Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has praised Thomas Partey for his commanding performance in the team’s emphatic 5-1 victory over Sporting CP on Tuesday.
The Ghana midfielder played a pivotal role as the Gunners dominated the match at the Estádio José Alvalade, showcasing his skill and control in the heart of midfield.
Reflecting on the win, Arteta was full of praise for the 30-year-old, emphasizing his consistency and ability to dictate the flow of the game.
“I think it’s one of the best performances I’ve seen from him, especially the way he’s dominated the game,” he said.
“This year he’s been so consistent as well because he always has a role. That’s a big thing; he’s a massive player for us,” he added.
Partey has featured 18 times for Arsenal across all competitions this season, with two goals to his credit, proving to be a vital cog in Arteta’s system.
As Arsenal shifts their focus to their Premier League clash against West Ham United at the London Olympic Stadium on Saturday, Partey will aim to maintain his exceptional form and contribute to another strong team performance.
