I’m not massively convinced by Raya. He’s largely shielded by the best back four in the league. He has the same mistakes in him as Ramsdale when put under pressure.Originally Posted by Peter

He is, in large part, the REASON they're the best back four in the league. In possession, out of possession; he's peerless.
As for having mistakes in him, EVERY keeper has 'em. They're all weirdos basically, but he is one of the least weird; at least he can actually PLAY football

Most of the mistakes were early doors when he was settling in. He hasn't made many since.

He is probably the best in the league on crosses and that is a huge help at set pieces.
I do hope we stick with him next season. We don't want to spend 3 months bedding in a new one
Agreed. And the only incongruous (though perfectly understandable) constituent part of the whole matter was the nonsense of signing two first-choice goalies within such a short space of time. Otherwise, the boss has got everything spot on.

If Thomas Partey had been fit earlier in the season would have won the league.
You only say these things to hurt me.
