Richard Keys insists Mikel Arteta to blame after Aaron Ramsdale kicked by Tottenham fan

Richard Keys has renewed his attacks on Mikel Arteta by bizarrely blaming the Arsenal boss for the incident that saw Aaron Ramsdale kicked by a Tottenham fan at the end of Sunday's North London derby.

Ramsdale had been picking up his water bottle after the final whistle had blown when the supporter climbed onto the advertising hoardings and kicked the Arsenal keeper in the back. The fan quickly climbed back into the stands before any stewards could detain him as players from both teams rushed over.

Ramsdale was led away by a member of Arsenal's security staff, before Arteta also pushed him towards their team's jubilant fans. Arteta then dragged Granit Xhaka away from the incident as he convinced his players to celebrate in front of Gunners supporters in the away end.
