Declan Rice (41)

Fuming. People are spouting so much filth there for Elon bucks.

Was from pre-game :pires2:

What’s the source?

According to BBC this is what he said:

Slavia coach Jindrich Trpisovsky was also full of praise for Mikel Arteta’s side and added: "If I had to say what the dangers are of this team I would be here for more than two hours.

"They are a well-developed team, they have games under control, they have a lot of technical quality with big, fast, strong players.

"Inter [Milan, who Slavia lost to in their second Champions League match] were strong at set-pieces, but Arsenal are stronger. They are a top team with the best sporting level, the best fitness and the best evolved.

If you even rate Rice, and he does have a lot of great qualities, playmaking definitely isn’t one of those.

I mean, I’m sure he can look great at any position/role against Sparta Praque but I’m talking about actual top level football.

:pires2:

Ah so progressive passes do matter, don’t they?

The way Rice covers ground is the way people imagine Ozil covered ground when simply looking at his stats. :heart:

That slip towards the end had me worried but the way he recovered so quickly made no sense.
He really wasn’t lying when he said he was abnormally stretchy.

Don’t make up stuffs.

Not making anything up

No one here compared Ozil 's coverage to Rice’s

It’s honestly not that deep @ronniec .
And I rate both.

World class

Untrue, i did.

Yep you are.

He was so good in the second half, but looked absolutely exhausted towards the end. Perhaps he needs to rest a little bit more? He is so valuable to the team when he plays like this that I’d be seriously worried for our campaign if he got a long term injury. He does so much work for us.

Hopefully that knobhead tuchel will give him a rest over the international break but I’ve no doubt he’ll play all the main guys in two meaningless games
