Gunners fans react to Chelsea, Arsenal target Rice joke with Saka in viral video

March 22nd, 2023 by Olasunkanmi Ibikunle

Arsenal fans are convinced Declan Rice will join the club in a summer transfer after a clip from the England camp emerged.

Rice, 24, is in the Three Lions squad that met at St George’s Park yesterday ahead of the Euro 2024 qualifiers against Italy and Ukraine.

The West Ham skipper rocked up with a fresh new trim – and Gunners supporters are hoping to see him in a fresh new kit come the new season.

Viewers watching the England arrivals video on YouTube spotted the warm embrace Rice gave Bukayo Saka when he rocked up.

Saka, 21, walked into the room and immediately Rice gave him banter about his recent celebrity phone calls.

Rice shouted: “He’s been on FaceTime with Kim Kardashian bruv, he doesn’t want us anymore.”

The winger laughed and replied: “Do you want me to say hello to you or not?”

Rice then gave him a big smile and a massive hug, telling Saka: “It’s good to see you my friend.”

Luke Shaw then welcomes Saka, too.

But plenty of Arsenal fans clipped the video of the touching moment with the West Ham midfielder and want to see more of the same in 2023-24.

One said: “Saka and Rice bromance already okkk.”

Another joked: “Saka: Welcome to Arsenal, Rice. Rice: Thank you, Saka.”

A third added: “You can tell how much every player loves Saka, can’t wait for Rice to be at the Arsenal next season.”

And a final user wrote: “Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka is the bromance we want to see flourish at the Arsenal.”

Rice has rejected the offer of a new contract at the London Stadium.

Keen to stay in London and play in the Champions League, Arsenal could be the suitable next destination for one of the Premier League’s top midfielders.

And Rice will no doubt have the likes of Saka and fellow Gunner Aaron Ramsdale working as Mikel Arteta’s agents to try and convince him to make the switch across the capital.

(Watch late dramatic scenes on video) David De Gea rescues three points for Man United as West Ham surrender early lead

September 19th, 2021 by Olasunkanmi Ibikunle

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer rushed on to the pitch at full time to congratulate David de Gea, who was mobbed by his teammates.

The goalkeeper’s stoppage time penalty saves ensured Jesse Lingard’s goal on his return to West Ham earned Manchester United another away victory in a match they trailed.

Jesse Lingard came back to haunt his former club with an 89th minute wondergoal at the London Stadium.

But the drama was not done there as the Hammers were given a 92nd minute penalty from a Luke Shaw handball.

And in scenes reminiscent of Euro 2020, West Ham captain Mark Noble was subbed on to take the kick, which he then saw SAVED by David de Gea.

Said Benrahma had given the hosts a first half lead, only to see it cancelled out by Cristiano Ronaldo.

De Gea dived to his left and clawed away Noble’s spotkick.

It’s a poor penalty from Noble, who put it the perfect height for the goalkeeper and not quite in the corner. The debate will start immediately as to whether the midfielder should have taken the kick with his only touch of the game.

(Watch Video) Cristiano Ronaldo scores again as veteran drags Man United level! 35’… West Ham 1-1 Man United

September 19th, 2021 by Olasunkanmi Ibikunle

Cristiano Ronaldo has scored AGAIN to bring the Red Devils level after Raphael Varane deflected Said Benrahma’s shot into the net.

Four goals in three games for the 36-year-old as he pounced on a cross.

Lukasz Fabianski saved the volley but Ronaldo smashed in the rebound.

Undeterred by his previous miss, the striker was alert to a cross slipped into the box by Bruno Fernandes, and although his first effort was blocked by Fabianski, Ronaldo followed up to convert from close range.

There’s an anxious wait while VAR check for an offside against the goalscorer, but replays showed that Aaron Cresswell’s foot had played the striker on.
