Injury has been a concern for Thomas Partey.
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta says they’re trying to get to the heart of Thomas Partey’s injury problems.
Partey continues to struggle to get back on the pitch.
Arteta said, “We have tried to manage him. A lot has happened since he joined and we are trying to find the best possible way to find the reason why that happens, but unfortunately, the body and mind are two different groups so sometimes to understand that you can’t put your finger on a single thing to try to prevent something happening.
“The attitude of the player is there and he’s really disappointed to be out again as you can imagine, and the team needs him when he’s back.”
On missing a midfield signing, he added: “We did business pretty early, but unfortunately in the past 72 hours Thomas [Partey] got injured in the same place as last time, and then Mo [Elneny] has a long-term injury. Then we had to react in the market and we tried, but at the end of the day we have to bring in the player that we feel is right for the team and for the club and we didn’t manage to do that.
Arsenal will face Man United at Old Trafford in their next game. They are unbeaten after first five games and take the top spot.
