If our currency was hyperbole, Adrian Durham would be depositing a sizeable cheque at the bank with his latest claim that Declan Rice reads the game better than Liverpool star Fabinho.
Let’s be honest here, Rice is undoubtedly talented, but it’s a classic case of over-hyping in-form English players.
At 21-years-old, the Hammers star has a long way to go before being considered in the same breath as the Brazilian, though, at this point, we’re no longer surprised by the thoughts of the TalkSPORT host.
Durham is entitled to his opinion, but it’s not one we share here at the EOTK.

👏 “Rolls Royces’ aren’t workmanlike…”
😍 “There’s a way he plays which is so silky, it’s gorgeous!”
🙌 “His reading of the game, I’d say it’s slightly better than Fabinho’s who’s one of the best in the league.”@talkSPORTDrive heaps the praise on to #WHUFC star Declan Rice pic.twitter.com/SitFyFg66r

I’m a West Ham supporter. Have to tell you I gave up listening to Adrian Durham and the radio station a long time ago. Leave yo to draw your own conclusions as to why !
You boys keep underestimating Rice and overhyping you’re own players. Suits all of us.
