Thomas Partey has insisted he is happy to see Jorginho take his place in the Arsenal starting line-up because it means there is a healthy competition for places.
Partey has spent much of the campaign as one of the Gunners' first-choice midfielders, alongside Martin Odegaard and Granit Xhaka. But following a downturn in performances, boss Mikel Arteta opted to bench the Ghanian international in favour of Jorginho.
The Italian joined the Gunners from Chelsea in the January transfer window to add depth to Arteta's squad. But he has now edged out Partey in the selection battle, with a man of the match performance in the win over Newcastle making it increasingly hard to drop him.
