Aaron Ramsdale issues praise for Sheffield United player

Arsenal goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale has heaped praise on Sheffield United shot-stopper Wes Foderingham for his performances at Bramall Lane, taking to Twitter to congratulate his ex-teammate.

Foderingham was previously behind Ramsdale in the pecking order in South Yorkshire, but the latter’s departure to the Gunners in a £30m deal last August was a game-changer for the former.

He may not have won a place in the starting lineup straight away with former boss Slavisa Jokanovic deciding to bring in Robin Olsen on a loan agreement from AS Roma on deadline day – but with the Sweden international sustaining an injury in November – he was given the opportunity to shine.

This is an opportunity he took with both hands, performing well in Olsen’s absence and the latter wouldn’t make another appearance for the Blades after that, instead deciding to make the switch to Aston Villa in January.

Although Adam Davies came in as a replacement, the Welshman hasn’t been able to displace the ex-Rangers goalkeeper who has been a reliable figure between the sticks under Paul Heckingbottom, making very few errors.

One man that has been impressed with his performances is ex-Blade Ramsdale, who has seen his former teammate make an impressive 32 league appearances this term going into the play-off campaign.

Taking to Twitter in response to Foderingham winning the Players’ Player of the Year award, he posted: “Congratulations to another of my goalie friends! Wes Foderingham, been outstanding mate. Three big games to go.”
