Declan Rice

I wouldn't go so far as to say bargain

Plays well at the Etihad so maybe home bargains!:))

If I was the Arsenal chairman who'd been asked for £170m for 2 new players, I'd be gutted when Rice and Havertz walked through the door. FFS last season they got Jesus and Zinchenko for £85m and both these are better.

I think there's some good value in the transfer market from what I can see this summer - £25m for Kovacic, £15m for Hudson-Odoi, £35m for Pau Torres etc, Gundogan free etc etc. I honestly think Arsenal will regret splashing out AGAIN this transfer window.

I'm glad we ducked out if I'm honest, I've never seen anything about him and no way does he come close to Rodri. I think we've saddled them with a decent player who won't win them the league.

Ridiculous fee for an above average player. There's a fella at Fulham called Palhinha who is on a par with Rice and they got him for 20m.

People get carried away with English players and it doesn't make any sense.

Arsenal still trying to agree a deal on structure of the payment.

Imagine West Ham insist on this 12-18 month payment schedule and talks break down lol.

£35m Mac Allister should be included in that list I reckon.. I still can’t understand how that one happened, if Caceido is pushing £100m

It'd be funny if it all fell apart. Oh the sweet joys of spitefulness.

Definitely mate!

Is Zaha on a free too? I'd be tempted to throw in Maddison for £40m too. In fact, even Bellingham at £90m looks like a 'bargain' compared to Rice. Bellingham is a FAR better player.

And then like a sinner before the gates of heaven they come crawling on back to us.

I would imagine that Arsenal will fold and do whatever they want, at this point.

If Rice plays for West Ham next season, it will be hilarious, though. I would love it.
