Declan Rice - Page 5 - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Starting immediately Rice (illness) is in the starting XI for Saturday's match against Wolves.

Impact Rice is in the team Saturday after overcoming an illness, passing his testing to see a starting spot immediately. He should stick in the starting role when fit, only missing two starts all season when fit.

Impact Rice missed the Champions League clash against Brugge due to illness but could be back available for Saturday's clash against Wolves if he passes a late fitness test on Friday. Rice has been the most consistent player for the Gunners this season, therefore his presence would be a significant boost for them. If he had to miss the game, Mikel Merino would start in midfield again in his place.

Impact Rice isn't an option for Wednesday's clash due to an illness. The midfielder is a huge blow in the starting XI as he has been arguably the most consistent Arsenal performer this season. An illness doesn't figure to be a long-term concern, so Rice could be back as soon as a Saturday clash with Wolves.

Doesn't train Tuesday Rice was not in team training Tuesday and is a late call for Wednesday's match against Club Brugge, according to Simon Collings of the Standard.

Impact Rice was not in team training inside as he joined a few other members for indoor training, appearing to be dealing with some sort of pain or injury. This will leave the midfielder as a late call for the contest, with it to be decided if he will travel to Belgium for the contest. He has only missed one start all season, so this is something to monitor, with Mikel Merino or Eberechi Eze as likely options to replace him in the midfield if out.

Cannot find assist Rice had two shots (one on goal), five crosses (three accurate) and two corners in Saturday's 2-1 loss versus Aston Villa.

Impact Rice was accurate in service but was unable to provide what could've been a much-needed assist for Arsenal in a 2-1 setback. The midfielder should remain in a pivotal spot for the Gunners Tuesday against a Club Brugge side which has given up 13 goals through five UCL games.

Makes Starting XI Rice (calf) is in the starting XI for Saturday's clash against Aston Villa.

Impact Rice was forced off late in Wednesday's victory against Brentford due to undisclosed reasons, but he has passed the late fitness test and will start in midfield against Aston Villa on Saturday. The midfielder remains essential for the Gunners as both a central presence and a set piece taker. His availability keeps the structure of the starting XI intact and prevents any need for Mikel Merino to reclaim that role as he will start up front again for that game.

Impact Rice was forced off late in Wednesday's victory against Brentford due to undisclosed reasons, and he will have to undergo a late fitness test after the final training session to know if he can make the squad for Saturday's clash against Aston Villa. The midfielder will hope to be fit for the Gunners since he is a key player in the midfield and the set piece taker, but if he had to miss the game, Mikel Merino could find back his role in the heart of the game against the Villains.

Impact Rice will have to be assessed in the coming hours after being forced off due to injury in Wednesday's win against the Bees. The set-piece taker couldn't carry on due to undisclosed reasons, which raises concern since he often plays full games this season. Rice is already a doubt for Saturday's clash against Aston Villa, and if he had to miss the game, Mikel Merino will likely find a spot in the midfield again for the Gunners.

Impact Rice was subbed off late after suffering what appeared to be a calf injury and his status for Saturday's clash against Aston Villa is in doubt. If he can't go, look for Mikel Merino, Martin Zubimendi and Eberechi Eze to potentially see more playing time on Saturday.

Strong all-around showing Rice registered one shot (one on goal), seven crosses (three accurate) and two corners in Wednesday's 3-1 win against Bayern Munich.

Impact Rice would've had an assist if not for some excellent goalkeeping from Manuel Neuer but the midfielder was in complete command for most of the game with his crosses and defending. He will remain a focal point for Arsenal in Sunday's matchup against Chelsea, the side right behind the Gunners in the EPL table.

It marked his third assist in the Premier League this season and he also has two across four Champions League appearances.

Impact Rice only put one shot on target and only one of his six crosses was considered accurate. The midfielder will get some much-needed rest over the next two weeks, but he'll need to be better for Arsenal to keep up its recent domination of Tottenham in the North London derby.
