What Rodgers did after Ramsdale wonder save in Arsenal vs Leicester
Arsenal continued their impressive Premier League form with a comfortable 2-0 win over Leicester City on Sunday.
The Gunners have now won their last five league games as they returned to fourth place in the table.
Thomas Partey's header gave Mikel Arteta's side an early lead, before a contentious penalty decision following Caglar Soyuncu's handball gave Alexander Lacazette the chance to make it 2-0 from the spot.
Leicester didn't offer much of a threat going forward, but the tie wouldn't have been as easy if Ramsdale didn't make an excellent save from Harvey Barnes' headed attempt late on in the first-half.

Rodgers on Arteta
Rodgers has heaped praise on Arsenal manager Arteta for the job he has done this season.
“Mikel (Arteta) has done an excellent job,” Rodgers said ahead of Sunday's match between the two sides.
“This year they haven’t been in Europe that has helped them settle and they’ve used the coaching time really well.
“They have some young players. They’ve used that time well.
“If they can keep their players fit and available they should be in a really strong position to finish where they want to.”

Ruiz boost
Arsenal have been linked with a move for Napoli midfielder Fabian Ruiz in recent times and Italian outlet Corriere dello Sport have now reported that Newcastle United offered just under €50million (£41.9million) for the Spaniard, who doesn't want to move to Eddie Howe's side.
It is claimed that he wants to return to one of the top clubs in Spain but would consider a move to the Gunners if he was to head to the Premier League.
Ruiz's deal with the Serie A side is set to expire in the summer of 2023 and he has previously admitted that interest from the likes of Barcelona and Real Madrid is flattering.
