Arteta should have backed 1 keeper and gone on from there. He's created this scenario where every keeper mistake will be over analysed by the media and creates uncertainty and extra pressure on the keepers.
If he stays with Raya every mistake will continue to be magnified. If he starts playing Ramsdale he'll come under the same pressure.
The only thing he can do is release a statement saying "I had mentioned alternating keepers, but I feel Raya has shown enough to be named number 1 keeper. Mistakes can happens we need to back him etc."
the exact same thing happened at United with De Gea and Henderson.
