Arsenal and Manchester United fans clash over Thomas Partey vs Casemiro debate

Manchester United fans argue that Partey is nowhere near the level of Casemiro, hence there should not be a debate about the two.

Whereas Arsenal fans hold that currently, Partey is the better player due to his influence, orchestrating the Gunner's outstanding run in the English Premier League.

Manchester United legend, Rio Ferdinand, in a viral video laughed loudly at the comparison between the Ghanaian midfielder and the Brazilian midfielder.

Ferdinand burst out laughing after his colleague chose Partey over Casemiro on his podcast, Vibe with Five.

After 14 matches in the Premier League, both players have scored two goals each but Casemiro has more goal involvement due to his two assists.

Partey has made 917 passes with 86.5% pass completion and 252 forward passes as compared to Casemiro's 697 passes with 80.5% pass completion and 228 forward passes.

On the defensive front, Partey has made 16 interceptions, won 30 tackles, won 19 aerial duels, made 2 blocks, and 11 headed clearances. Whereas Casemiro has made 17 interceptions, won 45 tackles, won 26 aerial duels, made 5 blocks, and 20 headed clearances.

Check out the debate between Arsenal and Manchester United fans below:

This opinion works out perfectly! You can keep Casemiro and we'll keep Partey, because I would never trade the two. Partey works perfectly for our system. I don't think Casemiro would shine in our system the way Partey does, meanwhile I think Partey fits in every PL side.

Allow the Casemiro vs Rodri/Partey comparisons. Casemiro has proven he's the best DM for years now. He's in the conversation for all time DMs, others ain't. He's still elite today and will be for a while

Mahn what's this Partey vs Casemiro comparison I'm seeing all over my TL? Partey stans are so shameless. Everyone is entitled to their opinion but this is ????????????. Case annihilated Partey in La liga and the obliteration is going to be epic in the Premier league.
