Declan Rice has hailed Arsenal’s summer signing as “unreal” after the Gunners strengthened their position at the top of the Premier League table.
Arsenal extended their lead at the summit with another important result, keeping their momentum going as the title race continues to build. The victory ensured Mikel Arteta’s side remained out in front, with the North London club continuing to set the pace in England’s top flight.
After the final whistle, Rice was quick to single out one of the new arrivals for special praise, admitting he has been impressed by the impact made since joining in the summer.
“He’s been unreal,” Rice said, underlining how quickly the player has settled into Arteta’s system and the influence he is already having on Arsenal’s performances.
Rice’s comments reflect the mood around the squad as Arsenal look to maintain their strong start and keep pushing for consistency at both ends of the pitch. The midfielder has been central to that run himself, but he was keen to highlight the contribution of the summer recruit after another night that ended with Arsenal still leading the Premier League.
