Edu and his team have a big job this summer, they need to prove that they can close a big deal. So far their track record leaves a lot to be desired.
Lol I'll be in a retirement home by then
Rice is a fat no from me brother hawk, he's not worth breaking the bank on. Kept thinking about his entitled status as England star but more likely that'll dwindle from his move to Arsenal than the other way around.Which are precisely the reasons why we should break the bank for him in the summer.
We did it for that dud, Pepe & Rice is a lot more worthy of an extraordinary sum.
He will anchor our midfield, offering stability and leadership well into his 30's.
We can go for Kolo Muani the next summer as there's no way he's leaving Frankfurt this year.
What’s everyone obsession with Rice?
Every journalist who covers Arsenal was briefed that he’s our main summer target.What’s everyone obsession with Rice?
Not to mention rice cakes, rice pudding, & rice crispies !Let's be honest, you'll be hard pressed to find a starch so versatile that it can pair exceptionally with butter chicken, machaca & shrimp creole. And that's only the few dishes off the top of my head![]()
West Ham have informed media they want 120 million + adds on for him. Yeah only Chelsea will touch that

Quality player who fits the age profile of the squad and can anchor the midfield for the next 6-7 years. Add in the fact that he's apparently one of the favorites to take over from Kane as England captain and all of the preferential treatment in the PL that we know comes with that role. It would be a very good signing. Would I prefer Bellingham(though they're obviously different kinds of player) if I had to choose between them? Of course but given that there's real smoke about him becoming an Arsenal player, it's easy to be excited by that prospect.What’s everyone obsession with Rice?

It’s true though. Arsenal decided to feed the media about rice. Why would they do that?
We need to invest in midfield agreed.
Hope we don't block Patino/MLS/Nwaneri. The romantic in me would be thrilled if they took some of squad places of Xhaka/Partey/Lokonga/Elneny in a couple of years.
