Jamie Carragher has hailed Declan Rice's performance in Arsenal's 1-0 win over Crystal Palace as outstanding, with fellow pundit Gary Neville suggesting the midfielder's character can help the Gunners to secure the Premier League title.
Rice was named as man of the match in Arsenal's hard fought win at Selhurst Park, with Martin Odegaard's penalty the difference between the two sides.
The England midfielder helped the Gunners to preserve their narrow advantage after Takehiro Tomiyasu was sent off in the second half for two bookable offences.
Carragher highlighted Rice's role at the base of Arsenal's midfield, with the £105million summer signing from West Ham providing crucial cover for the defence as well as driving the team forward.
