Arsenal utilized a behind-closed-doors friendly against QPR to provide much-needed minutes to first-team players who are not on international duty. Thomas Partey and Takehiro Tomiyasu featured in the match, with Partey playing for 60 minutes and Tomiyasu for 45 minutes. However, Jurrien Timber did not participate as he continues his rehabilitation from ACL surgery.
The game, held at one of QPR’s training pitches, primarily showcased Arsenal U21 players vying to impress manager Mikel Arteta. The Gunners had not played since their Champions League qualification victory over Porto on March 12 and are gearing up to face Manchester City on March 31. Partey recently made his official comeback after a five-month absence due to thigh surgery. He played the final minutes in Arsenal’s win over Brentford and is gradually being reintegrated into regular football.
Meanwhile, Tomiyasu, who struggled with a calf problem, returned to action against QPR after signing a new contract. The return of Tomiyasu provides Arteta with additional defensive options, while Timber, still recovering, is expected to return to match fitness next month. Despite his eagerness to feature, Arteta remains cautious about risking the Dutch full-back’s recovery process.
