Declan Rice followed his impressive performance against Chelsea last weekend with a fine display against Stoke City in the Premier League on Monday night.

The West Ham United centre-back's stock continues to rise as the weeks pass, and it is not a surprise that the club's supporters are excited about the 19-year-old.

Rice's composure on the ball against Stoke was there for all to see, and there is every reason to believe that the Republic of Ireland international will be a key player for the Hammers moving forward.

Rice, who is valued at £1.8m by transfermarkt.co.uk, has actually made 21 Premier League appearances for West Ham this season, and has played the full 90 minutes in each of the club's last three league matches.

West Ham were frustrated in their 1-1 draw with Stoke at the London Stadium, but the club's supporters were keen to pay tribute to the performance of youngster Rice once again.
