Arsenal midfielder Jorginho on Partey rivalry: We can play together

Arsenal midfielder Jorginho says he won't be watching title rivals Manchester City.

The Gunners moved within a point of the leaders after yesterday's win at Newcastle.

Asked if City would be feeling pressure, Jorginho said: “To be honest, I don't know.

“I will be honest with you, I am not watching their games - because if we don't win here, it doesn't matter. As long as we are winning, we are doing our part.

“At the end, we are going to see what happens. We don't know [what will happen]. We know what we can do and we need to focus on that. Then they have their things to do and they have things to think. That's it."

The midfielder said of his rivalry with Thomas Partey, he added: “I think we are two different players that can adapt for the coach in different games.

“I think the coach has two good choices and depending on what game, and what type of players he wants on the pitch.

“The only thing we can do is be ready when he needs us and give our best to help the team."
