Arsenal: Thomas Partey sings his initiation song to the squad
Arsenal's summer signing Thomas Partey is more than capable of playing for Liverpool, Manchester United or Manchester City, according to Paul Merson. Partey hasn't had an easy ride at Arsenal since joining on deadline day last month.
“He could play for anyone, I look at Manchester City, Manchester United, Liverpool.
“I can’t speak highly enough of him, it’s an absolute steal for Arsenal.”
But Merson is disappointed Partey won't be able to line up alongside Mesut Ozil, who has been cast aside by Arteta this season.
“They've got that player now. Before you looked and you thought 'not good enough in midfield'," he added.
