Are these past and present midfielders better than Beckham Rice?
We're going to start off with Alex Scott of Bournemouth.
That's quite harsh.
We've got Anderson.
Nope.
Tonali.
No.
Absolutely not.
Oh mate, leave it out.
Tonali.
Beckham Rice.
Yeah right, I'm sorry for even saying it.
We've got Enzo Fernandes.
No.
We've got Verratti.
He's played PSG.
No.
OK.
We've got Caicedo.
That's a big debate.
Nope.
Not at all.
We've got Rodri.
Rodri four years ago.
Yeah, but not current Rodri.
I wouldn't say just due to past injury and what he's got left in his tank now.
We've got Fitenya.
That's quite tough.
That is tough.
I'm going to stick my foot in decks.
Yeah, I like it.
We've got N'Golo Kante.
Definitely getting a bit tougher now.
He's getting tougher.
I'm going to stick my foot in decks.
Yeah, I love it, I love it.
We've got Hedgery.
Good player.
He's a very good player.
Just a good player.
We've got Casemiro.
Prime Casemiro.
Prime Casemiro or current Casemiro.
Are we talking...
No, if it's current Casemiro it's Declan Rice all day long.
OK, I like it.
We've got Tony Cruz.
Good player.
Tony Cruz was a baller.
Different positions though.
Different positions.
So you're going to stick with decks?
Yeah.
OK.
We've got Jude Bellingham.
Again, different positions.
Midfielders, but they play in different positions.
So I'm going to go with Declan Rice.
OK, but now we're on to Xavi.
Do you think you can stick it out?
I can, I can.
And I can take the grief.
No one's out.
I'm on your side.
Yeah, let's just go Declan Rice.
Declan Rice over Xavi, OK.
We've got Modric over Tottenham.
Oh yeah, yeah.
And they're different positions as well.
So let's go Declan's.
We've got Yaya Toure.
Oh, that's a big one.
That really is.
He was an absolute monster.
Better than Declan?
Yaya Toure is a serious, serious...
Good candidate.
Oh mate.
No, no, no.
Declan.
I'll stick with Declan.
OK, right.
We're on to Pirlo.
Pirlo.
Oh, he was a master in midfield.
He really was.
But again, slightly different position.
More advanced.
So I'll go with Declan.
OK, he's gone Declan again.
Right, we're on to Patrick Vieira.
Oh, Patrick Vieira.
Club captain.
Invincible.
Yeah.
Sorry, sorry.
I've got to...
This is a get out clause here.
I can get out of this one safely without disrespecting my boy Declan Rice.
So I'm going to get out on Patrick Vieira.
OK, Patrick Vieira.
There we go.
Guys, let us know in the comments.
Is that the correct choices?
