Crystal Palace score
in an away match for the first time ever in PL
Partey returned from a thigh injury to make his first appearance for the Gunners in over a month when he was named in the starting XI for the north London derby on Sunday.
Prior to the game Arteta told Sky Sports: “We didn’t expect him to be fit for the game but he has been training well and [is] ready to play.”
Arteta later confirmed Arsenal midfielder Partey set for MRI after aggravating injury in Tottenham loss.
The replays of Harry Kane’s fine finish to make it 2-0 to Tottenham Hotspur is a complete nightmare for Arsenal fans, with marquee signing Thomas Partey injured and unable to stop the counter-attack.
Jose Mourinho’s side had the numbers advantage on the break, leaving Son free to slip in Kane to set up the side’s second, but it all could’ve been stopped if Partey wasn’t injured.
Partey walked over to the sideline after a slide tackle on Steven Bergwijn moments before, the ace immediately walked off the pitch with a worrying injury concern.
Mikel Arteta actually had to push the midfielder back onto the pitch whilst Lo Celso was driving forward, but the Ghanaian pulled after just a couple of strides.
If Partey wasn’t sidelined due to the injury, he was in the perfect position to stop Son in his tracks.
Jose Mourinho reflected on a North London derby win that sends Tottenham top of the league:
“I am very happy with the result, the performance.”
“When you are 2-0 up, why expose your defence? You do not have to.”
Jose Mourinho makes a point that this is the new normal for Spurs:
"Many people would think Man City, Chelsea and Arsenal would be a moment for us to drop points & go back to ‘normality’ we didn’t go back to normality.”
Chelsea winger, Callum Hudson Odoi has been ruled out of Chelsea’s UCL match with Krasnodar after picking up a hamstring injury in training.
Only two players have made 25+ tackles and 25+ interceptions in the Premier League this season.
◉ N’Golo Kante
◉ Matty Cash
