Ramsdale left Arsenal in the summer transfer window for a report £25m to Premier League rivals. Southampton with the England international struggling to get into. Mikel Arteta’s side after the arrival of David Raya.
Chelsea have massively improved this season compar to the last two with. Enzo Maresca guiding them to second place in the Premier League table, four points behind leaders. Liverpool, who have one game in hand.
With Nicolas Jackson showing impressive form ยูฟ่าเบท this season. Easing pressure to sign a new centre-forward, it is the goalkeeping department. That many see as one of the Blues’ weaknesses.
Sanchez doesn’t always instill confidence and Arsenal legend. Wright thinks Chelsea need a new goalkeeper to make sure they can challenge Liverpool for the title.
The former Arsenal striker said on the “You look at Chelsea now and offensively, everything is in order.
“I thought Jadon Sancho was very good, obviously. Cole Palmer is doing great stuff, but defensively they just to tighten up everything.
I think now if they can get a top goalkeeper.
I thought Ramsdale would have perfect for them and that. ‘Thiago Silva’ experienc centre-half then I think Chelsea very much in this fight because for me they’ve got everything else.”
Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher agrees with Wright that the goalkeeper will. Have to be replaced long-term, while he’s also not sure about their two centre-backs.
“I still look at the goalkeeper [Robert Sanchez] and the two centre-backs. I can’t see a team winning the Premier League with that goalkeeper and without a standout centre-back.

“I think this Chelsea are short in those areas.”
