I believe jorginho staying is not only for football reason, he also have some leadership qualities which we need as a team..
The vibetarian too
Very true
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
U know ball bro
You get it. Look at the hole in that Chelsea dressing room
Jorgi is gonna coach with arteta one day
Good shout, not the worse mentor
The worst mistake that Arsenal will do to let Thomas partey go next season
The guy hasn't played all season and you think he is vital 😂? He is a sick note. Go do some research and find how many games he has missed for Arsenal. We need an upgrade on him and better to sell him when he still has any kind of market value. The team ate all the meat on the bone 98% of it. Partey gets fit and licks 2% of the bone and you lot think he is crucial to our team?
Arsenal fans and romanticism. We need to sell him whilst he has some value left. The team coped with 70% of the season without him. Martin Zubimendi or Bruno Guimaraes would give us more quality.
Let his stay for a one more season
We should rly be keeping both Jorginho and Partey and buying a new quality long term Partey replacement
That's the problem. Do you envision a DM signing coming to be behind TP5, J20 & Rice? Even if we move Rice to L8 permanently, would a new signing accept to be in rotation with J20 & TP5 for minutes? Lastly, would it be a useful allocation of resources to spend the amount of wages needed on 3 players for the same single position? If we buy a new 6, one of J20 & TP6 has to go. If we keep both, then we are most likely eyeing a L8 and not a 6. This will mean that we have 2 DM6's (TP5 & J20) and 2 L8's (Rice & a new signing). This will allow us to manage TP5 minutes and fitness thus making him available for the big games where we really need him. My thinking is that we'll keep both Partey and Jorginho, get a L8 to play with Rice and move Kai to F9.
@@felixsumba2576 Ok I think “Partey replacement” wasn’t the best choice of words. What I really meant was a midfielder with Partey’s attributes who can play both no6 and no8. Like you said, we do need another 8 other than Rice. But as you know Partey is too injury prone and Jorginho will be our last choice midfielder next season. Over the last 2 games, it’s been proven yet again how badly we need Partey’s attributes, and whilst Jorginho has filled in better than expected this season, it’s still not quite enough for us to go all the way. So we need a Partey alternative who’s better than Jorginho and not far off Partey at the very least. Another reasoning I have is that Partey’s contract expires at the end of next season. Therefore, perhaps we could convince the new midfielder to share minutes with Partey in the upcoming season and the following season he’ll fully take over from Partey if he does well.
@@felixsumba2576a new DM isn’t going to be behind Rice but will play with Rice..if we get a new DM, he will be behind Partey but ahead of Jorginho
Partey is super as a 6 but what worries is his availability, if a player won't be available most of the season then it becomes very difficult for the club to keep him, his quality not Withstanding.
Keep Partey and Jorgi
You are on point
It's called strength within the squad
@@ObviouslyKieran who? Who the fk are u going to attract to the club to be 3rd string midfielder that is better than jorginho
Thomas Partey isn't going anywhere unless we find that quality. We can't get rid of senior players while they're still quality.
Absolutely true
He can't pocket 250k a week n play 10 games ..he's on his last yr we need to renegotiate n extend him for 100k a week which might be what he must be valued at
Another average player contract extension 😤… Nkethia, Nelson, Eleny, Cedric, Smith Rowe, Fabio Veri, Lokonga, Tevere, Jorginho, Kia Harvert and Tomiasu are all Average Players that need to be flushed out 😤
Arteta will have learned from selling Xhaka at the wrong time, he won't repeat the mistake. Eleney, Nelson, Eddie, Jesus, Zinchenko, possibly Kiwior are all areas that can be upgraded. Jesus.has been an utter failure as leading striker this year. His style greatly greatly reduced our ability to score and if we do not win the PL this eadon I would argue his return from injury and forced inclusion in tje latter part of both seasons had cost the PL on both occasions. He is basically not effective at scoring or being effecting to score. He jas no discipline and his final shot is not prioritized which is crazy for a 27 striker. His knees are done also.
Partey is to stay . he's another level
When he's fit.
Hope so
For 10 games a season. I love that guy, but he's rarely played 🤦🏿♂️😮💨
Partey should stay until we win the EPL title with him. Why would anyone extend Jorginho's stay but sell Partey? We need a squad depth.
another level of useless. I can go without his 6 appearances every season.
Extend Partey for another 2 years please. We really haven't seen the Rice and Partey duo until recently and with more games together they can only get better.
Partey in 4 years hasn’t shown he can be reliable.
No point selling Partey. We don't need to make money back on every single player. If anything, give him a 1-year extension.
What Does This Mean For Partey? Nothing.
Simple and True answer. NOTHING
I wish I understand the question well lol
Exactly 😂
Thats what I thought when i saw rhat question. It's silly really
Partery is good but you need to consider his availability. This guys plays only few game per year.
Partey plays 40 matches last season in all competition so I believe if we can manage his injury problem he also deserve a new contract because it's not his fault to be injured.
Thomas Partey is now back n is 🔥❤
But it’s the summer break
We need an injury free version of Partey as well :( Jorgi is a good team player for certain situations
Keep Partey as well for his last season of his contract and we’re all very happy, J20 deserves it and Partey when healthy is world class
It's better to keep a player that's contributing as opposed to players who take up space but no involvement
I LOVE THE DIRECTION THERE,BUT OUR DEFENCE IS GOOD CAZ WITH TOMI AN TIMBER BACK WE COULD ROTATE PLAYEES JUST NEED FORWARD N REPLACIN SUBS
Very good news, Partey hopefully will get a new contract too he's shown how brilliant he is lately and when he's not injured he's one of the very BEST!
Yes, keep Partey. However we need another solid CB if Gabriel or Saliba is out Kiowr aint on par with them.
I’d put Kiwior out on loan
I'm just glad we have them both, we need them both. They're the main reason we dominate the midfield and suffocate teams!!!
Partey is such a crucial player for us....yet he has missed 70+matches for us. I want Partey but we don't often have Partey
Keep both Jorginho & Partey and use them both as back up !
If Partey stays fit, there’s NO WAY Arteta will sell him. Partey makes us BETTER, no matter how good we are without him. He’s Arteta’s first big money signing.
How does Arteta know if he'll stay fit or not?
I’m leaning towards keeping Partey too, when he's fit he's exceptional, we’ll get peanuts for him & with Elneny leaving we need another midfielder anyway - it all depends on the finances. Of course if somebody offered £45m for Partey that would change things but I don’t think that will happen. A decent replacement would be £60m+ ! We can manage Partey's fitness & rotate him in as required, Jorginho is more of an 8 than a 6 (6 at a push) because of his lack of mobility - personally I want someone else who can play 6 (in rotation with Partey) so Rice can continue to play 8.
People have to remember that there will be even more games next season and we will be letting go of elneny.
Really glad he is staying
El neney been at the club since 2016 injured that breaks Danny welbeck injury record
@@shadowaussie1012that is not true. 2023 was the first time Elnenys was unavailable for more than 100 days due to injury. He was out for 249 days. The second longest amount of time he has been unavailable due to injury is 66 days. However Welbeck was unavailable due to injury for more than 100 days on more than 3 occasions.
Partey when fit is the best CDM in the PL ahead of Rodri.keep both bring in a new one as Eleny will be leaving…what if he played with Rice and Odegard against Bayern🤔we’ll never know but Gorestka would never have overpowerded the midfield
He’s gonna end up coaching at the club, wouldn’t shock me to see him in Arteta’s staff before he gets a job
Classy player. Hold on.
Keep partey until we get a like for like profile player.. but i dont know how many are there like him. Partey stays, jorginho stays, get one more. Then one for saka and then finally a striker. Might get one of those from leverkusen
I think he’s a great squad player to have
And also look at where Haverts is playing now, probably they are moving Haverts as a sticker and that leaves the space in the middle to fill in a new player
We definitely need to keep both Jorginho and partey they both can rotate because they’re both good players
Good...... We need to keep a player like Jorginho around, his wealth of experience is invaluable to the team and, to be honest....... he's had a fantastic season and contributed massively to the team. The TP question is another issue that we need address, when he's fit he's the player we want to see in the midfield with Declan Rice but, in my opinion, we need to bring in another top quality younger 6/8 player. Unless we can get £20+ million for Thomas, we might as well keep him.
Keep him and bring another young ster that can challenge, we were often stretched in the option. You need 4 CMs for the season
It means we can have players rotating more often and still have quality on pitch Love it more of that please arteta
One word: Deserved
Partey is just completely a different level to jorgi. That said i dont have a problem with the new contract i think the squad need to hold on to some experienced winners for the younger players and he seems to get arteta so whatever works for them. That still means we need to sign 1 or 2 midfielders.
Jorginho is a GREAT squad player! 🙌👌
We need Jorginho n Partey for when we when the treble next season
That's a mixture of experience n squad depth. Wise decision. We need this experienced player.
Very glad he’s staying.Quality player with great experience.
He just deserves it 👏 🤧
Jorginho is pure quality
No brainer. He's an extension of the Manager on the pitch, similar to Xhaka. A young team needs that as much as talent.
Brilliant glad he's been offered a new contract
People don’t realise but Partey is so good and important to how we play. Had it been any other player, Arteta would’ve binned them ages ago. But Arteta himself knows, especially the success last year was built around Partey at the base, hence why we haven’t played as fluid as last year. Real ones also know, replacing him is as difficult as trying to get Rodri from city and he’s the only possible replacement
Been waiting on this news. Keep Jorginho. He's a good squad player but a better teammate to the squad.
Happy to hear he’s staying!! He’s the kind of player where any club would love to have. He brings so much to the team
When Jorginho came, he said he phoned Havertz and said "come, you have to come"... Now Havertz is here and COOKING, why would he leave? 🤷🏾♂️
Perfect. Squad needs to be strong
Makes perfect sense for Jorginho to resign since he is very important off the pitch and on the pitch when it comes to getting us through big games. He essentially coaches the team when playing. I see Elneny going and Partey purely cause of injury. I would love a zubermendi to come in to be that dm and rotational piece with Rice to help mamage his minutes.
It's important to think about Jorginho's impact on the other players. A Brazilian KZhead channel (Desimpedidos) interviewed Edu and all the Brazilian players. Big Gabi and Martinelli both said that Jorginho is like a father figure to them. Big Gabi said, "I always say, if he leaves, I don't know what will become of me." Jorginho speaks up when he sees anything wrong, and not just to the other players. In such a short amount of time, Jorginho really is important to Arsenal and this extension is great for the entire club.
Nice. They need a father figure. Why don't we hire someone for less money to do this job. Could provide counseling too.
jorginho is nice dont get wrong, but partey is a different level when he comes on. he's just too injury prone
Fans like you are the reason why we hang on to players for snetimental reasons. Partey is world class no doubts about that, but how many more seasons do you want to go with injured and unavailable players derailing our season? It's been 4 years with him already and he has not played 25 EPL games a season. Not good enougj.
Look , mate , as much as I love Partey, you can’t rely on him physical form wise . You have to take hard decisions at Arsenal level . It takes ages with the his injuries and then getting his form back . He has never played full season without missing 2-3 months . Extending Jorginho is cheap reliable option for regista role (unique skill set ) . I am for Jorginho, and for selling Partey , buying another quality CM/ CDM.
@@piusokwu3560 I mean that's a damning sta but wrong, he played 33 games in the league last season so missed 5 games, played 40 games in all competitions....
There’s going to be more games next season with the new CL format. So it’s great if we can keep both
@@andronovmcan you name another number 6 who is better than Partey that we can realistically attain?
Not football related and Cecil will never see this but that guy has really improved his hosting/ interviewing skills since he joined AFTV. Good to see people given a chance and really flourish given time
Partey should stay too
Then he’ll get injured again and you’ll want him to go…..
@@coasters4life388then he’ll play 3 good games in a full season & repeat cycle
He's too injury prone and he's on high wages
@@AfterForever-qu8rx donate him to us brothers ( Barca ) 😂😂
Stop being sentimental
Keep both… 1 in with Rice Partey and Jorginho… good options
Jorginho is a good keep.
I’m pretty sure that Partey will be offered a new contract or already signed one but the club just didn’t announce because of the press
He is just a really good backup for Rice and Partey….
If arteta realeses partey, maybe arteta has psychological problem
Im okay with Jorginho in the Elneny role next season, but if this gets in the way of a new CM/DM signing that can properly challenge for a spot in the XI then this is not a good move.
How is it getting the way he’s essentially free to sign and not on a lot for a rotation squad and with Partey, Smith Rowe question mark of staying and Elneny leaving you need him as a rotation squad player
Georginio does not free up Rice like Partey does. The last two games are direct evidence of that.
Cesil keep the viewers as long as you want mate I love you guys 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴
If we lost Partey, Jorginho and Elneny ....as well as Lokonga...it means we having to go out and buy 2-3 more midfielders as a focus, when we all know we really need a striker and right wing cover for saka.. so retaining Partey and Jorginho for now kinda makes sense if we can and focus transfer funds in areas we really need.
You have to know when to let players go we need fresh and improve upcoming talent the squad’s needs to strengthen in the midfield and up front
Great bit of business, should have been done before now. Been more reliable than Partey.
We will have almost 60 MATCHES next season. Since we've seen that he can come in and do a job in certain situations, i don't mind. Unlike Cedric, or Elneny, he will see matchtime.
Exactly. What we need to do is get rid of players that are not contributing.
I think Partey will stay as well with Elneny leaving so our midfield options would be: Rice Partey Jorginho (New signing) Odegaard and one of ESR/Viera. ESR more likely to leave. If partey does leave thou, we need to sign 2 midfielders.
FROM MY VIEW NOWU FONT THINK DEY GONE LET PARTEY GO THEY JUST NEED N GOOD FORWARD TOO ALSO N #8
As long as this isn’t instead of signing another midfielder and he isn’t boosting his wages too much I don’t see the problem.
We have players who can't help us; Elneny, Nelson, Cedric, Nketia, but have been at Arsenal for years. Partey is superb apart from injuries. Why not retain Partey as well. We should win a trophy with Partey
The issue with Partey is, he is close to world class, but ever since he came here, his injury record is crazy . If we sell him, we are not getting more than 40 million, but it will take above 70 million to replace him.
It doesnt take 70mill to replace a handfull of good performances a season
i think we should keep both of them partey and Jorginho, that will help us compete in all cups by rotating players , rice should rest during FA cup and energy drink cup competitions while playing in the EPL and UCL
Jorgi has been a great signing for AFC he brings skill and calmness on the pitch and he has an intelligent likable personality which blends in well at AFC now Partey is a much more gifted player in fact when on song he is world class BUT he is always injured,every January he misses a month at a vital time at the Afican cup and his position is vital to the team therefore he has to go Zubimendi to replace him would work.
Don't underestimate what he's giving outside the games - maybe more than in a actual games.
If we have Odegaard and Viera as 10 options Rice + a singing as 8 options Partey and Jorginho as 6 options That would be fine
I wouldnt mind this but if partey leaves then we need 2 midfielders.
@@EMAN4everlife 100% we need an 8 atm if Partey goes we’ll need a 6 too
@@gooner1756 Agreed bro. Its a good thing that the midfield market is stacked with fantastic options.
Viera, I had high hopes but he's not at the level we need.
Xavi simons and a backup for saka
Xhaka didn't stay because of the hate he had gotten for so long apart from his last season
I think there’s room for both Partey and Jorginho. That said, if someone comes in with a 20-30 mil offer for Partey then we have to take it and run.
Jorgi will be taking the Elneny role
That's what he should do but I'm still not happy
I can see why Jorginho is getting 1 more year extension, El Neny contract is up and decision will be made on Partey due to persistent injury's plus Lokonga is Arteta type of player ?....I can see Arsenal signing up Zubimendi.... plus striker and centre back
Big Jorgi!
Right choice As much as I love partey you can't trust him to stay fit. Buying a new DM and keeping Jorginho as backup is great .
We're finally getting to see what Partey and Rice look like together in midfield, and I love it. If we do get rid of Partey we need a player in that mould to replace him.
What's to happen with Sambi Lokonga?
the way arteta's managed partey's health this season is proof that he intends to keep partey. in seasons passed, arteta would have been trying to force partey back into the side as soon as he was nearly fit only for him to have a setback. besides, any offers for a player entering the last year of his contract and partey's fitness issues would receive derisory offers at best. arteta may keep partey and bring in zubimendi, allowing him to develop slowly behind partey the way that rodri did behind fernandinho. he may go with douglas luiz or bruno to have a more immediate effect. regardless, you don't move a player like partey, the young guy has to come in and "retire" partey.
This signing is magnificent, not just for the fact he still has so much to give, but also the fact he can continue his coaching journey and maybe even break into coaching at arsenal akin to Per Mertesacker.
There used times when we had be loads of creative and attacking midfielders. We do need a backup for Odegard too. And about ESR, would like to see regular game time for him to get back to his usual best (like he was 2 seasons ago). And what does Jorginho staying means for Partey? Well nothing.....Partey should stay as well. Hope we sign a striker, attacking midfielder and wingback. Even mid table teams have their strikers in top 6-7 in number of goals this season like Solanke, Hojlund. Though on one hand its a good sign, despite of our individual players not being in top goal scorers, we still have most number of goals score and top of the table, coz team is playing so well and more than one players scoring too. But on other hand we do need a striker, the gap we have will get filled. The games like Westham at home , Villa at home , we could have gone some points out of those and be in a better position now
Just noticed Cecil has quite a scar on his right cheek. Good news about the contract.
Guys, next year we gonna go to all trophies we need him
Brilliant move from Arsenal his experience and leadership that’s where Chelsea fucked up letting him go and getting a load of kids in their loss our gain😂
Jorginho is a great squad player to have. Keep Partey too. Partey is a different level when he plays. He is just injury prone. Means nothing for Partey
Good . Arsenal are learning . Pls tie down Partey also for three more years
Quality! I want partey to extend & be backed equally. Release Elneny Lokonga Nelson Nketiah Cedric. Replace those with class to truly compete for place in first + can be clutch off bench & we keep growing/blossoming scarily.
keep them both , need more players not less
Partey is world class MD who’s had who’s been unlucky with injuries. Our MD isn’t doing that worth out him. Never understand almost anything cecil goes on about. Never ever logic especially for guy who played a decent level. Logic like someone who just comments and never played. baffling bro.
I think this deal has no bearing on the Partey situation. It only means that Jorginho takes Elneny’s place in the squad while he hones his coaching skills and acquires the necessary badges for a coaching career afterwards.
are arsenal fans ever going to discuss how arteta told us that aaron ramsdale and raya would have equal playing time but only raya played the whole season .
People seem to suffer from memory loss! Our best period this season was after our trip to Dubai and it was Jorginho in the heart of midfield during that period. Now that Partey is back Jorginho is useless again lol
Both and him and Partey should stay, We should bring in a midfielder to take over Parteys position and give him the time to adapt to the team before being rushed into the starting 11. We should do the same with someone like a Zirkezee and Diamonde two high potential young talents who looks incredible should be given time to adapt. We've scored the most in the league and have the least scored against us. No need to make huge revamps when we've got a good thing going.
Elneny will be upgraded, plus another.midfielder, striker, winger and defender
Jorginho is a good squad player
Good. It’s time for us to start acting like a big club, getting rid of excellent players with bags of experience just because they are past 30 is such a silly thing to do. We need to let go of that, dont get why weve had that philosophy for so long. Look at Modric, Kroos, KDB… still the best in the game past 30
I like partey over Jorginho but it's time to move him on and get that Johnson from Tottenham what a player
