🚨 Declan Rice reveals Mikel Arteta called Arsenal’s World Cup stars after England reached the quarter-finals.
“The morning after our win, I got a phone call from Mikel Arteta congratulating me. He said he wants the World Cup to be won by an Arsenal player.
He didn’t just call me—he called every Arsenal player still involved in the tournament to wish them luck.
I had to joke with him though. I said, ‘Boss, you’re definitely supporting Mikel Merino and David Raya more than us - you are Spain by blood!’ 😂
“He just laughed.

🚨 Wayne Rooney on Declan Rice's set-pieces that inspired England's 4-2 victory:
🗣️ “For the whole of last season, people mocked Arsenal's set-pieces. They called them boring, said they were ruining football and claimed they could never win the biggest trophies playing that way.
Now look at England.
Declan Rice is delivering those same quality dead balls and they've played a huge part in a 4-2 win.
I've watched this World Cup closely and one thing stands out: Arsenal players have consistently produced dangerous set-pieces, with several leading directly to goals.
Maybe the issue was never the set-pieces.
Maybe people were simply frustrated because their own teams didn't have players capable of executing them at that level.
Football fans love effective set-pieces when they're winning games. They only complain when someone else is better at them.”
Bukayo Saka’s reaction to an exclusive Lucozade drink named after him, at the 2026 World Cup England camp… 🤣🥤
🗣️ “Wait… what?! ‘Blukayo Saka’… who is responsible for that?! That’s not calm.” 😅
Morgan Rogers: “It tastes flairy!” 👀
