Thomas Partey is under heavy fire from Arsenal fans after the Gunners’ Champions League elimination, with supporters demanding his immediate sale following his performance against PSG.
Arsenal’s Champions League dream ended in Paris—and fans aren’t just upset at the result, they’ve directed their anger toward one man: Thomas Partey.
The Gunners were defeated 2-1 on the night and 3-1 on aggregate by Paris Saint-Germain in the semi-final second leg. While Bukayo Saka scored a late goal to raise hopes of a comeback, it was Fabian Ruiz and Achraf Hakimi who ultimately sealed PSG’s path to the final.
The tipping point for fans came after Hakimi’s goal in the 72nd minute, where Partey was directly involved with a critical error in midfield. His poor positioning and decision-making drew immediate backlash online.
Arsenal supporters took to social media to vent their frustration:
- "That's why he needs to go. The man is not a player you can rely on for anything."
- "Don't send him back to London."
- "He played like a stink."
- "The worst game, everything he tried was good for PSG."
- "He cost Arsenal in both games, it's time for him to go."
- "I thought he was the solution today, but his two mistakes led to the goal."
Many fans believe that Partey, once seen as a reliable presence in midfield, no longer offers the consistency needed at the top level. His performances across both legs have intensified calls for Arsenal’s leadership to offload him in the upcoming transfer window.
Arsenal’s Champions League campaign ends in disappointment, while Inter and PSG will battle for the title in Munich on May 31.
