Rio Ferdinand mocks Arsenal over Thomas Partey injuries

Rio Ferdinand has ridiculed Arsenal over the ongoing absence of Thomas Partey from their squad due to injury.

While the Ghanaian midfielder is a reliable player when on the pitch, his injury-prone history has become a significant concern for the Gunners. This issue has prompted Arsenal to explore options for a potential replacement in either the upcoming January transfer window or the summer.

Mikel Arteta’s side deems Partey too injury-prone to be a dependable presence, leading to efforts to facilitate his departure from the club. Partey has suffered at least two injuries in the current season and is presently sidelined with another.

Despite potential replacements such as Douglas Luiz and Martin Zubimendi being linked to the Emirates, Arsenal fans acknowledge Partey as one of the best players in his position when he is fit. The club faces the challenging task of finding a balance between retaining a valuable asset and addressing recurrent injury concerns.

Speaking on his Vibe with Five YouTube show, Ferdinand said: ‘Thomas Partey is irreplaceable by the way [according to Arsenal fans] but he ain’t been seen this season! Not even mentioned on the show.

‘What’s happened to Thomas Partey?! Where is Thomas? Someone free Thomas Partey. Please, I need to see him again man.’

Just Arsenal Opinion

Considering how terrible Partey’s injury record has been since he joined us, we are not surprised that Ferdinand is mocking us.

The midfielder must be offloaded and replaced by the end of this season.

  1. THERE COMES A POINT WHEN ALMOST ALL FANS WILL FINALLY SEE THAT PERENNIALLY INJURED PLAYERS ARE NOT WORTH KEEPING.
    On reading many posts I see we are now almost united in accepting PARTEY must leave. But its unlikely to be possible in JAN, as he will almost certainly still be injured.

    Great player when fit but useless overall, as he is hardly ever fit.

  2. Most probably he will be fit at the of the year and ready to go to play in the African Cup to get injury again until May/24.Finally we sell him in July24;end of this unsatisfactory relationship.
    Get then a much younger replacement.

  3. Jesus and Elneny should follow.They are also part of the group that is always on the treatment table. Why DO WE STILL HAVE THAT CEDRIC GUY?

    1. The two contributed better than any other in the last two seasons if are fair.Recently , yes, they havent been value for money.

  4. I don’t believe Ferdinand was mocking Arsenal over Partey’s injuries as such.
    Ferdinand was actually questioning the view that Partey is the defensive MF in the PL, when we have the likes of Rodri and our own Rice playing at such high levels. He than added some banter which has been twisted into this headline.
    Unfortunately, we now have cruel comments coming in because a player has injuries.

  5. Ferdinand is just echoing everything many Arsenal fans are asking themselves. There’s something sinister about Partey coming back from international duty, and his country coach declaring him fit only to be declared injured at Arsenal because Arteta insists on playing him out of positionto play as a quarter back. He doesn’t like the position, there’s no shortage of QBs, and it can only be out of malice that someone fears he will outshine his favourite, expensively acquired dream boys in DM. Displaced egos would rather a team suffers than accept reality.
