Declan Rice has been brilliant for Arsenal this season.

The England international has been given due credit for his performances, with many even suggesting that Rice should be Player of the Year.

However, speaking to The Mirror, Ian Wright has suggested that there’s still one aspect of Rice’s game that is underrated.

Indeed, according to the pundit, Rice’s consistency is an underrated aspect of his game, claiming that it’s not normal the way he can turn up every week and put in solid performance after solid performance.

Declan Rice’s consistency is underrated

Wright shared his verdict on the Arsenal star.

“Ben White has been magnificent, but I think the transformation in our team has been Declan Rice. He has to get a mention,” Wright said.

“I think the reason we were able to push Manchester City even further this season is because of him and his eight, nine out of 10 performances every week. I think his levels, and his consistency is something that is underrated.

“He’s getting a lot of love now and it’s rightly so, but I still think it’s underrated. We are seeing it as normal and what the man’s doing at the moment for us is not normal, and fingers crossed, he can do it again next season.”

Declan Rice never puts a foot wrong

Wright is spot on, Rice is one of the most consistent players in the league.

While Arsenal have had their ups and downs at times this season, Rice has put on masterclass after masterclass in the midfield.

Other than the game at Craven Cottage against Fulham back in December, it’s hard to remember a genuinely poor performance for Rice in an Arsenal shirt.

Rice is praised for a number of different key attributes, but perhaps the most important attribute Rice has is his consistency and ability to turn up and perform every single week.
