He is Ghanaian, Africans are tough/strong as f**k, any coincidence he is playing alongside Xhaka and getting injured all the time ?!!!


What does that have to do with anything, lots of players come to Arsenal and end up as sick notes. We have a similar issue with Tierney, he is good for 60-70pct of a season tops.

The problem with Partey is that we paid well over the odds for him, same as we've now done with Ben White. Neither of them are world class, but we're sinking a fortune into buying them, with little to no resale value.

Sounds about right. ;)

you missed the entire point :BangHead:

Last time I checked Tierney wasn't African/Ghanaian. Africans all over the league being strong and African, its what they do, they don't get sick or injured ... unless they travel back from Africa with Malaria. Africans are raggo.

Utter fiction - no idea what motivates you - there are numerous examples of top African players in all sports who get injured - your premise is entirely false and vaguely unpleasant.

You joking?

So not only do we not have a partner for him yet but we will have to start Elneny for probably half the season given Partey's injury record.

We have Sambi Lakonga.
I know he doesn't feature much on FiFA but he looks good.
