This horseshit from the back penalty camera angle deprived us of viewing that second save it its fully evolved form.
Does Raya get a 10/10 for his performance?
Iād say so.
If a clean sheet plus a double penalty save doesnāt get you a 10 idk what could!
Iām glad I was always team Raya over Ramsdale
Raya has proven quite emphatically that Arteta / Cana made the right choice here.
His command of the area and ability to claim crosses is the best in the league. I dont watch enough continental football these days to say heās the best in Europe but heās gotta be right up there.
Heās got outstanding anticipation, decision making and confidence to catch the ball in congested areas. He releases pressure on the whole team when he does that. Against City and tough away grounds, that attribute is utterly invaluable.
His ability on the ball to play it short or long is also perfect for our system.
And now heās making absolutely decisive, world class saves.
Heās performing at an unbelievable level right now. Heās so well rounded. The only keeper in the world Iād swap him for is Becker just because he makes those game changing saves on such a regular basis that heād probably be the only guy who saves us more points than Raya.
Unbelievable save but what the fuck was the Atalanta player doing with that casual finish.
Gave Raya the chance and he gobbled it the fuck up, hope he had nightmares about it last night.
He did an Ollie Watkins.
Iām inclined to give Raya the credit - heās done this sort of save twice in the space of a few games.
Itās actually insane how quickly he gets up after the penalty save. Superhuman speed.
Heās the best goalkeeper we had in my time as an Arsenal fan.
Incredible goalkeeper
Best goalkeeper in about 15 years, maybe more. Heās immense. I didnāt watch the 2nd half, but from what I read in the matchday thread, he was sensational.
Legendary performance today. So damn good
Player of the season, so far for me
Love him this season
10/10
Only a slight upgrade on Ramsdale imo. Waste of a transfer
Isnāt a slight upgrade an upgrade?
We got someone that could save us points, win us games.
A little bit downgrade of Raya would make us emptied hand today at Etihad.
A little bit downgrade of Raya, Atlanta could have defeated us.
An upgrade is an upgrade.
Bavin is being facetious. Thatās the joke.
Ok
Absolute monster game, nearly dragged us to a win against all odds.
Yesterday he was greater than (Gabriel) Jesus.
