Arsenal star helped 'sore loser' Jack Grealish after Man City defeat
14.10.2023 - 11:13 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Declan Rice put club rivalries aside to perk up Jack Grealish after Manchester City's defeat to Arsenal.
Mikel Arteta's side ended a 12-match losing streak to the Blues in the league as a late, deflected goal earned them a 1-0 win last Sunday. Grealish, an unused substitute on the day, was involved in a fiery end to the game as Kyle Walker led heated objections to the behaviour of a former City coach now working for Arsenal.
Speaking on England duty, Grealish said that defeat had been hard to take but that Rice had helped him to get over the defeat as they met up at the national team camp. The City forward picked up an assist in the 1-0 win over Australia and will hope for more minutes against Italy before returning to the Blues with more fitness following his latest injury.

“We got beaten by Arsenal and as much as I’m the worst sore loser ever, the next day I come here and I’m with Declan Rice and he’s one of my best friends,” he told reporters. “That’s the beauty of it.
"Going back in the day, I heard a few of them say they had such a talented squad but I don’t know if they really got on with each other. When we come here, we proper get on.
“Back in the day, I don’t know if people would ‘fake injuries’ but people here, they get injured and want to come here to see the guys instead of staying at their club. Last month I was injured and I came and met up with the guys, stayed for a night. [Bukayo] Saka came and did it. Luke Shaw did. It’s brilliant."
