Our verdict on Rice
Chosen Esiwe
Declan Rice has been in the Arsenal starting eleven for 8 of their 8 league matches, staying on for 84 minutes on average. Minutes are not a worry here. He costs £7.4m and sits in 12.6% of teams.
Over the last 30 days he has averaged 6.3 points a game, which puts him 5th out of 159 regular midfielders. Only a handful at his position are doing better. Underneath the points, his expected goal involvement of 0.26 per 90 minutes ranks 69th in the same group. He also takes corners and indirect free kicks, which adds assist potential.
His price has dropped £0.1m since the start of the season, including a rise this gameweek. Demand is strong: 51,564 more managers have bought him than sold him this gameweek.
Over the next five gameweeks he faces LIV (A), HUL (H), NEW (A), MCI (H) and BRE (A). That run has a bit of everything.
Every figure here comes from the official Fantasy Premier League data and refreshes as the week goes on. We judge minutes first, then form against others in the same position, price movement and the next five fixtures.
