UCL 2024-25: Hungry Rice showing more attacking bite, says Arteta
The HinduArsenal midfielder Declan Rice is back to his best level with more attacking bite to his game, manager Mikel Arteta said of the club’s record signing, who scored the opener in his side’s 3-0 win over Dinamo Zagreb on Wednesday. Rice netted his first Champions League goal inside two minutes to pave the way for a routine victory against the Croatian side that made Arsenal’s place in the last 16 of the competition a virtual certainty. “His intent, his purpose, especially attacking the positions he is taking and how he’s driving with the ball,” Arteta said of the England international. “In the last few weeks he had some big, big open chances to score to affect the game, so overall, I’m very happy because we need to affect the game from those positions and he’s certainly capable of doing that.” Rice rarely disappoints for Arsenal although he had looked jaded in the first half of the season and was left out of the starting lineup for three Premier League games.
