I think you kind-of have to grade Partey and Jorginho on a curve. They were thrown into a midfield where Rice, Odegaard and Merino were all unavailable, so they had to do the full 90 minutes with no relief from the bench. Jorginho especially should be given credit for coming in for his first minutes in what, half a year? They weren’t spectacular, but given the situation they handled it well.
I agree. I think that’s why I wanted to give him a slightly higher rating. He was coming into a game with very few minutes played, was pressing like he was 25 at 32. It was like he’d been playing week in week out.
It wasn’t on the same level as say maybe Big Gabby or Saka, but he stood up when we really needed him and did his part in attack and defence.

Yeah, I kinda wanted to change some of my ratings afterwards. I think Jorginho did better than what I gave him as well
