Monstrous performance. Depending on where you are in the Emirates, it's not always obvious who's played well and who hasn't, but Partey was very clearly absolutely outstanding yesterday.
Clrnc he was fucking phenomenal in that tie.
Man is playing for his contract, lets see if we can string this along until the end of the season.
As much as I like him as a player he should not be getting a contract. We need to move on and need someone who can give us 50+ games a season

Agreed but football is fickle, if he continues playing like this we have no choice giving him a one year contract which is minimal risk from our side.
JazzG he’s just healthy. A big difference fitness makes
I will give him a new one year contract and focus all our transfer kitty for the attacker, be it a striker or a left winger. We need that special player up front.
Basically a Musiala, Wirtz, Kvaratsheklia, Gyokeres etc
If he's playing like this he won't settle for a 1 year contract to begin with. A 2 year contract elsewhere would see him out till he's 34 which would be much more appealing for his team.
1 year with a team option for a 2nd year.
He’s paid well here, doubt he gets similar wages elsewhere. I think a one year contract with an option (pay boost) could be smart for both sides.
If it worked for like 5 seasons with Dennis، it can work with any of our current lot.
Would be mad to give him a new contract for any amount of time. Firstly he's still due his season-derailing injury for the year (we've been here before folks) and secondly he'll be crocked again next year.
We need to offload his wages in summer and go big on the right and proper prime age midfielder. We'd be better off now if we'd gotten shot of Partey eighteen months ago.
Claudius Agreed, kind of why I still have some hope for Jesus. When a player has chronic injuries they play within themselves as I think they get anxious about re injuring themselves, once they break that mental block they usually get back to their best.
Just be glad he's fit and playing well now, make the big change in the summer and sign a proper play making DM to replace him.
He’s brill when fit. Love the disguise he uses in his play
He'll be very hard to replace when he is playing like he currently is. Dreading that a bit actually.
Segway definitely. MLS? 👀
That would be the dream! I think that is way too soon though.
Of course. He seems to have that drop-the-shoulder and disguise that TP5 has though 🤞🏼
has played more Premier League minutes this season than all of last season.
Imagine if we had him fit last season!
JazzG Honestly, if we had him for 10 or 12 more games last year, specifically between Sept and Dec, we probably would have won, but ahh oh well.
