Arsenal have been warned they could be in "trouble" when they take on neighbours Tottenham Hotspur this Saturday by former Gunners defender Mikael Silvestre.
Mercurial midfielder Thomas Partey still has huge question marks over his fitness, after he withdrew from Ghana's recent friendly against Brazil during the warm-up after feeling some tension in his knee. The same injury ruled out him out of his country's next clash against Nicaragua just days later.
Instead of risking inflicting further damage to the problem area while away on international duty, Arsenal recalled Partey early so that their physio team could assess him themselves. Everyone associated with the Gunners knows how crucial Partey's presence will be when Spurs make the short trip across North London.
