I said this when Arsenal were getting him. He needs to play with Partey. Jorgi/Partey Declan/Partey Merino/Partey will always work. Arteta needs to trust one of them yungins at RB and keep Partey in the midfield

The chemistry between him n partey is better than that of him n rice,I think I know why,,partey has played in Spain 🇪🇸 all his life,and merino is also from Spain,,so it spanish way of Football ⚽️ 😊

People forget that Merino didn’t have a preseason and he was injured early in the season. He’s just playing his way back into full fitness. He’ll be firing once he’s up to speed
@adekolaadeleke1835Ай бұрын
I think Arteta should try a combination of Odegaard, Partey and Merino in midfield. The later two can make good tackles and also play make. Rice should be benched for now, he is not in form presently.

I still have arteta to blame, cos I don't understand for 5years u keep doing the same thing, u won't listen, proving stubborn, this team needs a proven striker yet he won't buy...
