‘Aaron Ramsdale started against West Ham but I don’t think Mikel Arteta will pick him against Newcastle, he’ll stick with David Raya,’ Parlour told .
‘Aaron will be very frustrated. He’s been really good since he’s been at the club, he’s a big personality in the dressing room, which is important.
‘I don’t like the situation but I’m not Mikel Arteta. I don’t know what goes on in training or behind the scenes and that’s a big decision he’s had to make in sticking with Raya.

‘Despite his lack of game time, I’d still like to see Arsenal sign Ivan Toney in January,’ Parlour added. ‘He would be my pick. He works hard, he always wants the ball and holds the ball up well, he is always in the right positions and he scores goals.’
