Declan Rice loves West Ham and has shown nothing but respect to us always.
We couldn’t match his ambitions, but he left respectfully for a very large fee and always gave his all.
He never refused to train, gave his all right until the end and probably stayed a good 2 more years than he could have.
Got stick last week for saying we’re happy to see him succeed. You can hate Arsenal but also feel proud of him deep down, for some odd reason a lot of people can’t separate the two.
All I’ve see is people say his reaction to us being relegated is performative. He spent 10 years at the club, and let’s be honest, deep down would have stayed if we could’ve went to the next level with him. He loves this football club, there’s zero need for him to perform for the cameras.
