Additionally, Raya also said something similar in an interview with the Athletic:
“The relationship? It’s very good,” adds Raya. “At the end of the day, we are mates, which is the important thing. We have a very healthy relationship. There are no problems.
We push each other every day in training: when he’s a little bit down, I push him, and when I’m a little bit down (he does the same). We train three goalkeepers, four at the most, for hours a week, and you need that kind of relationship because otherwise, the training is not going to go well.”
Guardian making up shit headlines for clicks, nothing to see here.
It’s taken out of context though. Ramsdale was speaking in a way that seems more hypothetical than a provocative “I don’t like this get me out of here now” sense.
Agree to disagree. That hypothetical clause in the passage is about Raya being down:
And for whatever reason, there might be a day where he’s down and even though I’m suffering and hurting for not playing, I have to stand up and be able to push him.
I read that as the same as saying
even though I’m suffering and hurting for not playing, there might be a day where he’s down for whatever reason and I have to stand up and be able to push him.
So, I don’t think the headline really warps the passage significantly.
a provocative “I don’t like this get me out of here now” sense.
I don’t think the headline implies that.
In any case, it’s certainly much too harsh to say they’re “making shit up”
If you compare the headline to what is being said, it is making up shit. Yes, the exact words exist but they are divorced from the wider context of the situation.
This is pretty standard media clickbait; the aim is to get you to talk about it. Also note the reaction when it’s Ramsdale vs. Raya - the latter literally said he’d like to play in La Liga sometime, and there’s not nearly as much of an uproar.
Agree to disagree. I don’t think the headline drastically changes the sentiment of that sentence. Ramsdale is hurting, which is natural and not a big deal.

What do you mean? He literally said the stuff in the headline. They get along well, but he’s still suffering.

You’re reading too literally into this IMO.

I’m not sure why bother responding then if that’s all you wanted to say. But fair enough.
I just thought it was unfair to say they were making up shit.
