There has been disappointment at Arsenal that Partey dominated matches for two thirds of the past season, then regressed to his performance levels of the previous two campaigns. [@TimesSport, @garyjacob] #afc

I don't like his association with this club, but it would be very difficult to lose Xhaka, Partey, and potentially Jorginho in one summer

We aren't getting rid of our 3 midfield vets in one window. We have CL and the the league next season and we will need depth.

our 3 midfield vets

I will not stand for this Elneny erasure!

That's arguably the issue. If we're losing Xhaka and Partey and only bringing in two, our squad would still be a little shallow.

@sabret00the @Gingerrific i like the idea of keeping partey as a rotation player for rice; have him play 20-25 games (which is all he seems available for anyway)

@WorldcupCSR @sabret00the @Gingerrific his fragility is one reason why I'd just take whatever we can get for him. A backup who's never available is not a real backup.

@thatdosbox @sabret00the @Gingerrific but if he would accept the role and really just play 20-25 games he’d be a backup that didn’t cause the levels to drop significantly.

@WorldcupCSR @sabret00the @Gingerrific let's just say his fragility is *one* reason I'd be fine with getting rid of him 🤐

[–] WorldcupCSR@arsenalfc.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

@thatdosbox @sabret00the @Gingerrific on a separate topic, seeing an athletic article on Marcus Thuram; wonder why we aren’t in for him??

[–] thatdosbox@mstdn.ca 1 points 1 year ago

@WorldcupCSR @sabret00the @Gingerrific seems he's more suited to a counter attacking team, and less suited to patient build up play?

[–] WorldcupCSR@arsenalfc.social 1 points 1 year ago

@thatdosbox @sabret00the @Gingerrific i hear that

[–] Naryn@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

So it's not Riceido, it's Riceidogan!!

[–] sabret00the@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

Not gonna lie, I'm okay with this 👀

[–] Naryn@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Jorginho is happy to stay apparently.

[–] vizhal007@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

This is the good Jacobs fyi

[–] DeathWearsANecktie@lemmy.fmhy.ml 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

My conscience says just get him out. We don't need a person like him in our squad.

[–] Nico@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Excellent player I would be happy to get rid off for reasons other than football

[–] NorfolkingChance@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

That's a spicy meatball

[–] sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I think if we can bring Caicedo in then we can afford to sell one of Partey and Jorginho.

Ciaocedo

[–] goldgate@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Caicedo in.

[–] Naryn@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Fucking good. Get him the fuck out of our club.

[–] Mijn_Bergkamp@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Anything around £25m just take it and drop that on Elia if necessary

[–] DarkUFO@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Hope we get rid off. Not a nice guy.
