FORMER West Ham skipper Declan Rice made a triumphant return to the London Stadium today, setting up two and scoring in a shocking 6-0 demolition job by Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal.
The fickle home fans, who began booing every time Rice touched the ball, were forced to eat their words as they streamed for the exits long before the half-time whistle.
The Gunners’ title bid hit the buffers in this fixture last season when they blew a two-goal lead to draw 2-2.
