white would be poor in that role. he's a solid passer, but doesn't have the tools to handle being pressed as single pivot

Thing about Partey for me, and I know this has been discussed at length and led to some heat on here, but he was credibly accused of rape over the summer and a lot of material came out showing he's a waster and a rotten character. Sadly he's also a good footballer but he's someone Arsenal needs to find a way to cut ties with in my opinion, as it should with any player in such a scenario. I appreciate that it's too late for Arsenal not to seem as cynical as it does, especially given the lack of attention to any sort of midfielder search in summer, and also understand there might be legal issues with consequences to Partey in the situation, but ...

credible to you.
Yes. Funny how when I post it's my views that get posted.
I think most of us wants to get rid of him because of that, but speaking only for myself I was discussing purely from a sporting point of view since some seem to want to replace him even disregarding what a horrible human being he is.
I don't want to go on about it, just seems off to me never mentioning it as well. It's not about taking anyone here to task for holding the various different views about it we've already discussed.
Fucks sake, should not have gone to play in some fucking friendlies man. The player has to look after himself as well.
Buy someone in januray, sell him next summer. No point, cannot be counted on.
Fucks sake send him back to Arsenal.

Sounds like he looked after himself and pulled himself out of a game he didn’t have to play. What’s the problem?
The problem is Partey's evidently carrying an injury or two and there's a decent chance on Tuesday he'll provoke some deeper issue affecting his availability for Spurs.
Edit: yes, I'm being ridiculous since it's obvious.
Tired of him.
Good that he's returning at least.
Tomiyasu, Tierney, Partey.
Can't be having three first teamers as injury-prone as them.
Unlike last season, this year we really have to reach the top four regardless of these guys getting injured.
Partey needs to be replaced for not other reason than his age and fitness issues. There’s no title challenge happening with him barring a freak injury free season.

Poor wording don't you think.
Yeah clumsy wording, basically trying to say he would need to be replaced for footballing issues alone before you even get to the nasty stuff off the pitch.
Absolutely. Although he has games where he plays like peak Vieira, his passing is quite inconsistent and there are better/fitter players out there.
