Matt Turner is the club’s second choice for goalkeeper.
Arsenal appeared in the Europa League round-of 16 tie against Sporting Lisbon and the match ended in a 2-2 draw. Martin Keown was unhappy with this performance and he has blasted Matt Turner for his shaky performance.
Matt Turner is the club’s second choice and mans the post for their European and cup matches, so Mikel Arteta gave him another chance in the knockout game.
The goalkeeper hesitated at a corner and it led to Sporting’s first goal. Keown blasted him as quoted by the Daily Mail:
‘Really, he’s killed everyone, because he’s started to come and then doesn’t. But Kiwior, too, he’s got to do a little bit more than that.
‘What I’ll be saying though if I’m playing regularly with this keeper is I’m going to have to go and head things. I can’t really trust him. There he has come and win it and be dominant and he didn’t do it.’
Mikel Arteta was also not happy with his defenders for conceding two easy goals in Europa League. Ramsdale remains Arsenal’s first choice and the Englishman should start every game.
