Hammers fans react as Rice reacts to Man United victory amid links
Plenty of West Ham United fans are lauding Declan Rice following his display in Sunday’s 2-0 win against Manchester United at the London Stadium.
The 20-year-old has, of course, been the subject of regular transfer talk around Man United but looked wholeheartedly committed to the Hammers as he controlled the midfield alongside Mark Noble.
After full-time, Rice summed up his emotions with a one-word tweet and many are replying by showering him with love and support…

Read West Ham’s verdict
Following months of speculation regarding Rice’s potential move to United, it must have been terribly refreshing for Hammers fans to watch him help run the show on Sunday.
From the match alone, it genuinely seems like joining Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side would be a step down from the way West Ham are currently playing.
If Manuel Pellegrini’s side can keep this impressive form up, you really wouldn’t be surprised to see them finish above the Red Devils this term.
