Chelsea youngster Trevoh Chalobah has praised West Ham United midfielder Declan Rice on Twitter for his performance against Leicester City on Monday evening.
Chalobah, who can play as a central defender or as a defensive midfielder, has said that Rice is a big player.
The Hammers got the better of Leicester 4-1 at London Stadium in the Premier League last night.
Brendan Rodgers’s Leicester were reduced to 10 men in the 40th minute.
How did Declan Rice play?
Rice, who can play as a central defender or as a defensive midfielder, is one of the best young players in the Premier League and is a big player for West Ham.
The West Ham star may be 22, but he is very experienced and played a big role in England reaching the Euro 2020 final this summer.
Against Leicester on Monday evening, Rice was an imposing figure in the middle of the park and dominated central midfield.
The 22-year-old constantly stopped Leicester’s attacks and did not allow them to play their usual free-flowing game.
Rice also helped in building West Ham’s attacks and provided an assist.
Chalobah, a Premier League rival, publicly praising Rice shows just how good the West Ham star was last night.
