Published on: 27 December 2021

Ghana midfielder, Thomas Partey has praised his teammates after Arsenal thrashed Norwich City 5-0 on Boxing Day in the English Premier League.

Partey lasted for 75 minutes as the Gunners secured their fourth Premier League victory in a row as they heaped more misery on bottom-of-the-table Norwich.

Bukayo Saka scored once in each half, sandwiched by a fine Kieran Tierney strike and an Alex Lacazette penalty and Emile Smith Rowe’s injury-time strike sealed the maximum points for the visitors.

"It is very enjoyable, I enjoy a lot playing with them," he told Arsenal Media.

"They are good talents, a lot of people around that can play with them and they have a lot of quality in front of goal and they can score at any time, so it is a joyful moment playing with them.

"We feel very happy. This is a game we really enjoyed. We have had a couple of games now where the team is doing very well and performing and I think this is what we have to keep doing.

"I think we are working harder, we are doing what we have to do, everyone is playing their role very well and that is the mentality that the coach wants us to play with and enjoy one the field and that is what we are doing."

Mikel Aretata's side maintains their six-point lead over fifth-placed Tottenham.
