Arsenal have a strong interest in Declan Rice and the numbers prove the 'overrated' tags surrounding the England international are simply myths after Moises ...

In terms of dispossessing dribbles, Rice stands out again with 66.7% of the percentage of dribblers faced tackled compared to Caicedo (61.4%) and Lavia (47.8%). This extends when talking about the progressive distance per 90 Rice (136.7y) carries the ball compared to Caicedo (78.9y) and Lavia (71.9y). In terms of miscontrols, Rice (0.65) again comes out on top per 90 against Caicedo (1.16) and Lavia (0.92). Any of these three players would be a good move for Arsenal and certainly add quality to the team that once in possession of Mikel Arteta can be improved to exciting levels. Defending the box is key in high-pressure moments and Rice has 1.54 clearances per 90 compared to Caicedo’s 0.91 and Lavia's 0.72. Rice’s aerial duel win percentage of 70.5% beats Caicedo and Lavia who both have 62.5%. However, the myths surrounding Rice and suggestions of him being overrated or technically restricted can certainly be put to bed. These numbers aren’t to suggest that Caicedo and Lavia are poor technically, quite the opposite. The most widely agreed upon definition would be how a player uses the ball be it with close control, dribbling, take-ons, quickness of thought and especially passing to define their technical ability.
