A number of Arsenal fans have taken to Twitter to react to the news confirmed by The Athletic that Thomas Partey is fit and available to face Liverpool in the Premier League this weekend.

And the 28-year-old ultimately did not end up joining up with the Ghana squad during the break. So some must have feared that he would be out of the side for the trip to Merseyside.

That would have been a big blow for Mikel Arteta’s men. After a difficult first season at the Emirates, Partey has looked a lot better this term. He has reminded many of why it seemed such a coup for the Gunners to bring him to North London from Atletico Madrid.

Unsurprisingly, plenty of the Arsenal fans on social media have expressed their delight at the news.

Mikel Arteta’s men go into the game off the back of a superb run of form. They are unbeaten in eight in the Premier League.

Faring well in that midfield battle could be pivotal as Arsenal look to extend that run at the home of the Premier League’s most lethal attack.
