If we as a club allow Partey to go on his International duties, we are limpdicks

I donāt think heāll go but even if he does friendlies are played at such pedestrian pace Iām not concerned
Partey muscle issues are likely linked to the intensity of the PL more than anything else

I donāt mind him going, just so long as his fitness is managed properly. Playing one half in each game should get him sharp for Arsenal when the international break is finished.
If there is any doubt about his fitness at all then he should obviously stay at home.

When heās fully fit yes I think so too but if heās 80-90% fit we donāt want him risking that gap for ghanian friendlies ffs, even if they arenāt played at a high tempo.
Risk it for us against Spurs on 1st Oct instead.

Itās bad enough the World Cup is being held during the PL season but I thought at least we wouldnāt have to put up with meaningless friendlies.
As if these games are going to make the slightest difference to the performances in the actual tournament.

Def wouldnāt want him going even if itās a friendly. All it takes is one wrong cut and heās out for Spurs and probably through the rest of our pre-WC matches.
If he is not fit for the club, he cant be fit for country NO?

If your training, your replicating football situations.
Can get as injured just as easy in training. If heās at a required match fit level he can negotiate playing time for Ghana.

Except the Ghana Football Federation donāt give a shit if heās overplayed or not ready to come back to Arsenal. Theyāre working on a total different timeline than we are. Sure they probably donāt want him to break his leg and be out for the WC but they donāt care at all if they send him back after playing 180 minutes after passing a late fitness test.
I think itās in the best interest of Ghana federation to make sure heās match fit and ready for the World Cup. I doubt theyāll put him in any risky situations

They havenāt done anything wrong here. They have just requested his inclusion for a few weeks time.
People need to get the toys back in the pram. The club will deal with it and make a decision. We wonāt send him if heās injured. It might actually benefit us depending on where heās at game time wise.

Boring, now I have to pick my dummy up when I was having fun throwing it ffs.
Kids gotta learn though. Otherwise will be picking up after them for years.
What a boss in that midfield. It was 3v2 in there, and they didnāt get a sniff all match.

Like fucking clockwork. This fucking guy.
He doesnāt chose to be injured lol
Iām not blaming him, just more lamenting the situation. It was totally predictable heād get hurt going on international duty though.
We really need to get Danilo in January, not just for this season but going forward. Parteyās availability isnāt going to get better as he gets older.
