Former AFTV member Troopz has reacted to Declan Rice’s last minute winner in Arsenal’s 4-3 victory over Luton on Tuesday evening.
Declan Rice’s Arsenal Impact
Since joining the Gunners from West Ham for £105m in the summer, Rice has impressed both fans and pundits with his consistency and assuredness in Arsenal’s midfield.
However, having notched 3 goals and 1 assist from midfield in the Premier League this season the England midfielder’s impact in front of goal has also been a talking point.
Rice’s first Premier League goal for the club arrived in early September in the form of a crucial 96th minute strike to give the Gunners a 2-1 lead against Manchester United, with Arsenal eventually running out 3-1 winners.
The former West Ham captain’s next goal came against former club Chelsea in October. Having gone 2-0 down in the first half, Rice’s 77th minute strike rallied his Arsenal side to a 2-2 draw.
Finally, Rice’s most recent strike came in the form of a 97th minute winner in a 4-3 victory over Luton Town at Kenilworth Road. Rice’s last-gasp header got Arsenal out of jail after a topsy-turvy game for live betting punters that was thrilling for neutral football fans.
As a result, Rice’s goals for Arsenal this season have secured an additional 5 points for the Gunners seeing them go 5 points clear at the top of the Premier League.
