FA condemns 'unacceptable' attack on Ramsdale, silent on punishment for fan or Spurs

A statement from the Professional Footballers’ Association read: “”Violence towards players is completely unacceptable. These types of incidents are happening far too often.

“Players have a right to be safe in their place of work. When a player is attacked we expect the laws and regulations that are in place to protect them to be properly enforced.

“As the players’ union we treat this as a priority issue. We will be continuing to work with the authorities to demand that players and staff are better protected in their place of work.”

After Arsenal's 2-0 victory over Spurs, Ramsdale appeared to go around the net to grab his water bottle. But a supporter climbed on a billboard and attempted to land a kick on the 24-year-old’s back. Ramsdale, who was facing the other way, described it as an attempted “punch”.

An own goal from Hugo Lloris and a long-range effort from Martin Odegaard secured the three points for Arteta’s side, who have now moved eight points clear at the top of the Premier League.

Arsenal play Manchester United next on January 22.
