Aaron Ramsdale has revealed the reaction to Illan Meslier’s performance in Arsenal’s 4-1 win over Leeds United in December is something that ‘winds’ him up. Meslier made eight saves but could not prevent the Whites from being on the end of another heavy defeat at the hands of one of the Premier League’s ‘big six’.
The 22-year-old has had a much more difficult campaign for Leeds this time around than his debut Premier League campaign – with errors arriving more frequently. He has, however, been even more exposed than last season, making the most saves in the division with 143 – 12 more than second placed Kasper Schmeichel.
During that encounter at Elland Road, Leeds found themselves 3-0 down against the Gunners by half time, with Gabriel Martinelli scoring twice and Bukayo Saka adding another. Meslier had already made three saves inside the opening five minutes before Martinelli opened the scoring after 16 minutes.
