Crystal Palace manager Roy Hodgson has named Arsenal midfielder Declan Rice as the player every Premier League manager is looking for.
Rice will come up against Hodgson’s Crystal Palace side in the Premier League on Monday.
Rice joined Arsenal in a £105 million move from West Ham last month.
“I think it [central midfield] has always been big,” Hodgson told reporters ahead of the game.
“[Rice] has got strength, he’s got energy, he understands the game very well. He gets from box to box, and when he’s in each of the boxes, he does a really good job. He knows how to defend, and he also has an eye for goal, so really, he’s the type of player that every person is looking for,” Hodgson stated.
