Agree. He’s no Gundogan or Silva replacement and they’ve signed Kovacic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arsenal will go for Caicedo, he is Chelsea’s number one target but apparently prefers Arsenal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huge fee for him, he’s not homegrown either right? one good season and the asking price is 80m it’s nuts Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Be canny funny if Arsenal lose out after needlessly lowballing West Ham. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazzy Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 If Rice knows what's good for him he goes to Man City. Obviously he gets MORE games at Aresnal but arguably still plays 30+ at City. The biggest factor has to be Pep though, surely no player would choose Arteta over him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally think they’re both great options for him but if he cares about winning things then Man City are of course the number one option. Probably the number one option in world football if you want silverware Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERTOON Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Would imagine Phillips will be forced out of city now if rice goes there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Yeah, wouldn't be surprised if Man City are buying him just so that Arsenal don't challenge them for the title. Makes sense TBH. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me personally I’d much rather fight against Man City and take the title from them than join them and almost be guaranteed it on a plate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Icarus Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 He'd be playing instead of Gundogan you'd think, but then rotation also comes into it. I definitely don't think he'd be wasted like Phillips has been. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 He'd replace Stones in that 2-man midfield. Unless they go back to a 4-3-3 and use Rice, Kova and Rodri as their 3. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
