Former Black Stars winger Laryea Kingson has shared his thoughts on who he believes is the better player between Michael Essien and Thomas Partey.

According to him, the former Chelsea midfielder and his Black Stars teammate is above the Atletico Madrid player.

“They [Partey and Essien] all have their strengths and weaknesses but I will say I was privileged to play alongside Michael Essien. We all know the work he did at Chelsea. Partey has done well and is still doing well but Essien was something else.”- Laryea Kingston told Joy FM.

I knw the stat fanatics ll pull out Essien vs Partey stats soon but there is more to football than just numbers.If u are richer than ur father,it doesn't mean u are wiser than him. More often than nt stats r deceptive nd doesn't tell the whole story in football.

— Opoku-Amoako Kingsley (@opokuamok) May 8, 2020

The problem with the stat generation is a complete lack of context for anything.

Essien played at a time when the midfield was not Africa class – it was world class and loaded. The team didn't depend on him for goals like it does for Partey. https://t.co/LNo4uq0ToP

Dont chew my Boy!! he's only stating facts.Will be blasphemous to suggest Partey is better than Essien.He won't dare.Let's accept the fact..Essien is a Monster..Bison!! proper defence shield and scorer of many important goals matched with trophies.❤ https://t.co/GHWHVECJUj

Essien won Premier league 2006,2010 ;
3 FA cups and one league cup, 1 English super Cup
Essien won Champions league 2012, also a finalist in 2008
He won Chelsea goal of the season twice in 2006/7 and 2008/9
2X ligue 1 champion
2X French super cup winner

Who is Partey???

— 3tw3 Sarfoa😂 (@therealokine) May 8, 2020

And no, Partey is not even playing at Essien's Lyon level when he was the best player in France.

We can appreciate Partey without remotely drawing Essien in. Blasphemy at this stage.

What aaah Essien do Partey no dey do?

— dziwornu (@_efoooo) May 8, 2020

Michael Essien and Partey’s argument isn’t even something to debate on

Michael Essien is who a lot of Ghanaian midfielders aspired to become including Partey

Essien at Chelsea, 2006 WC qualifiers, 2006 WC, 2008 Afcon.

Top notch performances throughout. Partey no go fit!

— Kelewele Joint 🍟 (@Ankamagyimi) May 8, 2020

You People Are Comparing Partey To Essien Or You're Just Stating Stats.

Have You Ever Wondered Why Partey Wears The #5 Jersey?? It's Because He Wanted To Be Like Essien.

You People Just Dey Compare Anything Anyhow. You Don't Know Sh!t In Football Arh😂😂😂😂
