Arsenal fans were quick to notice Declan Rice signaling a potential hamstring injury during his team's 5-0 win over Crystal Palace. Their concerns were confirmed by Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta.
What Happened?
Rice, the former West Ham captain, was substituted in the 73rd minute of the match and appeared to communicate with Emile Smith Rowe about the issue. He then spoke to Arteta and the coaching staff after leaving the pitch.
Fans React
Arsenal fans expressed their worries about Rice's injury. One fan said, "I pray it is not true," while another remarked, "Hope he'll be OK. 10 days off now so that's good for him." A third fan added, "Knew there would be something to ruin this perfect day."
Arteta's Comments
Arteta addressed Rice's injury concern in a post-match interview, stating, "Declan was feeling something, a sensation in the hamstring at 3-0. Gabriel, he had a tackle I think in the first half on his knee and I think he was a little bit struggling." When asked if it was a serious issue, Arteta replied, "I hope not but let’s see."
Impact on Arsenal
Rice has been a key player for Arsenal this season, starting in all 21 of their Premier League games. If he is sidelined, it will be a significant loss for Arteta's side, especially as Thomas Partey is already on the treatment table. Arsenal ended their winless streak with the comfortable victory over Palace and now have 10 days off before their next game against Nottingham Forest on January 30.
