Manchester United legend, Gary Neville has taken a swipe at Arsenal midfielder, Thomas Partey following the Gunners defeat to Brighton on Sunday.
The Ghana international was left on the bench once again as Arteta's side hosted Roberto De Zerbi's side.
Partey was in brilliant form earlier in the campaign, which helped Arsenal to a healthy eight-point lead over City as recently as six weeks ago.
But he’s been well below his best in recent weeks, which has seen City leapfrog Arsenal.
The defeat at the Emirates on Sunday now leaves Mikel Arteta’s men four points behind City with just two games to play.
And according to Neville, Partey's loss of form was a huge blow to Arsenal’s title credentials.
"He’s been in a shadow of himself in the last few weeks, Partey,’ said Neville as reported by the metro.co.uk.
"He has been nowhere near it. A large part of the season, he has been fantastic.
"His form and composure have deserted him at the most vital time," he added.
Partey’s form has seen him lose his spot to Jorginho in midfield in recent weeks.
