Played like Patrick Vieira v Chelsea, ngl.
Will be back to playing like Fabio Vieira sooner rather than later though

That’s why I’d prefer Partey at 8 and Rice at 6.

Thought he was excellent today tbh, hopefully we've seen the last of Drunkle™ for this season because paired with Rice/Ødegaard we have one of the best midfields in Europe

I’m gonna zig while AM zags here and say we absolutely should not be looking for a Partey replacement.
Firstly I just need to be clear that I want him out of this club, but that has no bearing on the rest of the post.
Like @TheEliteMaster100_ and many others before him have said, Partey on the ball is a unicorn. Not even Rodri can play through the press like he can. He is a one off in this respect, regardless of some of his shortcomings when out of possession. Having him AND Rice at the base of our midfield with their ridiculously complementary skill sets is like a cheat code.
But….
The thing with Unicorns is that they don’t come around pretty often. Basing our entire tactical set up around a unicorn is a strategy fraught with key man risk. It is not easily repeatable. City have a similar problem with Rodri - just look at how they drop when he doesn’t play.
This is not just an issue when said player is unavailable but also when it’s time to get a replacement. Just look at the struggles AM is having in identifying possible replacements - even guys with️
like @2Smokeyy are out here on their knees suggesting names like plumbotka fs.
I can think of way way more elite b2b types than Partey types. Chain yourself to this ball at your own peril.
I tried to read this but you lost me at zig zags. You are to smart for me.

He's so good. The way he plays himself out of pressure and breaks the lines is elite. It's such a shame he can't be relied upon to stay fit.

Woeful today. As expected when opponents press him instead of giving our midfield all the space in the world as Chelsea did.

Performance underscored how important it is to buy a progressive CM this summer
I'd also keep him around another season if he's up for it

Who is right? 
His good moments are very good, but when he makes mistakes it puts us under heavy pressure.Who is right?
I would say overall he was a plus today, some very good passing on display.

What’s our average goals conceded this season when he’s on the pitch vs not?

Lapses of concentration aside I have liked what I have seen when it comes to Partey. This song and dance with his fitness and his personal issues not having clarity and stuff, it's just not worth it for me and I would like to see it end this summer.
This nonsense being spouted that he's bad or Jorginho would be better or whatever are both absolutely ridiculous though, it's clear Rice/Partey/Ødegaard is by far the best midfield.

One or two bad passages of play is not a poor performance. It's confirmation bias.

I'm by no means a fan of Partey either as a player (mainly fitness/rashness/form) or a person (potential yellow box stuff) but I thought he had an excellent game today, have to call it how I see it.

If its the Fabio Vieira who got the Jesus assist vs United (but this time at Old Toilet) I'll take it!
