**Guardiola Praises Arsenal Player After Stellar Performance Against Leicester City**

Pep Guardiola has lauded a specific Arsenal player, stating, “Arsenal has become significantly more dangerous since his arrival. Personally, I believe he deserves a better club, which is why I’m striving to sign him… We have tabled £120 million for him ahead of the January transfer window.”

Arsenal has made a strong start in the 2024-25 Premier League season, with four wins and two draws in their first six matches, placing them just one point behind league leaders Liverpool despite a tough schedule.

In their recent match, Arsenal clinched a thrilling 4-2 victory over Leicester City. After a 2-2 tie at the end of regular time, an own goal and a strike from Kai Havertz ensured all three points for the Gunners.

Among the standout players this season is goalkeeper David Raya, whose key contributions have significantly bolstered Arsenal’s performance. Former Premier League player Kevin Nolan has commended Raya for his exceptional play, suggesting he ranks among the league’s best goalkeepers.

Raya has been instrumental for Arsenal, notably saving a penalty during their 2-2 draw against Atalanta in their first UEFA Champions League match. Nolan expressed admiration for Raya’s development since his summer 2023 transfer from Brentford, calling him a “complete” player.

“When Arsenal signed David Raya, there were questions about the need for him given Ramsdale’s strong prior season,” Nolan remarked on BBC Sport. “However, Raya has elevated the team, bringing them closer to Manchester City’s level. He now showcases himself as a complete goalkeeper, making great saves and excelling with ball distribution.”

Nolan emphasized that Raya’s performances have placed him among the Premier League’s elite goalkeepers, alongside Alisson and Ederson. “Raya’s presence in goal has taken Arsenal to a new level,” he added.

Raya’s consistent displays have been pivotal to Arsenal’s impressive early season form, and he has emerged as a crucial player for Mikel Arteta’s squad, enhancing the team’s quality with his commanding presence and skillful play.
