Yeah you're right he's good at 1v1 but football is not only played 1v1.

Matic doesn't have everything you want in a cdm cos he wasn't fast so that's a minus though you don't really need speed but abilities wise I'm a Chelsea fan but I've never seen a more complete cdm than rice. People might say kante was very complete but I tell you what, he wasn't tall, though he made up for it but when we talk about a more complete cdm even rodri is not as complete as rice.rice is fast strong long legs tall, can intercept, can dribble, can move the ball forward like a box to box midfielder, set pieces, can shoot, can pass, leadership, intelligence, mentality, positioning, and he can also play as a CM or a cb. He is that complete. Though rodri might play better cos of maybe a little more intelligence or been in a better team but ability wise rice is more complete, rodri still lacks speed
@@ezekielnwosu1462Declan rice is really good, but how can u compare to someone who’s won 4 League titles (3 Prems, 1 Portuguese), & been player of the year in a league twice at Benfica? A conference league and the fact that he cost over £100m (cough inflation cough) doesn’t put u over the top…there needs to be more respect on Matic name🤷🏾♂️😊
Saka, rice, odegaard, Gabriel would start in every team in world football imo. And the rest of arsenals players are very close to that world class status
Matic and azpi at that time already were elite players with a lot of silverware rice and the other haven't won anything and not even that but a year ago were in teams that played in the bottom half of the table. That's the issue with england they think their the best and they are not even close to it, that's why they never win anything.
Courtouis (2017 Chelsea) Raya (2024 Arsenal)..."i go with Courtouis because RM...dumbest reason ever🤣🤣. That doesnt mean he is not right, but the man asked you when he was at Chelsea😅.
People who didn’t watch matic don’t understand how good he was! Matic was like pep’s Rodri, when he played for Serbia he was their best player and won their best player 2 times. On that the year conte and mourinho had him he was the best 6 in the prem by far… how do we prove this, him and fabrigas played nearly every game till they won the prem. Guys like debruyne and Mikel couldn’t make the team. And conte same thing but him and kante.
Apart from azpi which wasn’t an outrageous shout, it’s nice to see an unbiased fan with a bit of intellect. Respect
i hear that, you can support a team and be loyal to it whilst also admitting when another player is better than yours
