‘It was a ruse’: Arsenal have been trying to hide £45m player’s injury ahead of Man United game
Journalist Charles Watts has shared an injury update on Thomas Partey ahead of Arsena🗹l’s game against Man♍chester United today.
Speaking on his Watts said that Partey was injured in training towﷺards the end of this week.
He confirmed that🧜 ♌Arsenal had been doing their best to hide the information from Manchester United.
: “Thomas Partey got inju🌳red basically in training.
“Arsenal have been doing their best to keep it under wraps, even a brilliant decision to put the pictures up on the website saying it was yesterday’s training and you could se✤e Thomas Partey in the background.
“Obviously it wa🎃s a ruse t𝕴o try and throw Manchester United off the scent.
“It was tough to nail down exactly what had h🦄appened but it was clear that overnight on Friday into Saturday that Thomas Parte🎐y had suffered some sort of injury.”
Watts l𒁃ater that Partey will be missing for today’s game.
And whilst this will be unwelcome news for Arsenal fans, it does already prove the importance of Declan Rice.
Watts said Arsenal had been trying to hide the Partey injury
Partey has often been injured for ꦯkey Arsenal games in recent seasons and it was always a huge blow.
And of course the team is worse off without him today but Arsenal do finally now have an adequate re♊placement.
Fans will surely expect Rice to sit at the base of midfield today in a more traᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚꦕditional 4-3-3 from the off.
Partey’s𝔍 shouldn’t be as disruptive as it has been inꩲ the past.
And although it seemed that Arsenal didn’t want Manchester United to be priv🔴y to his information, they should have a strong contingency plan.
Despite knowing the injuryꩵ news, it would seem journalists like Watts were happy to withhold the news in respect of Arsenal’s position.
However, with the new💯s already very public, Manchester Un𓄧ited may now be planning a side to exploit the gap left by Partey.
