Newcastle United's Nick Pope was preferred over Aaron Ramsdale for England's final two games before the Qatar World Cup.

Arsenal supporters were all saying the same thing about Ramsdale after Pope's error. The Gunners stopper has been impressive for With an injury to Jordan Pickford keeping him out of the squad, many were expecting Ramsdale to deputise in his absence for these Nations League fixtures, but it was Newcastle United goalkeeper Nick Pope who got the nod.

It will be a safe place for goalkeepers. Maybe he could ask Santa for a new career as goalkeeping obviously isn’t for him”.
