Declan Rice

[wolviedinho]

As much as I want us to sign Rice, If he wants Arsenal first then aren’t we the sloppy second? Not being arrogant but we are the best team in Europe, soon to be the world, have Pep fucking guardiola as our manager and Rice still seems to not have the bollocks to challenge himself ?

Nothing wrong with sloppy seconds -:)

 

[Gio's mate]

I'm happy either way, if he comes we win trophies, if he doesn't come we win trophies.

Looks like we are prepared to play the long grain on this one.

 

[Nellies left peg]

Fuckinell the arsenal fans in here are a bunch of insufferable cunts aren’t they.

Bottling the league probably does that to you when they were celebrating in January like they’d won it

 

[urban genie]

Maybe he will but what’s the odds?

very high, he obviously is skillfull on the ball and many west ham fans think he is better than just sitting as a DM, we have just lost gundo, potentially could lose berny and mahrez and kev has half a season at best in him.

Pep could see him expanding from the role he plays at west ham into a more box to box or forward midfileder, he could potentially play 80-90% of our games depending on what we are buyng him for.

This is why Pep is a genius, he doesn't buy a player for just what they do, but what they could become and evolve into.

Crazy how angry and abusive some people get for someone having a different opinion. I don’t agree with the arsenal fans totally but they are entitled to their opinion.

Like a cult on here at times

I guess Brexit passed you by.

 

[hello]

Let’s not forget that at Christmas time Partey and Xhaka were being hailed as the best centre miss in the country. That ended well didn’t it?

I know it was a typo or more likely autocorrect but it’s actually true they do miss a hell of a lot

I‘m easily worth 100m ;)

That’s because your special 8-)

 

[r.soleofsalford]

Are we now a big club? -:)

Arseholes don’t have opinions!

Watch it

 

[Nicholas van Whatsisface]

Maybe I'm missing something, but I cannot understand the clamour for Rice. I've not watched him extensively but what does he actually do well to justify that monumental price tag? Personally I think Phillips is the better footballer

I’m in a similar position on this one mate.

Decent player and all that, but I don’t really think he’s what we need - for me, we’d be far better served focusing our investment further up the pitch to start replacing KDB, Bernardo and Gundo. We look very light in attacking midfield, and Rice simply isn’t that kind of player.

We’ve got Rodri, Stones, Phillips and Lewis who to varying degrees can all play a similar role, so I just don’t see the urgent need!

He’s also way over-priced at anywhere near £100m. We paid that for Jack, granted, but I believe there were both on and off the pitch considerations behind that fee that we simply don’t get with Rice.

I trust the Club, so if we are actually in for him I know Pep will have a clear plan for his role in the team - but if me much happier if we were in for someone like Szoboszlai instead.

That’s exactly what I’ve been saying, they are pinning everything on signing Rice.

Oops mids autocorrected to miss

Odds on fav for them with the bookies.

Hope so, trust the process, we normally end up with a better purchase.

The apotheosis of Pep is complete

I dont rate him really but then i was wrong about grealish at the start , i just think it is funny they are desperately sweating on our forum , that jack is prime to call us cheats if the prem charges are true , i will bookmark this post !

 

[Eoiyflem]

In these markets the bookies generally don't have any inside info unless a medical etc is announced, prices are purely based on the amount of money being placed on each team. Wouldn't read anything into it, those odds change with the wind

 

[St.Pauli support]

For a very good reason, he's the missing link.

A top team needs a great spine. When we have Dias - Rodri - Haaland,
what do they have?

If Rice signs for us, all available replacements are a painful step down.

They are relying on one man to gain them the PL trophy! They are convinced they “are back” but they pushed in a season that only City gave chase. This season I expect 4 teams to be in the mix.
