“He has everything”: Oleksandr Zinchenko names the Arsenal player who is greatly underestimated
Arsenal star Oleksandr Zinchenko has gushed about his Gunners team-mate Thomas Partey, saying he is the most underrated player in the Premier League.
Oleksandr Zinchenko said on Rio Ferdinand’s YouTube channel that his Arsenal team-mate Thomas Partey has everything you would expect in a defensive midfielder.
The Ukraine international, who can play at left-back or as a midfielder, has hinted that Partey is putting in tremendous performances in training sessions.
When asked about the Premier League’s most underrated player, Zinchenko said: “I think Thomas Partey.”

Zinchenko went on to describe Partey as one of the best defensive midfielders he has played with in his career so far.
When the Ukrainian struggled to decide between Partey and Manchester City midfielder Rodri, former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand was left in shock.
Ferdinand couldn’t believe the Arsenal star doesn’t think Rodri is better than Partey.
In response, Zinchenko said: “Come one day to see him training. Come and see him one day. He has everything.”
Partey is one of the best defensive midfielders in the Premier League and a key player for Arsenal.
Injury struggled when the Ghana international first joined Arsenal, but last season we saw just how good the former Atlético Madrid defensive midfielder is when he’s fit and available.
One of the main reasons Arsenal almost won the Premier League title last season was Partey’s form and performances.
Arsenal are the better side as the 30-year-old stands in the middle of the park and protects the Gunners’ back line.
Partey has made 84 Premier League appearances in his career so far.
The Arsenal star has scored five goals and provided three assists in those games.
