Fans clamour for Partey contract extension after masterclass performance against Madrid

Thomas Partey showed a master class performance against Madrid while Declan Rice was performing magic, trashing the defending champions 3-0 at the Emirates Stadium. The Ghanaian midfielder was in control of Arsenal’s midfield, deciding the pace of the game and controlling how slow and fast the game moves with ease.

The magnificent thing about the Ghanaian’s performance was his ability to read the game and predict the movements of the Madrid team. He repeatedly intercepted the ball back from his opponent midfielders and then went ahead to distribute it to his teammates with precision, accuracy and technique. This permitted Arsenal to hold possession and build attacks from the back, that made Real Madrid’s defence struggling to keep up.

Partey had an impressive 92% passing accuracy,  4 duels won, 7 accurate passes into the attacking third and 6 ball recoveries. These statistics tells it all. The unthinkable was how Partey seemed to drift easily across the pitch, picking out passes and finding space where spaces were not seen.

Partey’s performance was a masterclass in midfield play. He showed some level of intelligence, vision and technical ability that every modern midfielder showed possess.

The Ghanaian’s player performance was not just about his individual skill, however. He was also an essential part of His team effort, working very hard to support his teammates and provide the link between the defense and the attack. His energy level was effective throughout the game, and he always wanted to put in a tackle or make a recovery to gain back possession for his team.

He has constantly shown his ability to perform at the highest level, and his display against Real Madrid was a reminder. With players like Partey in their team, Arsenal have a good chance of proceeding to the Finals of the UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE
