127 Carney Chukwuemeka has been ranking some of the biggest names in world football.
Taking part in a TikTok challenge on Chelsea’s page, Chukwuemeka has been tasked with ranking some of the game’s top players, and he made a very interesting claim about one Arsenal player in particular.
Indeed, while the likes of Karim Benzema and George Weah made it close to the top of Chukwuemeka’s list, towards the bottom were some more current domestic names.
Interestingly, Chukwuemeka had to rank both Thomas Partey and Liverpool’s Andrew Robertson, and, ultimately, he ranked Partey as the better player.
This is a very interesting one, and it’s a debate that is actually tough to get your head around.
Partey and Robertson are two entirely different players, but, in our view, Chukwuemeka has got this one wrong.
Robertson was, at his peak, and potentially still is, a world-class talent. There was a long period where he had to be considered one of the best left-backs on the planet, and he has the trophies to back that claim up.
Meanwhile, Partey is a top player in his own right, but, at the same time, he’s been very inconsistent over the years for Arsenal, and injuries have stopped him from reaching his full potential.
On the other side of the coin, Robertson has been Mr. Reliable for Liverpool for a long time, he’s turned up time and time again in big games, and he really does play a massive part in the Reds’ success, grabbing assist numbers that are comparable to Trent Alexander-Arnold’s.
Partey was brilliant last season, there’s no doubt about that, but Robertson has been doing it at the top level for much longer and much more consistently.
When all is said and done in this game, Robertson will surely leave behind a greater legacy than Partey.
Unfortunately, we have to disagree with Chukwuemeka’s ranking on this occasion.
