unmoved, though – he was determined to prove himself to himself and to those who know him best. It’s fair to say he’s doing a great job of that so far, and his determination echoes the mood among the whole squad.
