“Arsenal can’t be losing three games in a row” – Declan Rice
Declan Rice must be relishing his experience at the Emirates Stadium, undoubtedly feeling it’s the rightful place for him.
Since his £105 million move to Arsenal, he continues to progress and adapt seamlessly to the Arsenal culture.
His growth has been evident, and his assimilation into the Arsenal way of life is noteworthy.
Listening to him talk, one can’t help but admire his winning mentality. Clearly, Arsenal is a club that champions success, and Rice, following the 2-0 victory against Sevilla on Wednesday night, expressed confidence in the team’s brilliance, method, and the successful execution of their game plan.
Speaking on TNT after the match, he said, “Tough game. We knew what to expect, and we knew it was a big night. We wanted to get three points on the board. That was key tareget. “After the upset in the cup and on the weekend, a club like Arsenal can’t be losing three games in a row. The manager made that clear.
“Sometimes when you’re playing against a back five, it’s hard to break down, but we kept persisting.”

Mikel Arteta’s tactical brilliance has long been recognized, and the transformation of Arsenal under his guidance is nothing short of astonishing. The team not only plays entertaining football but also consistently secures positive results and victories.
Highlighting Arteta’s effectiveness, a former West Ham player acknowledges the Spaniard’s adept guidance and the players’ genuine admiration for him.
According to him, Arteta’s passion and energetic involvement on the sidelines are often misunderstood, but the players see it as a reflection of his deep engagement with the game.
Describing Arteta as a teacher-like figure in the changing room, the player expresses the team’s affection for their manager.
“We love it. You see how passionate he is. Sometimes he gets criticized for how he is on the sidelines, but he’s living the game through us. He’s so energetic, and the way he speaks, he’s like a teacher the way he is in the changing room with us,” added Rice.
With a promising chance to progress to the UEFA Champions League knockout stages, Arsenal’s upcoming match against Lens holds significance.
The hope is that the team can carry their determined spirit into the knockout rounds, aiming to establish themselves as a formidable presence at the highest levels of competition.
