Declan Rice reacts to Viktor Gyokeres' display vs Bournemouth

Arsenal midfielder Declan Rice has heaped praise on Viktor Gyokeres following the club's 3-2 Premier League win over Bournemouth on the road.

The north London giants picked up a fifth-straight victory after a hard-fought display against the Cherries. Gyokeres was not on the scoresheet again, but he played a big part in the second goal by freeing up space for Rice to score.

Speaking after the game, Rice was asked about Gyokeres' workrate in the final third. He said that the Swede is working so hard and it will start to click for him sooner rather than later.

He said: "It's tough for him, because defenders are so tight to him, but he is working so hard. I see him in training, I see how he works. Such a good guy. It will start to click for him."

Arsenal have moved six points ahead of Aston Villa after today's win. They are also seven points in front of Manchester City, who have a game in hand against Chelsea at home tomorrow.

The Gunners will be hoping that the Blues deny the Cityzens a victory and boost their title pursuit. Arsenal's next league game will be against Liverpool at the Emirates Stadium.
