The English international goalkeeper lost his place in the starting lineup after David Raya was signed on loan from Brentford in the summer. On Saturday, Ramsdale started for Arsenal for the first time in over two months in the Premier League. The custodian last featured in the club's 3-1 win over Manchester United on September 3.Ramsdale did have some nervy moments in the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/arsenal-player-ratings-brentford-havertz-ramsdale/blt534a66b59f1f7df1" target="_blank">Gunners' 1-0</a> win over the Bees and <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/aaron-ramsdale-gary-neville-appears-blame-mikel-arteta-nervy-goalkeeper-nearly-makes-mistake/blt68e87735fb8fc742#cs7ae792a34cb302c8" target="_blank">could have leaked a goal </a>had it not been for Declan Rice who cleared Bryan Mbeumo's shot from the goal line.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Speaking at the post-match press conference about Ramsdale's performance, the Gunners boss said, "This is football. I’m so happy with the team, the way the team performed with the clean sheet. We move on. So happy."

WHAT ARTETA SAID

While Raya has been the Spanish manager's preferred number one in the past few months, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/explained-why-aaron-ramsdale-start-arsenal-not-david-raya-against-brentford/bltd038884d5d090856#cs17cab3bc4327c918" target="_blank">he could not play against his former club</a> due to a Premier League rule that states, "during the period of the temporary transfer of his contract registration a player shall not play against the transferor (parent) club." The goalkeeper moved to the Gunners on an initial loan, with the deal including an option to buy for £27 million ($34m) in the future.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Ramsdale eventually made amends for his mistake by making some quality saves in the second half and managed to keep a clean sheet as Arsenal climbed to the top of the table with a crucial win. He will now hope to feature in the Gunners' lineup more often.
