Arsenal U18 coach Wilshere insists Ramsdale the best England has

Arsenal U18 coach Jack Wilshere is happy seeing Aaron Ramsdale in England's World Cup squad.

Wilshere has tipped 'humble' Aaron Ramsdale to start at the 2022 World Cup as he lauded his rise to the top.

The former Gooner said of Ramsdale on talkSPORT: "I was at Bournemouth on loan, and we signed him in January.

“And this little skinny kid came in and he was the nicest boy, the most humble boy. He was so humble, wanted to learn, was really respectful and obviously he had some ability as well.

“His ability to save these unbelievable saves he was pulling off, so when you see that in a goalie you're thinking, 'yeah he's got something'.

“But he must have had the ability to play with his feet like he does, because you don't just learn that.

In the Arsenal team, he's so important to them because he starts the attack, he creates everything."
