Arsenal fans may have had a nightmare weekend, but there has been some encouraging news from the Emirates regarding Arteta’s dream move for Declan Rice.
Mikel Arteta, according to rumors, has identified Declan Rice as his top summer target.
Every day since then, something new has emerged regarding Arsenal’s pursuit of Rice. The most recent update comes from Adrian Clarke, who told the Athletics Handbrake Off Podcast that Declan Rice is already inquiring about what it’s like to play for Arsenal.
“I can’t reveal my source, but I do know that Declan Rice has been sounding out people connected with Arsenal in regards to, ‘What’s it like there? What’s it really like?’, so that sounds like a positive,” Clarke said.
One thing has been mentioned in almost every report about Rice joining Arsenal: This claim is that, while he will not be cheap, he is one player who could make Arsenal’s midfield unrivalled not only in the Premier League but also in Europe. Who would Arteta bench if Rice joined his project: Thomas Partey or Granit Xhaka?
Daniel O

I read some comments from Wham fans saying that they would need to get in two cm players to replace the work that Rice does
Interesting plan – the PL refs are a bit rubbish but even they’d notice when WHU has 12 players on the pitch.
Or maybe WHU fans are just a little “arithmetically challenged”.
No
Foreign concept to our team I know but it’s called…..rotation!
Team is set up based on opponents strengths and weaknesses + our injuries and tactics.
What is it with Chelsea and Man u? No surprize to hear Haag is after Rice. Are Arsenal scouts for these two teams? Hope it’s a smoke screen for Sergej Milinkovic-Savic. I’m so fed up with these two teams gazumping us
Get used to it my friend, it’s been happening since the PL started and will continue, unless we want to pay out ludicrous sums of kronkie’s money!!!
I have never understood the, to my way of thinking, odd and naive view, that some writers, including DANIEL O, put forward , that by improving our squad with top class players, then existing player will be “put out” .
Those who may be put out are then showing they care far more about being personally picked than they do for the success of the team as a whole and thus they will be no loss if they choose to sulk.
Not that I think even a single one of our present team would sulk, in fact quite tthe reverse.
So no, I dismiss this article as taking a wrong conclusion.It seems to be arguing ,if you take it to its logical conclusion, that the fewer the good players, then the better the team harmony.
I say thats bunk!
Could end up needing to replace partey all together
