AARON RAMSDALE built on his reputation as a wind-up merchant by teasing Leeds fans after Arsenal’s 1-0 win yesterday.
The Gunners keeper was filmed fist-pumping and sarcastically applauding Whites supporters after the final whistle ended a dramatic afternoon of action at Elland Road.
Footage shared on Twitter shows the former Sheffield United star grinning while teasing supporters behind the goal as he walks back to collect his drink and towel.
The 24-year-old’s antics are predictably met with boos and some X-rated greetings from the vociferous Yorkshire crowd.
