That's more like it, think he's been carrying the toe injury a bit, looks like he's slowly getting back to his best for us.

He's everywhere, makes you believe half the team should concede his wages to him.

Even if Gabriel is the soul of this team without those ridiculous corners it'd be all about celebrating 0-0s

Thought we over paid to get him. I stand corrected, just his set piece deliveries justifies the price tag.

I'm not even joking, how many extra goals are we able to score solely because Rice is putting it on a plate.

That was his best game in a long time.

He is another that had a ridiculousy long season last year and with niggling injuries it certainly carried over into this one.

Last night visibly got stronger as the game went on, helped shield the back four, won the ball and passed and carried it well.

Quality from Rice tonight. When he's on it, it's like we have an extra man on the pitch.

I've never agreed with the narrative that he doesn't have the right skillset to play as a 6 for us. I think he does but a lot of fans take the fact that Arteta has played him more as an 8 as some sort of judgement on his ability to play as a 6.

...and then He woke up sweating !!!
Thought Rice was top yesterday. Hes looking fitter by the game.

I think ive also made my mind up on his best position, he’s a box to box (in the Keane/Vieira mould).

This guy is too good an athlete to just have him sat in front of the back 4.

Really looking forward to his partnership with Zubi, think it’s going to be immense.

I’m coming round to it. He’s been much more progressive the last few games. Just needs a touch more bravery in certain situations.

As a side benefit him getting compared to PV4 as opposed to Gilberto will absolutely finish @Riou and I’m here for it.

The flip side is that @BigPoppaPump was right all along 🙇‍♂️

As I always when fully fit you can't find better all rounded midfielders around.

The 100M price tag will always be the topic and he not 100M player but blame the market not the player rice didn't set his price tag.

We've seen how good he is with Jorginho and Partey, a guy in that mould but a bit younger/fitter/more mobile is in theory the perfect double pivot partner for Rice.
 

Arsenal Quotes

It was a unique moment, a football fairytale. Was there anyone left who still believed I could give that kind of performance? Probably only Arsène Wenger.
