"There's no beating around the bush. We have to perform better than we did against Bournemouth and you can say tonight [against Sporting] as well."
"Recently, we probably have made many more errors than we had done in previous weeks. It's about doing the basics to a better level - just the five, 10-yard passes that we're giving away a bit sloppily."
"The Etihad is the ultimate test - but it's why we play this game. So, bring it on."
"To go there and win would be a massive statement and, look, these boys are ready for it."
Declan Rice described Arsenal's upcoming match against Manchester City as the ultimate test in their title race. After a recent defeat to Bournemouth, Arsenal's lead has narrowed to six points, with City in second place. Despite qualifying for the Champions League semi-finals, Arsenal's recent domestic form has been poor, losing three consecutive matches. Rice acknowledged the need for improved performances and emphasized the importance of basic skills. He expressed confidence in facing City, highlighting the significance of such high-stakes matches in the Premier League.
