EDITOR’S PICKS

Partey started the match at the Etihad but appeared to suffer the problem early on. He did not come out for the second half and was replaced by Albert Sambi Lokonga.

In his post-match press conference, Arteta said he didn’t want to take any unnecessary risks over Partey. He said: “He felt something and we didn’t want to take any risks so he couldn’t continue.”

However, the Spaniard then confirmed Partey will have a MRI scan to discover the extent of the issue. Arteta and Arsenal fans will be sweating over the results of the scan.

Partey has been hugely influential in the Gunners’ form this season. Arsenal’s only loss in the Premier League came when the Ghana star was missing through injury.

Arsenal are in the market for a midfielder before the end of the January transfer window. Mohamed Elneny is currently out with a knee injury and could miss the majority of the rest of the season.
