Was watching SKY News thi smorning. Patrick Barclay, for some reason, was asked about players hwo impressed at the Euros. The first name he came up with was Declan Rice. He said he was "magnificent".
That's about as about as poor of a football take I have ever heard. Rice has genuinely been garbage with occasional sparkles of average.
I have no idea why so many rate him so highly. He's refuses to take responsibility for passing the ball forward, often does not present himself as an option when England are being pressed and he even hides behind opposition players so he cannot receive the ball. Even Mainoo looks to take on responsibility. As for football intelligence, Rice is simply not a 6.
Watch him play and and then closely watch Rodri. Miles apart.
