Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp acknowledged Thomas Partey’s contribution to Arsenal’s recent success in the English Premier League.
Liverpool, who drew 3-3 with Brighton in their last game in the English top division, will go to the Emirates to take on an Arsenal team that is currently in form.
Thomas Partey played a key role in Arsenal’s victory against Spurs in the North London Derby last weekend. The Black Stars midfielder scored the first goal for the Gunners in the encounter.
Speaking to Sky Sports Jurgen Klopp said:
“He’s brought Xhaka back on track, everyone knew how (good) Thomas Partey was when he was at Atletico, and now they’ve found a way how they want to defend. They played a different line-up on Thursday but still with lots of quality; it’s a young team, a very exciting team and doing very well, which is well-deserved,”
Partey has played five games in the Premier League this season. He did not feature in Arsenal’s midweek game in the Europa League.
