Klopp said: “Thomas Partey, everybody knew how good he is when he was at Atletico.”
Big player for the Gunners
In our view, Thomas Partey is an important player for Arsenal and will be massive against Liverpool at the Emirates Stadium in North London in the Premier League this weekend.
When fit and available, the Ghanian is one of the first names on Mikel Arteta’s teamsheet.
Partey being the defensive midfielder in the Arsenal team allows Granit Xhaka to venture further forward.
That will be a key factor in the Gunners potentially winning against Liverpool this weekend.
Arsenal will have home advantage against Liverpool, but Partey needs to be on top of his game if the Gunners are to win against the Reds.
