Congratulations to Arsenal. The transfer that pulled everything together was Declan Rice, what a player. Hopefully we can start closing the gap next season under Xabi.

Shame we let him go. I wonder who made that decision?

Who let him go, Tom?

I assume it was head of youth development and maybe the then SD under RA's ownership.

I think Rice is a very good player, but I don't regard him as world class. We let him go when he was 14. Many players develop later, and some shine and then never make it. The more interesting question is, why did we let KDB and Salah go?

The KDB, Salah conundrum. Did they want to go, or did Jose push them? Depends what story I believe.
