Mikel Arteta wants to keep Arsenal’s winning streak going when the team takes on Newcastle United in the Premier League on Saturday.
Given that Aaron Ramsdale gave up three goals in the middle of the week, David Raya is the obvious choice to start in goal. While he didn’t play poorly, he also didn’t show enough to warrant a move to the Premier League, so the Spaniard will undoubtedly continue to be closely watched.
Naturally, Ben White, William Saliba, and Gabriel Magalhaes—the team’s regular starters—will all return to the defense. The Gunners’ defensive record is once again excellent; they have already kept four clean sheets this season—one at home against Manchester City and one on the road.
