Has to be Luton, Sheffield or maybe Bournemouth. Don't see him being much of an upgrade for anyone else.

Was it Chelsea?

[–] hamzanasir_gt@alien.top [B] 2 points 2 years ago

Arteta butchered his confidence and that recent interview where he talked about lack of focused wasn’t really a good PR job. Poor guy shat himself.

Maybe we offered Arsenal half a twix and some sticky old coins from the back of the glove box to get him back.

I mean, in this economy?

It was not the right Twix for sho, but that doesn't mean it was left.

Chelsea?

[–] thatguyad@alien.top [B] 2 points 2 years ago

Arsenal really fucked him over.

[–] LibranJamess@alien.top [B] 1 point 2 years ago (6 children)

Realistically he’s going for 50m in todays market.

Maybe half. Realistically less.

Not a chance you're selling England's 4th choice goalkeeper who doesn't want to be at the club anymore and has no future under the current manager for £50m. There's also no chance a club in the bottom half would pay that much for a goalkeeper.

He's not 4th choice in any reality unless he keeps warming the bench until the summer. He's 2nd choice now and would realistically still be there in January when we can sell

[–] FriendlyGhost08@alien.top [B] 2 points 2 years ago

If it was in the summer then probably. After Arteta's mismanagement of the situation his value dropped

parent

[–] IamNeverRelevant@alien.top [B] 2 points 2 years ago

No way. There's a lot of good keepers around and not a lot of big teams needing one. And Arsenal doesn't have a lot of leverage with him being a clear second choice. I don't think of any keeper that went for more than €30m in the past five years other than Onana.

[–] MoyesNTheHood@alien.top [B] 1 point 2 years ago

50m!? 😂

[–] DarthNihilus1@alien.top [B] 1 point 2 years ago

On paper you could try and argue he's worth that but we're more likely to get half of that.

His fallout hasn't exactly been graceful

parent

[–] Banzaikk@alien.top [B] 1 point 2 years ago (3 children)

Probably Sheffield United, it's his old club and frankly Foderingham is not a PL-level goalkeeper

Sheffied united arent midtable

parent

[–] fabulin@alien.top [B] 1 point 2 years ago

all respect to sheff utd, it wouldn't be a good career move for ramsdale. he had notable questions being asked but he still performed better than expected for arsenal over the past 2 years given that he was relegated 2 years in a row.

on his day theres an argument that he should be englands number 1. gone off the rails a bit this year but could get into most of the recent top 10 sides. if you take last seasons table for example and assuming he refinds form he could be an upgrade or at least as good as fulham, brentford, brighton and newcastles keepers

[–] shawlynot@alien.top [B] 1 point 2 years ago

Zero chance it’s us imo, he burnt a lot of bridges here with the way he left us last time and we’re also completely skint. Maybe could have asked about a loan but assume we’d know Arsenal would want some/all of his wages covering and no way we could afford them. Considering relegation looks nailed on doubt we’ll be pushing the boat out much in January either

Foderinghams not been too bad this season aswell. He’s made a few mistakes but he’s kept the score down in a fair few games and made a lot of good saves. A lot of that is probably just down to us allowing opposition teams about 4000 shots on target per game, though

parent

[–] unholyrevoltz@alien.top [B] 1 point 2 years ago

Wouldn’t be surprised if it was us, at least on a loan. Neto has been questionable this season, Radu not much better, would definitely be an improvement

[–] External-Piccolo-626@alien.top [B] 1 point 2 years ago (2 children)

Realistically where does he go? Arsenal will want at least 40 plus I’d say, no one in the top half needs a goalkeeper, doesn’t leave him with many options.

[–] jkeefy@alien.top [B] 1 point 2 years ago

I doubt we’d push for 40+ imo, we’d probably settle for anything above what we’re buying Raya for (£27m + loan fee)

Now that is interesting. When you think bottom-half EPL teams you think "shot stoppers only" and Ramsdale has (imo unfairly) a reputation for being a bad shot stopper. In fact, you'd probably characterise his strengths as sweeping and one on one defending.

I would assume it's Burnley.
