Thomas Partey: No Doubting Thomas

Football intelligence, positioning, reading of the game, robustness, short passing, long passing, finishing, heading. Usain Bolt would have been the best player in the world in your logic.
Yes in the PL; surprised he didnt get a contract.

Partey has been playing well even when AM was hyper critical of him.

Merino showed some signs of why he was brought in. He's not fully up to speed yet for sure but winning a duel deep near the byline I believe was a sign of duel winning Arteta had in mind. Hopefully, this pans out to setting up chances for Martinelli if he's going to cut inside or maybe Rice or Trossard depending who's near him. Fans are way too impatient and we've had a lot of inconsistencies to structure due to cards and injuries.

He has been player of the season so far for us. Only Raya has a shout, but he’s a keeper

If he can play 30 games this season I can see the club offering him a new deal.

With Jorginho definitely going, it’s going to be a big ask for the club to bringing in two replacements.

I think it would be a bad idea personally.

We have quite a large dataset on Partey, and this so far has looked like his most fit season yet. I think that’s pretty suspect, I link it to the fact he’s in the last year of his contract.

What will happen once he knows (consciously but even sub consciously) that he is in the clear (even more so than before), on his last big contract?

IMO being mentally on the beach = more injuries. Even if he is not consciously looking at it that way. These are athletes playing in the top 0.001%.

For me it would have to be a severely reduced contract to cover the risk of above.

Yeah I agree, I just think it’s what the club/Arteta would be very tempted to do.

Given our lighter summer this year, we’re going to need 2/3 top players through the door next summer to add to what we already have, so giving us another player to replace may be just too much of a headache for them.

Partey don't deserve new contract because he didn't fulfill his potential with us he spent most his contract injured and of course this off field issue.

it'll be mistake even if he have good season he not young anymore

Never seen someone to blatantly up their game for a contract. Would not trust him to maintain form at all.
It’s more of necessity than anything. Arteta want a new keeper, 2 defenders and if any money is left an attacker. Doubt we can afford a midfielder
 

Arsenal Quotes

"Surely what will be their last attack.

A good ball by Dixon, finding Smith for Thomas, charging through the midfield... It's up for grabs now! Thomas! Right at the end!

What an unbelievable climax to the League season"

Brian Moore on the Thomas' winning goal at Anfield in 1989
