Declan "Deccers" Rice

Sicario2 - Tier 1

Has us qualifying for the last 8 of CL unlocked a trigger in our minds where we can now accept our recent historic downfalls because we are confident we are a ‘big club’ and on the rise again…

Or simply it’s easier to reminisce the old times, good or bad, when the new times are finally acceptable after 20 years of relative heartache?

Sicario2 - Tier 1 both

RocktheCasbah if cashley doesn't bail us out there, we don't beat inter 5-1 imo

RocktheCasbah

Gazza M absolutely agree.. think the whole season would have taken on a very different tenor too. Although, the other way of looking at it is we wouldn't then have been Wayne Bridged.

Gazza M

SimplyThePest that moment for me was when he was given the run-around by a 3-man midfield at selhurst park in 2005.

04/05 definitely felt like the last hurrah for 44 facking 2.

Rohit

daredevil Also, I thought Lehmann was quite poor in his debut season. He made a number of high profile errors and didn't really come into his own until 05/06.

Took me a long time to forgive Lehmann for the first goal we conceded against Chelsea in the 2004 quarter final.

Vini Jr wanting Rice’s shirt!

JazzG

Something was to happen to him? Odegaard better watch his back!

Relationship ended with Rice if he ever Tonya Hardings Øde ...

So interesting. Mikel works on the detail so much. Recon advice on body orientation is a big reason we’re seeing Havertz improve

Coombs

lorddulaarsenal Arteta is obsessed with body position in each situation. Saw a video of him coaching at City ranting at Sterling about how to receive the ball when near the touchline.

that was the vid that convinced many gooners he was the man for the role. +That other All or Nothing citeh vid showing him explaining JDP tactics.

Ode, Rice and Havertz each ran 11,4km on Sunday. They must’ve been shattered.

Now try to imagine that game with Rice playing against us in place of Kovacic.

Qwiss

Claudius also for the first time its a game where if you swapped Ode and KDB we'd have been worse for it.

JazzG

Didn't those three also play twice for their international teams as well? Unreal effort by them.

Rice showing against City what we have missed in midfield, De Bruyne may have lost a yard in pace but still enough to skin most players but Rice completely shut him out.

JazzG

hmmm, didn't give much away but I have noticed Rice does speak sometimes a bit too openly.

Qwiss

Needs some lessons from Tight Lips White.

goon

Not impressed with him as a left 8 I must say. He's had a couple of decent games there but as a 6 he looks world class. With Jorgi starting to drop a little I'd be tempted to drop him back.

Qwiss

goon showed again today why he's not good enough at 6. Leave him in the 8.

Gazza M

goon our best spell has come with jorgi at pivot and rice higher though?

regardless, he looks to have hit a wall. its his first season at a CL club. will take alot of learnings from how to pace himself

goon

Qwiss

We dominated that first half and got the ball into the Villa final third time and again.

The second half has nothing to do with him, the whole team stopped pressing and dropped off.

Mirth

Agreed - he’s not a 6 in this system
