Arsenal fans give verdict on Champions League hopes<\/h3>\n

Arsenal hero David Seaman is confused by Mikel Arteta’s decision to bench Aaron Ramsdale. The goalkeeper has been cut from the starting XI since the international break, with David Raya enjoying an extended run in his place.<\/p>\n

The switch-up came out of the blue, with Raya selected to start against Everton earlier this month and keeping his place for subsequent matches with PSV Eindhoven and Tottenham.<\/p>\n

Ramsdale is a popular figure at the Emirates Stadium, but he now faces a fight to break back into the side. Arteta insists that goalkeepers can be rotated just like outfield players, even stating that he would be prepared to change things around mid-match.<\/p>\n

But Seaman feels that the Arsenal boss faces an almost impossible task to keep two starting-quality stoppers happy.<\/p>\n

“I always felt that a goalkeeper needs to be settled and know that he’s number one,” the former England star told Express Sport<\/em>. “I don’t know whether [Ramsdale] will be thinking of trying to get away, but as a goalkeeper you always want to play. That’s where the balancing act is going to come into play with Mikel.<\/p>\n

“He’s trying to keep two goalkeepers happy because now you’ve got two real top-quality options. What do you do? You can’t just leave one of them, not play him and expect him to be happy. [Not playing] is frustrating, that’s the main point. The only way to keep a goalkeeper happy is to play them. It’s difficult, I’m still trying to understand what he’s trying to do.”<\/p>\n

Arteta will hope that Raya’s arrival can propel the Gunners towards the Premier League title after going close last season. When it was put to Seaman that the motivation behind signing the 28-year-old could be to take Arsenal to another level, he responded: “If it is, I don’t quite get it because Aaron has been brilliant.<\/p>\n

“Everyone is shocked at what’s going on already, because you look at last season, he was voted the goalkeeper of the season by the players. Trust me, that is a mega award.<\/p>\n

“He’s come off the back of contending to win the Premier League and he’s started really well this season. Bringing in David Raya, my first views were that it would make Aaron a better goalkeeper because he would be on his toes more and push him. But I’m still puzzled as to what’s happened.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Arteta’s selection will once again be under the microscope when Arsenal travel to Brentford in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday night. Ramsdale may get an opportunity to earn precious first-team chances, with a demanding European campaign in store for the Gunners over the coming months.<\/p>\n

Raya made a terrific save to deny Brennan Johnson in the 2-2 draw with Tottenham on Sunday. Ramsdale was among those to show their appreciation as he applauded the Spaniard from the bench.<\/p>\n

Seaman spoke to Express Sport<\/em> in association with the British Heart Foundation, having taken part in their campaign to raise awareness for hidden heart disease ahead of World Heart Day on September 29.<\/p>\n

“Heart disease is one of the world\u2019s biggest killers and the worst thing is that you often don\u2019t know you have a problem until it\u2019s too late,” he said. “Over 200 people have given their time to support this campaign, with each empty seat representing a lost fan, a lost heart, an unfinished ending \u2013 it\u2019s been a very poignant moment to be part of.<\/p>\n

“For the football community and beyond, the British Heart Foundation\u2019s lifesaving research offers hope to those impacted by heart disease. By shining a spotlight on heart disease this September, we can bring hidden heart conditions into focus and fund research breakthroughs to prevent more families living with that gaping hole left by the loss of a loved one.”<\/p>\n

Ahead of World Heart Day this September, the British Heart Foundation and David Seaman are shining a spotlight on hidden heart conditions. To find out more or donate, visit spotlighton.bhf.org.uk<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
