UCL: He looks shattered – Gabby Agbonlahor on Arsenal’s Declan Rice
Former Captain Raises Concerns Over Arsenal’s Fatigue
Former Aston Villa captain Gabby Agbonlahor has expressed concerns regarding the condition of Arsenal midfielder Declan Rice, suggesting he appears fatigued.
Agbonlahor’s remarks followed Arsenal’s 1-1 draw against Atletico Madrid in the first leg of the Champions League semi-final on Wednesday.
In an interview with talkSPORT, Agbonlahor noted that Arsenal’s heavy fixture schedule might be taking a toll on the team. “Arsenal are looking really tired,” he said. “I hope this doesn’t affect them, as they have a chance of winning two trophies.”
He highlighted the significant difference in games played this season, stating that Arsenal has competed in 57 matches, while upcoming opponent Fulham has only played 41.
“Watching Declan Rice, especially during the match on Saturday, he looks shattered,” Agbonlahor added, emphasizing his concern for the team’s performance as the season progresses.
