Arsenal fans on social media lambasted goalkeeper David Raya after his sub-par performance in the Gunners' 2-1 defeat against Bournemouth in the Premier League on Saturday (May 3). Fans labelled the Spanish shot-stopper as the 'worst keeper ever' after he allowed the opposition to score a couple of easy goals.

Raya initially joined Arsenal from Brentford on a year-long loan deal in the summer of 2023. He won the EPL Golden Glove in his debut season in North London (16 clean sheets in 32 games), prompting the Gunners to sign him permanently for a reported €31.9 million in July 2024.

This season, he has conceded just 31 goals in 35 league encounters, keeping 12 clean sheets in the process. However, a slew of major errors in ball distribution and shot-stopping have left fans annoyed with his recent performances.

Against Bournemouth, Dean Huijsen surprisingly headed a throw-in past Raya to level proceedings in the 67th minute. Just eight minutes later, he parried Evanilson's deflection into the goal, giving the Cherries the lead.

Arsenal fans were left exasperated after watching the Spaniard's mistakes. @OmoJenniffer wrote:
