Mikel Arteta says star midfielder Declan Rice is ready for Arsenal’s Premier League title charge, despite England boss Thomas Tuchel claiming he is at about ’70%’ full fitness. TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Intro. 00:18 - Criticism of withdrawals: it’s part of the narrative, I understand it but hope it was the same when we had loads of injured players. 00:55 - How long do you dwell on defeats: it’s like a ball of poison in your tummy, take it out as quick as possible. Make sure the fire is still there. 01:54 - Kepa: he’s ready. I’m never going to judge a player because he’s made an error, it’s part of football. Anyone could have done that. 02:17 - Has he needed a shoulder to lean on?: I don’t know if he needed it, but he had it. He has loads of experience. More than ready. 02:53 - Rice: he’s been phenomenal, the fact he’s been able to perform talks about how much he wants to play for us and win. 03:33 - Consider how much a player wants to play in a World Cup: everything is in consideration. We need to commit to this moment, which is Arsenal. @HaytersTV – Football Up Close.
