Class today even when we were down he was the only one that give the team bit of stability in midfield at 2nd half he was even better
Uncle Thomas not getting the praise he deserves today. Don’t worry. The most intelligent Arsenal fans know his worth.
He's improved since dropping deeper
I won't mind him shooting where there opportunities but he always go full powerThe extra time and calmness he has on the ball is incredibly, we saw that on Full display especially in the second half
Could do with him shooting less though
You have ppl here calling this maestro "F-artey" etc when he's clearly level above most EPL mids. This place is something else.
Me @Riou and the boys when we get mentionedUncle Thomas not getting the praise he deserves today. Don’t worry. The most intelligent Arsenal fans know his worth.
Poor defensively? If he is poor positionally defensively I hate to think what the other 2 areOn the ball good today (3xcpet for selfish and dreadful shots!) But off the ball still poor positionally and defensively.
He has been brilliant since the city game. Ran the show yesterday and was motm really.So refreshing to see him performing consistently now.

I've been saying this for like 2 years now but that's exactly what his role has been for at least 90% of the time here and in his last season at Atletico Madrid. B2b Partey is a myth, Arteta bought him to be a holding midfielder, his best position. Whether that's playing next to a DM in a 4231 or two inverted fullbacks in a 433 it's the same role just different formations on paper.We need to mould him into our own Busquets/Fernandinho. Don’t think he has the legs anymore for box2box. Needs to sit in that holding role, mop up and distribute the ball intelligently. Just needs to be a bit less careless in possession.
