Tottenham getting away with it again.

Basically saved by the width of the goal line 

Everton more than deserved a draw.

 

Their high line tactics are crazy. But I think they'll only improve when Maddison, Bentancur return

Why didn’t we throw everything at signing Declan Rice. Absolutely ridiculous, looks the real deal. In fact would of paid what we paid for both Enzo and Caicedo to get him. 

Rice is a bang average player, easier to look better in a settled team.

Because we wanted to waste money elsewhere. He has been such a key signing for them so far.

He's done fuckall apart from some lucky deflected goals , basic English lump , arsenal are no better than last season. Middle of the road side

He sucks 

Severely disagree. Suddenly Arsenal went from a side who were all style and no substance to a team who have got some real grit. They have actually won a lot of games this season without actually playing as well as they did last season. What changed? Declan Rice in their starting 11. To say otherwise is just being ridiculous. Would swap any of our midfielders for him without hesitation. Also saying that we would probably turn him shit.

Probably will be Arsenals player of the season. Look how many key headers, tackles and interceptions he has made so far in this game alone never mind over the season. Only better midfielder in the PL right now is Rodri. Not even debatable. Wouldn’t hesitate to swap any of our guys for him. Definitely done more to warrant being worth £100m than Enzo and Caicedo. Without question. Also so much more obvious how much of an impact he has on their team.

They’ve been good for 1.5 years now 

And Rice is boring but he is at least consistently doing the dirty work in midfield - hold position, recover the ball. Not the skill sets to pay 100 m for but there is some value to being one of the best in the league at the boring, dirty work in midfield

Precisely what Caicedo was bought for too…. There is a lot said in being a top top midfielder who contributes these things to a team. And can be relied upon every week to do so.

People have short memories on here, Maka, Mikel, Ramires, Matic, Kante - all players who yes could do other things but were primarily their best assets and contributions were to do the bits that the likes of Rice & Rodri do so so well for their sides.

There's also this.

Assuming this ends with draw.

PL table after 18 rounds last and this season:

Arsenal 46 to 40 

West Ham 14 to 30

Where is positive Rice effect?

WH was really smart to invest that money in Alvarez and JWP.
