Yeah, but similarly to Elneny he isn't at all good at actually winning the ball. Luckily he's good at progressing play, so we're not missing both of Partey's biggest strengths. I'm not sure what it is exactly about Sambi that makes people think he has a future at 6 instead of 8 to be honest (not necessarily referring to people on here, just seen it online).
Luckily he has a great defence behind him, so the only things I'm worried about are a corrupt refereeing performance or that we inexplicably play far worse than our normal level, which has happened many times at OT. Really don't want to feed the narrative that we're only looking good because we've faced easy opposition, and losing tomorrow would definitely do that.
