‘Partey not bossing Arsenal midfield’ – Keown disappointed by Ghana star

Former Arsenal star Martin Keown has slammed Thomas Partey for not ‘bossing’ Arsenal midfield after their 1-1 draw with Slavia Prague in the Uefa Europa League quarter-final.

Partey played for 78 minutes before he was replaced by Egyptian midfielder Mohamed Elneny at the Emirates Stadium on Thursday.

Prior to his substitution, the Black Stars midfielder managed to make one key pass with two tackles and two interceptions completed.

“Partey, as well, tonight, was another player that really disappointed me,” Keown told BT Sport via Mirror.
