At 22, Declan Rice has the football world at his feet with West Ham riding high and England bidding for European Championship glory this summer.
Talking to Declan, I do feel he is ‘old school’ at a time when modern players are seen to struggle with any criticism or hardship.
There was an incident at the start of his career when manager David Moyes pulled him up for costing West Ham a goal against Arsenal.
Some felt the manager was harsh but Declan considers it an important part of his education.
