Man United legend Rio Ferdinand is not happy with Arsenal for the continued absence of Thomas Partey from Mikel Arteta’s side. The Ghana international is a vital player for the Gunners.
Partey played a big role in challenging Man City for the title last season. He was part of 33 matches for the Gunners and his club were runner-up in the Premier League.
Partey was a key player last season for Mikel Arteta last term as he played 33 times in the Premier League as they challenged Manchester City for the title.
Thomas Partey is now limited to only four appearances this season and injuries also played a role in it. His latest hamstring injury is expected to rule him out until the New Year.
Ferdinand speaks on his Vibe with FIVE YouTube channel: “Thomas Partey is irreplaceable by the way [according to Arsenal fans] but he ain’t been seen this season! Not even mentioned on the show.
“What’s happened to Thomas Partey?! Where is Thomas? Someone free Thomas Partey. Please, I need to see him again man.”
He also added, ”He was the best defensive midfielder in the world last season [according to Arsenal fans] and now he needs to go?!
“What do you mean he needs to go? Ah mate, seriously, I’ve had enough. He needs to go! You said at the beginning of the season, ‘Partey best defensive midfielder in the land, has to play there, and Rice will go on the left’.
“That’s what you said, you chucked your £100million player out on the left! Thomas, I want you to stay, bro. I respect you. I respect his game.”
