Arsenal limped to a 1-0 defeat to Leicester City on Sunday and it was not a memorable full Premier League debut for summer signing Thomas Partey. A late Jamie Vardy goal sealed victory for the Foxes and condemned Mikel Arteta 's side to their third defeat in six league matches this season. The Gunners have to pick up their form quickly, with a visit to Manchester United next on the agenda this weekend. Partey played the entire 90 minutes against Leicester, with Arteta choosing to adopt a 4-3-3 formation. After the £45million deal for Partey was completed, Arteta said the 27-year-old would allow his team to play a variety of formations.
