Mikel Arteta has thanked Brendan Rodgers after the Leicester City manager described Aaron Ramsdale as England's best goalkeeper following their teams' Premier League clash on Sunday.
Ramsdale was in fine form once again as Arsenal ran out 2-0 winners, pulling off a spectacular save to deny Harvey Barnes from drawing Leicester level late in the first half. Having exclaimed "wow" and given the Gunners goalkeeper a round of applause on the touchline, Rodgers offered a compliment post-match, with Ramsdale's stock rapidly rising thanks to his stunning performances.
"For me he's the best English keeper at the moment. I think he's top," the Foxes boss stated. "His progression since he came to Arsenal, he's playing for a huge club, different expectation with how to play football, I think he's dealt with that really well. It looks like he's come into the club here, he's playing now with a calmness.
