“He deserves and he is good enough to be playing in the Premier League for a decent side.

“Have they got that now? I honestly don’t know.”

"I think it’s a big season for them.”
He added: "For me, Reiss Nelson has a massive season coming up.
“We saw Saka come off the other day and Reiss Nelson needs to step into that and deliver.
“He’s been around the squad and the manager for long enough now. He needs to produce the performances.
“Our bench is going to be very important. If Reiss goes another season where he’s just in the wings, I don’t understand what that’s going to do for him and his career.
“This is a massive season for him and I really pray he can kick in and do something.”

“My expectation is still for Ramsdale to leave Arsenal, in any case.”
Former Tottenham man Dimitar Berbatov has revealed he likes the idea of Ivan Toney joining the Gunners.
He told Futbin: “Toney to Arsenal? Why not?
"I think he made the most of his playing time at the Euros and gave everything and the best that he could with such a limited amount of playing time.
