Aaron Ramsdale says he's in the Arsenal XI to stay.
The 23-year-old summer signing made only his second appearance for Arsenal since his move and his first in the Premier League as the Gunners earned a 1-0 victory at the Emirates.
His inclusion in the starting XI came as a slight surprise, given Bernd Leno appeared to still be first choice for Mikel Arteta when Ramsdale was signed.
"I signed to come into the team whenever that might have been," Ramsdale told Sky Sports after the match. "I've got to carry on working on the training pitch and keep the competition with Bernd [Leno] and hopefully I can stay in the team and keep helping out."
He continued: "It was a great afternoon not just for me but for the team and the fans. It was a tough start but we showed great character and great resilience. I loved every minute of it.
"The fans were amazing and never stopped singing and it showed. It's been a great day all-round.
"We knew that every game is difficult and we knew that we needed to win.
"We've played two promoted teams and two of the best teams in the league and we wanted more points but we haven't, but hopefully there are many more days like today."
