We have PSV in like, 3 days. And this game is away. Raya hasn't played in months. I'd much rather play him in CL and see what he's capable of first.

I think this is the reason why Raya is starting here, as Ramsdale will start on Wednesday

I feel like Everton is harder than PSV, ngl. And again, Ramsdale is way better away. Don't like this choice.

It might be more to do with strengths vs. weaknesses. Does Raya deal better with set pieces, where Everton can be a threat? Maybe Arteta wants to use Raya to build from the back more consistently.

Either way I think we should expect more rotation in general everywhere. He's shown he will do it in the last, but the results were mixed because of the lack of quality depth in the squad. But that's not the case now -- we have freaking Gabriel Jesus on our bench.

Also could be the prestige of UCL vs PL. Idk though lol. Given they literally just tweeted a GK union post, I'm sure the club knows there's gonna be controversy and will probably address it post-game.

Ramsdale has been with us longer and deserves the first CL match back.
