(Reuters) - Arsenal's Thomas Partey struggled to adapt to the demands of the Premier League following his arrival from Atletico Madrid but the Ghana midfielder said that with his injury problems behind him he will soon hit top gear. Partey joined Arsenal on transfer deadline day for 50 million euros ($59.63 million) but injuries have limited him to just 16 appearances in all competitions this season. "It was difficult to get used to how the team play and I think the injuries are part of the adaptation but now I feel good," Partey said. I'm starting to get used to how my mates play and how the Premier League goes. Arsenal face Olympiakos in the first leg of their Europa League last-16 tie later on Thursday.
