I’m 99.9% certain that Partey and Elneny will only miss one more league game unless the PL flex a game for us into the 5th February FA Cup weekend. That’s really unlikely though.
Last day of AFCON games is the 6th February and our next game after Burnley is the 10th so they could make that.
Yeah I don’t think they’ll lose sleep if they can’t sign a midfielder but if they can complete the Arthur deal I still think they’d do it.
