Founder of Arsenal Fan TV, Robbie Lyle, says there is a lot of frustration from the Arsenal fan base over Thomas Partey’s injury issues.
He said this about the Ghanaian midfielder when he made an appearance on Citi TV’s Premier League Preview Show.
The sports personality is in Ghana with members of the Arsenal Fan TV crew for a viewing party of The Gunners English Premier League game against West Ham at the Legon City Mall on Sunday, February 11 at 14:00 GMT.
Addressing team related issues, Lyle touched on Partey’s importance to Arsenal’s quest to win the English Premier league title because of his quality but bemoaned the Ghanaian’s worrisome health.
“I definitely think Arsenal have a chance, we’ve got a very good side and if we can get some players back I mean if we can get Thomas Partey fit, you know, he can be a key player for us, if we got Partey and (Declan) Rice in that midfield, you never know but we are in it.”
“There is a lot of frustration because we all know how good he is. We all know that this guy, if he’s playing games for our team, we’ve got great chances of winning games…but he’s been literally injured the whole season.”
Partey has played just four times this season in the league for Arsenal.
