On Saturday in the “Premier“ league match against “Brentford,“ two players in the ranks of “Arsenal“ had the chance, who are finding it harder to integrate into the main lineup this season: Aaron Ramsdale and Kai Havertz.

A. Ramsdale made several rough mistakes during the match, but ultimately maintained a “clean sheet.” Meanwhile, substitute K. Havertz scored a decisive goal after which the “Gunners“ rose to first place in the “Premier“ league.

After the match, “Arsenal“ coach Mikel Arteta had a very interesting reaction when asked about Aaron Ramsdale's performance. He immediately redirected the topic to the team's overall performance.

“I am pleased with how the whole team performed, with the ‘clean sheet’, I am pleased with everyone.”

Even when asked about the goalkeeper's nerviness, the Spaniard only spoke about the team's performance. However, he did comment on the situation when the team mates surrounded the English goalkeeper after securing 3 points.

“As a coach, I am happy to see such a result. You can see how players care for each other, encourage each other, show love, it can't be better,” said M. Arteta.

“Arsenal“ coach finally commented on Havertz's successful performance: “I don't know anyone who wouldn't be happy for him. He truly deserves it. He is an incredible football player. He is the right player for us, who won us the game.”
