Arsenal midfielder Thomas Partey could reportedly start the game against Everton. The midfielder was also used as a substitute against Leicester City.
Hence, the Gunners will hope that he plays from the start against Toffees. Mikel Arteta has also said that they have missed him in the last few games.
ARSENAL HOPING TO HAVE THOMAS PARTEY AVAILABLE FOR THE UPCOMING GAME
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has said that he hopes to have Thomas Partey available against Everton. He has also said that he will take the decision on the day of the game. However, he has also admitted that the team have missed him in the last few games. Hence, they hope that Thomas Partey does not suffer any injuries for the rest of the season.
Mikel Arteta speaking on the Arsenal midfielder further said, “The question mark on Thomas. He hasn’t trained much but looks like he could be available. Let’s see how he goes today. We’ve missed him in the past few games and hopefully he’ll be back.”. The Gunners could also have Emile Smith Rowe available for the game against Everton.
EMILE SMITH ROWE WILL PROVIDE A OPTION GOING FORWARD IN THE LAST HALF OF THE GAME
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has also said that he hopes to have Emile Smith Rowe on the bench. Emile Smith Rowe also played with Jakub Kiwior for the U-21s against Chelsea. Mikel Arteta further said, “Really good. Obviously, they needed some minutes and at the moment they haven’t had much exposure for different situations. It was great to see them on the field because we’re going to need them in the next couple of games.”
Hence, Arsenal will have the energy of Emile Smith Rowe from the bench. However, it is also clear that he will have to prove his quality back from the injury. This is because Gabriel Martinelli and Saka are irreplaceable from the starting line-up at the moment. Hence, players like Reiss Nelson and Smith-Rowe will have to prove their worth from the bench.
Arsenal are also hoping to have Gabriel Jesus available in the upcoming weeks. Whereas, Mohamed Elneny is likely out for the rest of the season. However, his recovery is going well. Therefore, the Gunners have also extended his contract for the next season.
