Ghana international, Thomas Partey has opened up on the difference he has seen in the English Premier League when compared to the Spanish La Liga.

According to the Black Stars talisman, the English top-flight league has high intensity and requires quick thinking at all times.

“Well, I think the intensity is different, the tactics is different, you can be pressed from every angle and you don’t have time to think. You have like 2 seconds to be able to think so you have to be quick. I think that is the only surprise I got,” Thomas Partey told Football Daily in an interview.

Meanwhile, the midfielder has urged his Arsenal teammates to take every remaining match in the English Premier League as a final.

He believes that it is the only way the Gunners can secure qualification to play in the Uefa Champions League next season.
