Think he'd have got a second yellow there if this wasn't a friendly.

He'd have been playing for Man. City now if the betting accusations hadn't occurred so it's a strange one as with his style you wouldn't expect him to commit so many fouls.

Yeah making a load of iffy tackles when under a betting cloud isn't sus at all

Is Rice good enough at the intricate stuff to be considered world class?

Rice is overrated imo. He’s a good player but nothing more. He doesn’t do anything quick, always wants 3 touches. He’s getting a lot of praise for his Arsenal performances but the reality is they have less points at this point of the season than they did last season. Been no better than Xhaka was last season!

Chilwell is normally very good going forward btw. Very bad day, but to say he's awful is harsh.

This. He's always been dangerous against us in league games. But he's got Shaun Teale's flip flops on tonight

He's there because no one else is, he's not good enough, hasn't been for a while 

England really need to find a new LB, can't rely on shaw

He gets by due to his engine and drive. The English Meatball but with a flat arse.

Xhaka's passing is much superior. Very underrated part of his game.

Rice is a quality old school DMC

The new breed pivot role where he takes 80 touches a game though, 5 yard pass and move always available... He's not the world class player he's made out to be

Jill Scott 'the touch from the defender puts him off' it doesn't just put him off, it directly affects his shot. Odd comment.

Tbf she was defending him after the commentator had slated him.

Agree, neither are a patch on Rodri imo. He is pure class!
