It’s a shame” West ham hot star release huge statement after formal star betrayal sent him unbelievable text….

Declan Rice obviously still has a genuine love for West Ham, despite the fact that some fans may not be on the same page as him when he defected to Arsenal.
Declan Rice’s choice to advocate for a summer transfer to Arsenal rather than Man City hurt feelings for some West Ham supporters.

Many Hammers fans were and still are incensed with him.

But aside from a little theatrical joshing, when Rice has played West Ham for the Gunners this season, the majority’s appreciation has been evident.
Two clubs that have never truly shared a rivalry have developed one of sorts as a result of the £105 million transfer.

Unlikecertain former West Ham academy graduates who have moved on to Premier League rivals, Rice has carried himself with great class and dignity since departing the London Stadium for The Emirates.

He refused to celebrate when he scored that goal in that 6-0 win over his former team recently.

And he even admitted the goal was extremely bittersweet for him after the game.

A goal Rice certainly did enjoy, though, was one of several special strikes in West Ham’s recent 5-0 Europa League win over Freiburg.

Rice is sitting pretty at the top of the league with Arsenal. And he has helped the Gunners into the quarter-finals of the Champions League where they will face Bayern Munich.

The likes of Frank Lampard in the past said they didn’t care about West Ham’s results after they left and that they never watched them play.

But Rice tuned in to watch West Ham’s win over Freiburg – which has set up a tough quarter-final against Bundesliga champions elect Bayer Leverkusen.

Cresswell reveals what Rice sent him after ‘special’ goal

His old Hammers teammate Aaron Cresswell scored with a beautiful strike in that game to make it 3-0.

The match also featured lovely goals from Mohammed Kudus too.

NowCresswell has shared the message Arsenal’s Rice sent him after his ‘special’ goal for West Ham recently.

It was another special (moment), it was amazing because we were 2-0 up and that goal kind of took the pressure off type of thing,” Cresswell said on The Iron Cast.

“To score in any European competition is amazing and I remember it coming to me on the edge of the box and I’m thinking ‘I’m gonna hit this’ but it kind of like sat up and I’m thinking if I hit it (first time) it’s going to go wide.

“I’m thinking ‘Should I have took this (touch)’ and then everything just opened up in slow motion type of thing and I had so much time and I managed to pick the bottom corner and run off with a great smile!

‘You need to calm down’

“I remember Dec sent me a voice note after it saying: ‘Mate what are you doing giving it a knee slide, you’re nearly 40, you need to calm down!’

“I was just so happy to score!”

Class that from Rice and shows he does still care about his old club and teammates.

He left West Ham to play Champions League football and will have that two years in a row.

West Ham were able to sign some top players with the money.

Now let’s dream they can help the Hammers join Rice at Europe’s top table by lifting the Europa League this season.
