Arsenal goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale has spoken about how the team will approach the end of the season as they aim to win the Premier League title. The Gunners are currently sitting at the top of the table with 69 points after 28 games, but are closely followed by Manchester City who have 61 points and a game in hand.
Ramsdale acknowledged that last season, Arsenal had panicked in certain games towards the end of the campaign, which ultimately cost them a place in the top four. However, he believes that they have learned from their mistakes and are better equipped to deal with pressure situations this time around.

“At the end of last season, we panicked in certain games, I think we have learned from that. I think we know how to deal with that a lot better now.” Aaron Ramsdale told the Evening Standard.
“It doesn’t mean we’re not going to go into a game and panic again. But for the majority, we know what is needed and how to play and how to conduct ourselves.
“We are a young team we had a really tough one last year missing out on the top four and to Tottenham then it’s even more [tough], so we’re learning game by game. I think huge credit goes to the staff but also for our failure last year.”
The young goalkeeper also credited the coaching staff for their role in helping Arsenal improve this season. He said that they are learning game by game and that their failure last year has motivated them to do better this time around.
Despite being in a strong position at present, Ramsdale knows that there is still a long way to go before Arsenal can be crowned champions. He acknowledged that there may be moments where they feel under pressure and panic sets in, but he is confident that they have the ability to handle those situations.

Arsenal’s success this season has been built on a solid defensive foundation, with Ramsdale playing a key role between the posts. The 23-year-old joined Arsenal from Sheffield United last summer and has quickly established himself as one of the best goalkeepers in the league.
If Arsenal are to win their first Premier League title since 2004, they will need to maintain their current form and continue to show resilience when faced with tough challenges. With players like Ramsdale leading from the back, there is every reason for Gunners fans to be optimistic about what lies ahead.
