The Ghanaian midfielder, though often sidelined by injuries, has consistently delivered strong performances for the Gunners when fit.

Partey has been in excellent form, even contributing a goal across his 12 appearances for Arsenal this season. During a pre-match press conference ahead of their game against Newcastle United, Arteta commended Partey’s contributions. "The one thing we needed was for Thomas to be at the level we expected," Arteta shared with the club's official website.

"He’s working incredibly hard to achieve what he’s doing now. He’s playing really well in various positions, adapting to different demands, and coping brilliantly. He’s a key player for us."

This season, Arteta has strategically deployed Partey as a right-back, showcasing his versatility and ability to adapt. The manager expressed satisfaction with Partey’s efforts and positional flexibility, stating, “He’s working hard and playing excellently in different roles, handling the challenges with ease.”

Despite injury setbacks, Partey has proven invaluable, contributing significantly whenever he is fit. His adaptability and strong performances continue to be crucial as Arsenal push for the Premier League title.
