Ghanaian midfielder, Thomas Partey, has come under criticism by fans following his performance in Arsenal’s 1-0 win over Manchester United at Old Trafford on Sunday, May 12, 2024.
Mikel Arteta’s side put up a subpar performance against a depleted United side but managed to snatch the three points.
Leandro Trossard’s 20th-minute goal at the near post was all that mattered for Arsenal to continue their pursuit of the Premier League.
Although Partey had a passing accuracy of 93% and won all his ground duels, he was blamed by fans for Arsenal’s failure to dominate the game.

How is Partey getting any on the blame on the timeline? I’m looking at Rice and Odegaard who have basically been non existent. The whole team need to wake up though. Don’t be settling on this 1-0

What an absolute garbage performance from us. Midfield non existent. We looked like we came to sit back – against a Utd team that’s been leaking chances left and right. Sorry to say that was shambolic. Rice and Partey were horrendous on the ball. Zero control.

They are all hypocrites. Partey lost the ball only once, others did several times but only Partey gets called out and blamed by these deluded fans. https://t.co/2O0940uZ3A

Not impressed with how Arsenal played this evening. Partey was too volatile at the back on a couple of occasions.

Trossard and our CB’s seem to be the only people bang on today.

It’s a lesson for them to consult widely before doing things in the shadows. This one will sting. https://t.co/3LA4qkszp8
