Gabbidon has taken to Twitter to share his thoughts on the West Ham midfielder. He tweeted that Declan Rice is an outstanding player and he would have loved to play behind him. The 39-year-old referred to Rice as a centre back’s dream as well.

Rice has been outstanding for Manuel Pellegrini’s side this season and he deserves all the praise coming his way.
The Hammers fans will be delighted with the fact that Rice has already committed his long term future to the club. Otherwise, there would be several suitors lining up for his services in the summer.
The young midfielder will look to build on his impressive form and guide his side to a respectable finish this season.
