Meanwhile, Arsenal beat Rapid Vienna 2–1 in Austria and Owen Hargreaves praised the new Thomas Partey.
Follow all the latest gossip and updates on Arsenal transfers below. . .
Verdict
John Hutchinson of SunSport said: “Arsenal gave enthusiasts what they were looking to see, a first start for forty-five million pounds by signing Thomas Partey in midfield.
“But there was also something they didn’t need to see on screen: some other defensive display of terror.
“And again, questions will be asked as to why Emiliano Martinez allowed himself to leave while Bernd Leno committed a clanger. “
“First for the better, aside from the unbeatable 2-1 win. Partey showed in a few minutes what he will bring to the Gunners fold.
“Rarely, if ever, did he lose the ball. He constantly becomes impatient and if he doesn’t retire to make a defensive pass, he takes a leap forward.
Subs
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (in Nketiah position, 61) – 8
He immediately sought to bring his appearance to life and nevertheless sought to provide a way out for Partey. He served his purpose well.
With the time they spend together, those two can be fatal, but they will want the others.
Hector Bellerin (by Cedric, 61) – 7
It wouldn’t have cost much for the guy he replaced and did well to give him some rhythm.
Another big one for the winner.
Joe Willock (in Lacazette’s position, 84) – 6
He seemed reassured when he arrived.
Kieran Tierney (by Saka, 84) – 6
He did what he had to do as an expired submarine.
Reiss Nelson (in Pepe’s position, 4) – 6
Late submarine.
…
Mohamed Elneny – 6
Nothing less than Mesut Ozil – who watches from home – to be among the goal scorers.
This prediction may have been more false. It couldn’t be turned on too much depth.
Saka Bukayo – 6
Quiet for the bands and incredibly lucky to concede a penalty for handball in the 49th minute with a little very nervous defense.
A step back for the 19-year-old who otherwise sought to grow from party to match.
Eddie Nketiah – 6
Surprisingly quiet and lucky to have a yellow moment for breaking into Stojkovic at the beginning of the moment period.
Alexandre Lacazette – 6
Another that will be missing everywhere. Totally toothless and outgunned by Aubameyang when he entered.
…
Sead Kolasinac – 6
Poor performance, well-controlled demanding situations and did the right thing.
Nicolas Pepe – 6
The periods of play have happened to him having some imronta in the game.
Then, in spite of everything, he came to life with a magnificent loose kick in which Luiz nodded.
Thomas Partey – 8
Unsurprisingly, however, he looked ultra alert, either lifting the ball deeply and using it or sniffing it to check its luck on the most sensitive surface.
Owen Hargreaves said in BT Sport that you can say he’s a Champions League player because he seemed “too easy,” and you have to agree.
A stimulus for his full debut.
PLAYER RATINGS
Bernd Leno – 4
He made an early save just to deny Marcel Ritzmaier, but was absolutely guilty of granting at the beginning of the middle of the moment.
Honestly, I didn’t seem to need David Luiz’s pass so close to him, but there was no excuse for that howler.
Cedric – 6
A series of opportunities wasted with their deliveries, adding a corner in the part of the moment that went straight to goal.
He left much to be desired in the third final and failed to accelerate when Arsenal scored a goal.
David Luiz – 6
He well partnered with Gabriel in the baseline, but had an intellectual downdrop with the goal.
Arsenal have tried the fate with their passes close to their purpose so this season and have come back to bite them.
Purchased with a header.
Gabriel – 6
Really forged in the back and read the stage well in front of a team that has a lot of Arsenal behind.
FEET: RAPID VIENNA 1 ARSENAL 2
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang saved Arsenal’s redness with a win in what is expected to be the toughest match of his Europa League group.
The Gunners’ patron intended to spend a well-deserved night until Bernd Leno gave a purpose to his belligerent Austrian parts in the 51st minute.
But Leno’s awkwardness forced Mikel Arteta to turn to Plan B and send the most sensible scorer Auba to save the day.
And the veteran ahead did exactly what was needed, taking advantage of Hector Bellerin’s center in the 74th minute to secure the 3 points.

NO RETURN
Arsenal midfielder Lucas Torreira will remain at Atletico Madrid after his transfer expires at the end of this season.
The Uruguayan joined LaLiga this summer, while Thomas Partey has done the opposite in a forty-five million pound contract.
And the 24-year-old has no plans to return to north London.
He told Ovacion: “I have suffered many things, I have had many non-public disorders and more than my entire circle of relatives has also suffered.
“I know it’s been a year.
“But I’ve been here four or five days and I find it a lot, because I’ve been treated very well.
“This is a new opportunity in my life, in which I have fought a lot, because Atlético has been one of my dreams, one of my goals as a team.
“And success in it at 24 is a very important thing.
“It all depends on how the season goes, which I hope is very successful, and perhaps in the long run I can stay at the club. “
PARTY ENTRANCE

“It will bring a smart mindset, a smart balance in our game because that’s what we want a little more: the mentality to win.
“He played for Atletico Madrid, another type of football, and it will bring a lot of quality and mentality. “
OZIL AND BEYOND
Mesut Ozil still has several to escape Arsenal even if the European merchant is over.
The 32-year-old has played for the Gunners since March when Mikel Arteta’s team tried to drive the club’s best-paid player out.
But after failing in an agreement that paid off with the 350,000 euro German World Cup Champion as a result of the week, the striker stayed out of this fourth.
There are a number of hits that can still happen if you provide and leave, with the MLS being the favorite to have it.
The summer window in the United States would close until the week of August, but due to the coronavirus crisis, it has lasted until October 29.
And DC United is the newest to be connected with a shot for the ace.
Meanwhile, a season in South America can tickle you if you receive a be offer, and Brazilian groups have until November 9th to bring players.
A more likely monetary option may be the middle east laden with money.
PLAN B
FIFA manager Gianni Infantino has refused to accept the assignment of the European Super League, which strikes the plans.
World leader Infantino is said to have been the plans, drawn up through Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez and subsidized through Liverpool and Manchester United.
FIFA would have been subsidized through a 4. 6 billion pound concept for an elite of 18 closed clubs, adding five Prem giants, from the start of the 2022-23 season.
But Infantino defected from plans, insisting that his sole purpose was to organize the revised and expanded Club World Cup in China in 2022.
Infantino said: “As president of FIFA, I am interested in the Club World Cup, the Super League.
“I’m interested in Bayern opposing Liverpool, but Bayern oppose Boca Juniors in Buenos Aires.
“Liverpool has 180 million enthusiasts worldwide. I’m burning a few million. Flamengo has 39 of those millions of fans in Brazil.
“But Liverpool, however, has only five million enthusiasts in England, the remaining 175 million in the world.
“I need open-air clubs in Europe to have a global appeal in the future. My vision is this: they deserve 50 clubs and 50 national groups that can be world champions. “
GOD’S PLAN
Arsenal’s former goal, Jackson Martinez, is now a Christian rapper, but he can’t locate a team.
The 34-year-old striker has been following a hip-hop career for two years after releasing an album in 2018, Game Bible reports.
But he didn’t hit the scoreboard after leaving Portimonense’s Portuguese in August.
The Colombian has returned home after suffering persistent ankle injuries.
He signed a two-year contract with Portimonense first-class in January after spending the past on loan with the club.
Last week he released his most recent single “Listen” than from Spanish as “Listen”.
Follow his 2018 album “No Temeré”, which means “possibly wouldn’t temeria”.
COST WELL
Arsenal failed to reach an agreement with signing Philippe Coutinho because Barcelona may not signal a replacement, he said.
Several were fond of the Brazilian game maker after his assignment at Bayern Munich.
With Quique Setien, it became known that the 28-year-old did not have a long career at Camp Nou with Barcelona also desperate for money.
However, Ronald Koeman has taken the reins and given Coutinho a new life.
At the beginning of the autumn move-in window, Barcelona planned to sell liverpool’s former star to Tottenham and Arsenal warned of their availability.
And the Gunners were “very close” to an agreement before Koeman got rid of the cap, according to Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano.
SHK’S DECISION
Arsenal will arrive at Rapid Vienna in the Europa League on Thursday and Mikel Arteta is expected to announce the changes.

Sead Kolasinac will upgrade Kieran Tierney as the left-back.
After Shkodran Mustafi is seen aboard the flight to Austria, he will be compatible to leave with Gabriel, with Bukayo Saka holding his left back seat.
That’s how we’ll play the Gunners in their Europa League clash.
CLEAN THE MONTHS
Mesut Ozil believes his exile from arsenal’s team is due to his complaint of China’s remedy to Uighur Muslims, according to reports.
The 32-year-old German has been playing since March and is part of Mikel Arteta’s squad for the Premier League or Europa League.

Therefore, the organization agreed that the application of a philosophy “in case of doubt, them” would be the most productive solution to shield the fitness of footballers.
