Following a tough 1-0 loss to Newcastle at St. James’ Park, Arsenal midfielder Thomas Partey believes that upcoming fixtures against Inter Milan and Chelsea provide the Gunners with the ideal chance to regain momentum and prove their mettle.

Arsenal’s narrow defeat, sealed by Alexander Isak’s early goal, marked the team’s second loss in three Premier League games, leaving Mikel Arteta’s side in fifth place with 18 points. Despite a determined fightback, Arsenal fell short, leaving them hungry for redemption.

Now, with a challenging schedule ahead, Arsenal travels to face Inter Milan in a high-stakes Champions League battle on Wednesday. Just days later, they will meet fierce Premier League rivals Chelsea, a game that could define their standing before the international break.

Reflecting on the Newcastle setback, Partey expressed the team’s determination to rise to the challenge: “We did our best to turn things around, but it wasn’t enough. But I believe this is the perfect moment to show who we really are—Arsenal. We’re ready to do whatever it takes.”

With Partey’s rallying words and Arteta’s strategic direction, Arsenal is set to make a statement against their formidable opponents.
