Arsenal legend Patrick Vieira has named midfielder, Declan Rice as the Gunners player he loves watching play.
The Frenchman described the England midfielder as a winner.
Rice has been brilliant for Mikel Arteta’s side this season.
He has netted eight goals and provided 10 assists from 49 matches across competitions for Arsenal.
Speaking to The Telegraph, as cited by TBR Football, Vieira said: “I don’t like to make comparisons, because I think we are all different with our strengths and weaknesses.
“But I think first is all the credit with the manager, with Mikel, because I think from Declan being a holding midfielder, he went a little bit more as the eight.
“And then, of course, he is the player that I love watching. I love his spirit.
“I love his competitiveness. I like the fact that he’s always going forward and he is a winner.”
Rice joined Arsenal from Premier League club West Ham United in 2023
