The last thing any club needs is for their players to pick up an injury while on international duty, but Thomas Partey hasn’t exactly had his issues to seek when it comes to missing games lately.
He’s missed chunks of the last two seasons and also had a knock that’s kept him out of a few games in this campaign, but he appeared to be trending towards being fit after a call-up for Ghana.
He was even set to start their game this evening, but it’s since emerged that he’s picked up some kind of injury in the warm up and it’s been confirmed that he was replaced in the starting XI:
Thomas Partey has been replaced by Baba Idrissu. https://t.co/mEHOKxzHhy

The hope will be that he simply felt a twinge or something uncomfortable and this is a precautionary move more than anything else, but it will be tense wait for the Gunners to see what the damage is and if he’ll be forced to miss more time as a result.
We had a window to get a player in for him.
It’s obvious to anyone that Partey will be out this season just like the last 2.
It’s not cover we need for him It’s a replacement.
God bless your comment.
I find it hard to believe it’s really really Difficult for the powers that be @Arsenal to really understand that Partey isn’t that guy that would play 38games a season … worse case scenario, he gets injured more at a crucial time the team needs him most , moment that his presence would have made huge difference point wise if he plays but his abscence do come at a cost for the team , Imbalance and average result from lokonga or Elneny playing in his stead
Partey is an African guy , if his football age is 27, trust me , his bone is around 37 , this doesn’t mean he lies aboht his age but it’s African shit , foods we eat from childhood is different compared to White rase … No disrespect
Arsenal do not need a cover or back up for partey , we need a bonafide replacement instead
We do not need to gamble with money on some Manuel locateli who gets injured too playing 5-10games , we definitely don’t need Douglas Luis who isn’t better than Elneny and 19/21 year old Danilo from Brazil league isn’t partey replacement , the guy is more of granit xaka kind of player and would be ok for a xaka understudy for 2 yes in EPL
Arsenal need a Declan rice , Declan rice would do , English and premier league proven. + The guy can play 38games on his feet giving the same partey results
He is not our player, get him out of the club or sign replacement for him…
Elneny being injured at the same time hasn’t helped matters at all. He proved a capable cover during Partey’s absences last season. I guess that’s what even earned him a new contract at the club
Sure! because the team really depend or lack someone consistent in that position.
I don’t no what is wrong with this player Young black Male a young Ghanaian but not fit place thomas be fit we have a lout of games
I blame our coach for this”. We couldn’t plan for a qaulity life without him maybe by now we wouldn’t be thinking about him
It’s obvious to all of us now that he can’t stay fit this again and it’s quite unfortunate that we are going to mess up our season yet again just Because we didn’t want to spend more in that department.
