Arsenal fans often dislike the international break due to its disruption of domestic football and
potential player injuries and fatigue from extensive travel. There’s concern regarding Thomas Partey’s availability for
Arsenal against Chelsea after being subbed off during a match for Ghana. However, it seems his substitution was a planned effort to manage his playing time due to prior injuries.
Despite this, his late return from an international match in the USA may impact his start in the upcoming Arsenal game against Chelsea.
Arsenal fans are hopeful to see Partey play in his preferred midfield role alongside Declan Rice,
but injuries have hindered consistent appearances this season.
