I do hate his willingness to shoot from range. It’s fine if you’re somewhat prolific, but I don’t think that’s ever been his game.

I thought Arteta missed a trick in the last 20 minutes. He and Laca looked the most knackered, and I was surprised that it took so long to make the Laca sub and that Partey who’s still not at 100% fitness was left on. Having said that, Partey needs to work through his physical tiredness, strengthen his mental state and not make silly mistakes when he’s knackered. It’s the next frontier for improvement, together with his shooting.

He's a classy player that is going through a period of settling into a new envrionment and at the same time struggling with injuries. He'll be balling for us by the time the next season starts.

While clearly not at 100% Partey has earned the respect of pundits, ex pros and majority of the Arsenal fanbase based on his performances so far.
There's nothing deeper to it than that. You can frame your opinion as some kind of insightful Martyr burning on the cross, but nobody’s buying it.

Nobody has said he cannot be criticized but people are saying he was extremely poor which is just...well.... extreme. As for him shooting from distance, I'm not going to kill him for it. Just need him to start keeping them down.

Need another week without issues and hopefully he can sit out the internationals. If he's available for the rest of the season, we have a decent shot at top 6 and the EL. Doubt he's operating anywhere near 100%.

He needs a proper pre-season. We'll see the best of him in August and onwards.

Great posting. Your postings are like when I saw Rivendell for the first time! Beautiful!

Mixed bag performance for me, wasn't as good as some want to make out and not as poor as others say.
Largely I thought he was good but there were a number of moments of sloppiness ( bordering on carelessness) from him throughout the match. It wasn't just the last 10 minutes by any means. Xhaka out performed him overall and it's not often that happens.
I don't believe he's 100% up to speed yet so hopefully we nurse him through the rest of the season and get him a good preseason so we can see him on absolute top form next season, as he's an exceptional player in full flow.

There were moments Yesterday, he made me scream obscenities at the telly. Last 10 minutes he was so static. Clearly, he has some fitness issues and either he needs to be managed a bit better and/or his fitness needs to improve. You can't make those kind of mistakes in a game like that, and we were lucky one of those passes did not result in a goal for them. Things would have looked a lot different for him today. Lucky guy. He is a decent player, a better DM then we had for a long time, but he becomes half a player he is once he is tired.

He's scored some screamers for Atletico. If nothing else is on, I see no issue with it. All you really need to do is threaten with one and it will open up some space for others to run into.

I know they’re top in la liga but anyone watching the Chelsea Atlético game? They look painfully slow and meek in midfield without Thomas I have to say.

There’s been some cracking player title threads recently. This one falls short.
I want partey every game. Love his skill set, daring and composure. Not seen his best in red yet.

The long-range prowess of Thomas Partey should make us all very excited - Planet Football
In a transfer that has sparked Partey times amongst Arsenal supporters, midfielder Thomas Partey has joined the club from Atletico Madrid. Expectations are high that the Ghanaian can provide bite and intelligence into Arsenal's midfield, but Partey has also demonstrated prowess with long-range...
